I first came across a version of this recipe in my grandma’s box of recipe cards. It was just a general outline, without measurements or even oven temperature recorded. I adapted it and have come to love these baked bay scallops for many reasons.
First, this dish is very easy to make, just toss everything together in a baking pan, bake and serve with bread or rolls. No side dish prep or additional bowls to dirty. 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 pack vegetables into my work day lunches every day. Having a side serving of veggies at lunch makes it easy to know that I am getting all the vegetables that I want to have in my diet, regardless of what else gets packed. I have been making these roasted rainbow vegetables all winter long, and they are too pretty not to share!
Honestly, I didn’t even think about sharing this as a recipe at first. It was my husband that said, you should make this into a blog post. Why didn’t I think of that? Continue reading

Before I developed this recipe, I had never tried to make homemade broccoli cheddar soup. Broccoli is (one of) my favorite vegetables, so it was about time! I made some tweeks to my recipe, and thus named it white cheddar broccoli cauliflower soup.
For me, making a dish healthy is not about subtracting “bad” ingredients, it’s about adding more “good” ingredients. Therefore, I tried to load my recipe with lots of vegetables to balance with the the fat from the dairy. Continue reading

Tandoori grilled tofu and vegetables is a recipe that I wanted to try for a long time before I finally did. I love anything grilled and the spice mix used in the sauce is gold, literally.
What is tandoori? It is a dish that originated in India that uses a yogurt based sauce and a tandoor oven, which is heated with wood or charcoal. I grilled mine to acheive the smokey flavor of a traditional tandoor dish. Continue reading

I first tried this spicy honey cashew tofu with rainbow vegetables for dinner because I found a forgoten bag of cashews in the back of the fridge. My husband actually used the word bliss to describe this meal! Winner, winner, tofu dinner.
The sauce is the key component to nailing this stir fry, and honey is the secret ingredient! I’m usually a person that would cut back on the sugar for a savory meal, but you don’t want to skimp on the honey! It makes the flavors so much more complex. Continue reading

One of my favorite simple meals is a grain bowl. You can toss in just about any veggie, and with a little sauce, you have a meal. This lemon broccoli barley bowl with cilantro pesto is an excellent example.
I started with a base of quick cooking barley. It cooks in only 10 minutes, which makes dinner speedy. You could also meal prep regular pearled barley, and it would be ready in even less time! Continue reading
