Chipotle is my favorite flavor to pair with sweet potatoes (I can’t get enough of the sweet/heat combo!). See here, here and here for evidence. Today I have a chipotle baked sweet potato fries recipe to add to the list of evidence.
I riffed this recipe from Love and Lemons where they suggested using cornstarch to crisp up the fries in the oven. It works wonders for sheet pan tofu, so I figured it would work here as well. Continue reading
I have many curry recipes that I love (I’m talking about you sweet potato curry) but this tofu and vegetable Thai red curry has been on repeat at my house since the end of summer for good reason.
First of all, you only need a few basics to make a rich and vibrant curry loaded with amazing flavor. Start with a base of aromatics, not just onion, but plenty of fresh garlic and ginger – this amps the flavors big time. Then comes the magic I-can’t-believe-it’s-so-easy ingredient, Thai red curry paste. Continue reading

I have been in love with sheet pan tofu as of late. It is so easy to make with amazing results. Last fall I posted my sheet pan tofu with honey harissa sauce recipe, and now I have another version for you, sheet pan orange tofu with broccoli.
I remember eating orange chicken take-out before I stopped eating most meats, and this recipe is so much better! The authentic orange flavor of the sauce from fresh-squeezed oranges is the star of the show. Continue reading

I have been wanting to try making seed crackers for a very long time, and I finally did! These crackers are crispy and toasty, loaded with good for you seeds, and seasoned just enough to make them interesting.
There are two binder options written into this recipe: the chia seeds or the whole psyllium husks. The binder holds together all the seeds to that the produce a cracker. So what are the differences between the two? Continue reading

One day I was looking for a fast lunch to whip up out of the fridge and I ended up making this Italian chickpea salad. I have made this salad over and over again because it is not only healthy, but incredibly easy as well.
This salad is based on the classic Italian chopped salad, but made vegan and with chickpeas instead of lettuce. It relies on a lot of jarred or canned ingredients that are easy to keep on hand in the pantry for when you need that fast lunch. Continue reading

Fresh bread is the absolute best. I make bread as often as I can, something like every other weekend. I love these 60 minute 50/50 whole wheat dinner rolls because they are fast and easy to make with deliciously soft and fluffy interiors, perfect for when you have a craving for fresh bread.
Lets answer a few questions about the recipe next, including why 50/50 whole wheat? And why 60 minutes? Continue reading
These dill cauliflower fritters with lemon yogurt sauce are the perfect light meal for me. Cauliflower keeps things light and a lemon-spiked Greek yogurt sauce adds a little protein boost to keep you full.
I started making these fritters because I always seemed to have a half head of cauliflower in the fridge that needed to be used. You know, the kind that is starting to get those ugly brown spots that no one wants to eat even though it doesn’t taste different. Continue reading

This recipe for mushroom dill ravioli was born from a mistake. I put mushroom dill ravioli on my menu plan, but didn’t double check the ingredients list before I went grocery shopping.
The original recipe called for mushroom-filled ravioli, which would have been tossed in a garlic dill sauce much like this one. My mistake was to buy cheese ravioli and fresh mushrooms, and it was a delicious mistake indeed. Continue reading

This honey harissa sheet pan tofu has made it into our regular rotation of dinners for a lot of reasons. The texture of the tofu is amazing, the whole thing is super easy, and you can make simple swaps for what you have on hand.
Have you tried ripping tofu by hand? It creates lots of edges that all get crispy when baked with starch and yields some of the crispiest tofu. On top of that, it is kind-of fun and easy just getting into the tofu block with your hands. Good for stress relief, or a good option for kids to help out in the kitchen. Continue reading
