This is the culmination of hundreds of mug cake attempts... what I have personally found to have the perfect amount of sweetness and texture while still remaining low calorie. Unlike most mug cake recipes, it's not gummy. It's vegan and oil free!

Vegetarian Stout French Onion Soup
I love Irish stout stew and French onion soup. Plus my wife is a vegetarian. So I came up with this infusion that is, in my opinion, amazing! Portobello mushrooms replace cubed beef, and it is all topped off with a Swiss cheese-crusted slice of artisan bread, French onion-soup style. Serve with a frosty stout and enjoy! Happy St. Patrick's Day!
Grandma's Soul Food Pancakes (with Plantains)
My grandmother is from Mississippi. I call these her 'soul food' pancakes because she grew up at a time when people who had very little made simple meals taste super delicious. Every Sunday before church, she made these pancakes to get us out of bed. They have a crepe like texture but are still pancakes and are delicious.
Real Homemade Bagels
