Simple Mediterranean Kale Salad with Golden Balsamic Vinaigrette

Posted on April 14, 2017 | 4 comments

If you have followed the blog for very long, you might know by now that I eat soups during the winter, and salads during the summer. I don’t post as many of my salad recipes because I tend to make them quickly when I don’t have time for anything else, including a photo session. This spring and summer, I am hoping to change that, bringing you lots more fresh salads! Today I am sharing my simple Mediterranean kale salad. Continue reading →

Mushroom Swiss Sandwich Melts with Arugula

Posted on April 11, 2017 | 10 comments

Is any body else on a total mushroom kick right now? I am just realizing that my last two recipe posts also had mushrooms in them, Two Potato Hash with Mushrooms, and Mushroom Lentil Bolognase. Mushrooms are the kind of food that you either love or hate, and I love them. In my opinion, they are best when sauted, like in today’s Mushroom Swiss Sandwich Melts with Arugula recipe!

Fried Chickpea Gyro Bowls with Tzatziki Sauce

Posted on March 27, 2017 | 6 comments

The first time I had heard about fried chickpeas, I was reading over at Naturally Ella (an amazing vegetarian blog). I knew immediately that I would have to try the technique. A quick pan fry has the ability to add texture and depth of flavor that you wouldn’t normally find in a chickpea. These fried chickpea gyro bowls with tzatziki sauce are exploding with flavor, and come together quickly for an easy weeknight meal! Continue reading →

Turmeric Fried Rice with Edamame

Posted on March 23, 2017 | 8 comments

Turmeric is all the craze right now because of its huge number of health benefits. Have you heard about all the things turmeric can do for you? It is most well known for reducing inflammation, but also reduces risks of Alzheimer’s disease, and has been equally as effective at preventing and treating cancers as pharmaceutical drugs (Duke 2007). In the past, I have only used turmeric in my curry dishes. Now, I am trying to put it into more and more dishes to enjoy it’s health benefits. Try it in my turmeric fried rice with edamame recipe!

Lentil Cauliflower Vegan Sloppy Joes

Posted on March 20, 2017 | 18 comments

I have been eating a mostly vegetarian diet for a little over five years. One of the things I find myself easily doing is eating a lot of carbohydrates. I get plenty of protein too, but when you are searching for substitutes in a dish like sloppy joes, carb-heavy fillers can become the easy choice. I finally upgraded my lentil and bulgar sloppy joes recipe, focusing on getting a serving of veggies instead of carbs. Lentil cauliflower vegan sloppy joes are just as tasty, and help me to focus on eating more vegetables! Continue reading →

Buffalo Blue Cheese Vegetarian Taquitos

Posted on March 17, 2017 | 6 comments

These buffalo blue cheese vegetarian taquitos were created completely on a whim. Oftentimes I buy a few extra ingredients that aren’t on my grocery list at the store, simply because they are on sale. One night when I needed a quick weeknight meal, I riffled through the fridge and found some 6-inch tortillas, so I whipped up these taquitos . I had seen a vegan buffalo taquitos pin on pinterest and thought it looked like a fantastic idea, but I hadn’t even look at the recipe. As it turned out, my version is loaded with tangy blue cheese, as well as a healthy does of vegetables! Continue reading →

Plantain Black Bean Rice Bowls with Cilantro Pesto

Posted on March 6, 2017 | 10 comments

Follow my blog with Bloglovin A few years ago I took a trip to Puerto Rico and had plantains for the first time. I had always assumed that they were just like bananas, but the truth is that they are pretty different. A plantain is more well suited for cooking because it has a firm texture. Banana’s are usually reserved for baked goods because they are soft while plantains will hold up to the cooking process. My favorite part about plantains is that they add a hint of sweetness to dishes like my plantain black bean rice bowls with cilantro pesto. Continue reading →
