Kids everywhere will eat their zucchini! In my pre-vegan, pre-health fanatic days, I loved ordering fried mozzarella sticks as an appetizer... now these baked zucchini sticks hit the spot! I've included a dipping sauce recipe (roasted red pepper sauce) but feel free to use your favorite marinara.

Whole Wheat Vegan Banana Pancakes Posted by:Lindsay S. Nixon Category: Recipe
We use VWAV's pancake recipe on p. 31 to make these babies. The trick is to use whole wheat pastry flour but do not sift it!

The colors in this quick stir-fry showcase the beauty of summer harvest while the chili garlic lime sauce brings out the taste of Asia. The sauce is also quite versatile. Omit the lime for a chili garlic sauce, add extra garlic for a Thai garlic sauce or add szechuan sauce for a spicier dish. I must also confess that I totally tricked my husband with this recipe... I slipped in kale (something he claims he hates and refuses to eat). …
