Shrimp and grits is one of the classic southern dishes that can be made so many different ways that no two recipes are alike. I always try to add some vegetables for good measure, and these cherry tomato shrimp and grits are by far my favorite!
I have also tried shrimp and grits with mushrooms and with red bell pepper. Both were delicious in their own right, but the sweet cherry tomatoes really compliment the sweetness of the shrimp and the sweetness of the corn. Continue reading

Mexican food is hands down my favorite type of food, so it should not be a surprise that we eat tacos all the time. Luckily, there are so many delicious taco fillings (like these grilled tofu and summer vegetable tacos) that tacos never get old.
Summer is the perfect time to be outside enjoying time around the grill. I hear a lot of vegetarians and vegans struggle to come up with ideas for meals to put on the grill. Don’t worry I am hear to help! Continue reading

That time of the year where life starts to get crazy busy is here again. It’s back to school time, and for me that means meal prep! One of my favorite ways to meal prep is to grill some extra veggies to use in other meals, like this grilled portabella and lentil spaghetti recipe.
Do you practice meal prep? I highly recommend it as it is a time saver in the long run. I like to meal prep all sorts of things, like grilling vegetables for this recipe, or cooking a big batch of grains or making work lunches for the week. Continue reading

Friends, it has been a very busy summer for me, and I hope you all have a summer full of great recipes so far. This recipe, Greek chickpea salad, is one that I have been eating a lot this summer.
This salad is very easy to make. It requires a little bit of time to chop all the vegetables, but it is totally worth it. The flavor of all the vegetables go together perfectly, and the dressing is the icing on the cake! Continue reading

Friends, it has been a busy summer, but I have not forgotten about you and your recipe needs! This roasted cauliflower and spinach pasta recipe is a simple one that I whipped up out of leftover ingredients in the fridge but I loved it so much that I though you all needed to have it here.
I wrote this recipe as a single serving because that is how I made it. It could easily be doubled or quadrupled to serve your whole family or to take to a cookout. Continue reading

This coconut turmeric noodle bowl with tofu and veggies was inspired by golden milk, a creamy drink or tea made with a base of plant-based milk and turmeric. I used the golden milk in place of broth to make a creamy noodle bowl that can be eaten hot or cold.
This isn’t a soup recipe because the ingredients are prepared individually, not together in one pot. It resembles a buddah bowl more than it does soup. Continue reading

Dinner at my house tonight is going to be grilled shrimp with creamy cocktail sauce! The creamy cocktail sauce is a condiment from the UK also known as Marie Rose sauce.
I discovered this sauce/dip once when I was serving cold cocktail shrimp and totally overlooked the idea something to dip them in. I went searching the internet for a simple dip that I could whip up from pantry ingredients and I have been making this sauce ever since! Continue reading

Friends, can you beleive that this is the first time I have tried roasting asparagus?!? Me either. Grilling it is usually my go-to method. One night when it was raining, I decided against grilling so I tried this roasted asparagus with creamy dill sauce.
If you are an asparagus fan like me, you will come back to this recipe time and time again. I have made it three times already this season and cannot get enough! Continue reading

A few months ago, I posted this recipe for butternut squash chickpea curry. One week when I was cleaning out the fridge, I used the recipe but made alterations based on what I had. My family loved this sweet potato coconut curry even more than we loved the butternut squash version, so I just had to share it with you all!
So, what alterations did I make? Two major swaps and one omission is all that you will find. I swaped sweet potato for the butternut, and tofu for the chickpeas. Continue reading
