Italian Lentil and Quinoa Stuffed Peppers

Posted on April 13, 2018 | 24 comments

I have been going crazy over stuffed peppers recently. The funny thing is, I didn’t use to like them. In the past, I used bell pepper sparingly in meals so the flavor wasn’t strong. I don’t know what caused the change in my taste buds, but I’m loving these Italian Lentil and Quinoa Stuffed Peppers!

I called this recipe Italian because I used marinara sauce, garlic, and basil in the filling. During my stuffed peppers craze, I have also been using salsa and authentic Mexican cheese for a southwestern variety, recipe to come! Continue reading →

Vegetarian Chili Taco Salad with Jalapenos

Posted on April 10, 2018 | 4 comments

This recipe is one of my all-time favorites that is in regular rotation at my house! I serve this vegetarian chili taco salad with pickled jalapenos, and my homemade three bean chili.

If you are a taco salad purist, you will say that any salad with chili on it does not qualify as taco salad. I can’t disagree, but this salad is so fast, easy, and delicious! Maybe it shouldn’t be call taco salad, it should be called get in my belly salad! Continue reading →

Vegan Biscuits and Gravy with Tempeh Sausage

Posted on April 3, 2018 | 2 comments

In southern Illinois, we have a vegetarian cafe that makes a mean biscuits and gravy. My husband adores their dish, so naturally, I had to replicate it. Luckily, he like my vegan biscuits and gravy better!

For my biscuits and gravy, I make a homemade tempeh sausage. This is really the star of the dish, and where all the flavor comes from. If you’re not vegan, or don’t care for meat substitutes, you still need to check out those biscuits! Continue reading →

Garlic Black Olive Tapenade with Parsley

Posted on March 30, 2018 | 14 comments

Tapenade (pronounced top-ah-nod) is a french dip or spread made from olives and other flavorful pairings such as capers and anchovies. I don’t stock anchovies as a pantry staple, therefore my garlic black olive tapenade is a vegan version of the classic!

I love garlic, and it pairs perfectly with the olives and capers in the tapenade. Did you know that garlic ranks number two as a highly beneficial superfood (right behind turmeric)? It has been linked to reducing/preventing heart disease, stroke, cancer, and infections (source). Continue reading →

Vegan Black Bean Beet Veggie Burgers

Posted on March 27, 2018 | 6 comments

Beet burgers have been on my to-make list for a long time. I’m not a huge fan of beets, but these vegan black bean beet veggie burgers didn’t taste a thing like beets. In fact, I think these will become my new go-to burger recipe!

One thing that I love about veggie burgers is how versatile they are. You can throw in just about any veggie with some good seasonings. I had some leftover corn that I threw into these burgers, and I loved the pop of color that it added to the patty! Continue reading →

Moroccan Chickpea Carrot Burger

Posted on March 2, 2018 | 29 comments

The bold spices of this Moroccan chickpea carrot burger are balanced by sweet carrots. Carrots are one of the veggies I always keep on hand. In the last few weeks, all I have been able to find are whimpy, skinny, pencil sized carrots!

These small carrots are so frustrating for peeling and chopping. You have to deal with a million carrots instead of a few large ones. So instead, I found ways to use my carrots by shredding them. Continue reading →
