Welcome to late summer, veggie lovers! Here at The Cozy Herbivore, I am buzzing with anticipation and some big news: I'm going to culinary school! Just a few days ago, with my heart in my throat, I gave my resignation to my old job (love you[...]

Baba Ga-what?

Baba Ga-what? It's Baba Ghanoush! And it's as fun to say as it is to eat :) You can serve it as a dip with chips or toasted pita, use it as a spread on a sandwich, or plop some ontop of a salad. So many uses :) Mine kept for about two weeks in the[...]

Lettuce Wraps

I really enjoyed eating these. Because I am such a nice person, I brought these over to a friend's house to share. EJ was a little angry, I think he wanted to hoard them for ourselves! Ingredients: 1 block tofu, drained and diced into small[...]

Marinated Cheeze

Years ago, a friend of mine hosted a Fourth of July bbq and served this marinated cheese dish.  The flavors were totally addictive, and once I went vegan I always dreamt about making this dish with vegan cheeses.  I finally got around to doing[...]

Black Bean Salad

This is a super tasty dip kinda salad. It makes a tasty side, or you can serve it kinda salsa style with tortilla chips. I definitely prefer with tortilla chips. The first time I saw this recipe, I was looking for something vegan to add to my[...]
