And just like that, it’s the last day of 2017. Can you believe it!? As much of a cliche it is to say, where has this year gone?  My most-cherished memories from the year are moving into our new home with our pupper, Henry and celebrating our engagement and wedding planning. What is your favorite memory of 2017?

I’ve put together YOUR favorite, tried-and-tasted, recipes of 2017. The number one recipe is a staple in my kitchen, and I am happy to learn it’s one in yours too!

Wishing you health, happiness, and joy for the new year from my kitchen to yours! XO, Ceara

5. Ricotta and Spinach Vegan Cannelloni

Cannelloni pasta stuffed with a cheesy and savory dairy-free Ricotta, covered in homemade marinara sauce and baked with parmesan until crispy. Say no more?

Made this for dinner last night and had a friend over that has an aversion to anything “vegan” ….. This was a winner he did not know it was vegan, after he had eaten he said how good it was, then I told him it was vegan, well he was very surprised. My husband is great, he tries anything I cook vegan and he loved it too. I thought it was delicious, I must admit I wasn’t sure about the tofu ricotta but it’s a winner. So the consensus from everyone is, I have to cook this again. Thanks for such a great recipe. – Ruth
