Homemade Chai Spice (Easy 5-Minute DIY Mix)
And just like that, my friends, it’s finally October! I would like to know where the time has gone because, now, I’m planning Autumn and holiday recipes. Partially, I must admit, it’s also my fault for going on hiatus for months. However, I think it’s the best time to come back because of…
VEGAN CINNAMON ROLLS
I had this urge to make cinnamon rolls after, recently, reading a book titled Maybe in another life written by Taylor Jenkins Reid. In the book, the protagonist is obsessed with cinnamon rolls – that in every 2 chapters or so, she would devour or daydream about it. Can’t blame her! Reading the…

Vegan Burger Steak (Filipino-Style Meat Free Salisbury Steak)
If there’s a Filipino comfort food dish I have been contemplating for the longest time, it would be burger steak.

VEGAN BUTTER COOKIES
Repeat after me: light & airy cookies. Light and airy, melt in your mouth, vegan butter cookies. Let that sink in and collect yourself.

Vegan Corn Chowder (Coconut Corn Soup)
I just want to be clear, I’m an island girl. Living on Guam, I experience summer all year long.
