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 →

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 →

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 →

One Pot Spanish Wheat Berries with Chickpeas and Olives

Posted on February 17, 2017 | 6 comments

Wheat berries are my favorite grain to cook with. They are inexpensive, and the texture is outstanding! I feel like they get overlooked so often because gluten free grains are popular right now. Also, fancier wheat grains are often used by recipe developers, so they get all the hype. I have tried both farro and kamut (ancient wheat grain varieties), and I don’t think they are worth the extra money when compared to standard wheat berries. This one pot Spanish wheat berries with chickpeas and olives is a take on arroz con pollo, made vegetarian of course! Continue reading →

Wild Rice and Vegetable Soup

Posted on February 5, 2017 | 6 comments

I love to make soup out of whatever I might happen to already have on hand. If you have a good broth and a few veggies, you can certainly come up with a dinner worthy meal. In this soup, I used the last of my wild rice. Wild rice is a wonderful grain; it’s chewy and adds great color. In this wild rice and vegetable soup I used what I had on hand for vegetables including onion, celery, carrot, and spinach. Continue reading →
