About

I am an award winning baker and the author of seven cookbooks including: The I Heart Trader Joe’s Vegetarian Cookbook, 100 Best Vegan Baking Recipes, Have Your Cake and Vegan Too and Bringing Home the Seitan. For 8 years, I blogged about food over at nomnomnomblog.com, before taking a break – but I just can’t stop.

I live in St. Paul, MN with my husband, two kids and cats. By day I work in the world of public radio podcasts, I bake as often as humanly possible and am succeeding in raising two little foodies who know their way around the kitchen, while also teaching them about their heritage through story and food.
