Vegan West Virginia Hot Dogs

I love veganizing regional foods, like these Vegan West Virginia Hot Dogs. We recently moved to West Virginia from Florida.

Holiday Green Bean Casserole

I don’t known about you, but at my house we only make green bean casserole for Thanksgiving or Christmas. So, to us, it’s a special holiday dish.

Southern Butter Bean Succotash

Butter beans and lima beans are the same bean! I couldn’t find canned lima beans, only because they were labeled as butter beans. In the southern U.S. and in the U.K., people often refer to them as butter beans. There is no butter in the beans, it’s just a name. The word “succotash” originates from […]
