A perfectly balanced pocket of vegetarian Buffalo delight. Great for parties or potlucks with people who can't eat meat but still want something packed with flavor. Flaxseed or barley tempeh work best. Choose a good brand of pitas that will hold together.

Copycat Lofthouse Cookies
These copycat Lofthouse cookies have a texture that is spot-on—soft, cakey, and ultra-tender. The thick, fluffy layer of pink buttercream frosting makes them just like the originals, and even more delicious.
Apple, Cranberry, and Pear Crisp
This apple, cranberry, and pear crisp topped with walnuts is a variation of a traditional apple crisp — we love it! Comice pears taste best with this recipe.
Trees, Seeds, and Beans (Broccoli Slaw)
I came up with this broccoli slaw side dish when I was trying to clear the fridge out prior to leaving for a vacation. Grabbed what I saw, stirred up a bowl, and gave it a cheeky title based on some of the cute terms my daughter uses for food. I used lite mayo and Splenda, and I'm sure it would be great with full-fat mayo and sugar. Saved the other half-can of garbanzos for tossing with a salad. I also used half fresh, half frozen broccoli (as that's what I had on hand), and it was all tasty.
