Honey Spent Grain Dinner Rolls

Posted on October 17, 2018 | 19 comments

Recently, I was gifted a large bag of spent grains. Spent grains are the leftover grains and malts from brewing a batch of beer. Spent grain still has a lot of flavor and can be reused as flour. I used some of my spent grain to make these honey spent grain dinner rolls!

If you like to brew beer, you may find yourself with plenty of spent grains to experiment with. Simply dehydrate the grains, and grind into flour using a food processor. Continue reading →

Vegetarian Quinoa Stuffed Poblano Peppers

Posted on August 30, 2018 | 26 comments

This week, I was inspired by the farmers market to make these vegetarian quinoa stuffed poblano peppers! I love poblano peppers, but rarely use them as stuffed peppers because they are more expensive at the grocery store than bell peppers.

I found a HUGE box of poblanos at my local farmers market for only $1!! Seriously, the farmers market is the best. My peppers came home and I and stuffed them full of pantry staples to make a delicious meal! Continue reading →

Do you guys ever have those days when you dropped the ball and don’t have a plan for lunch? Whenever I find myself in need of a quick meal, I turn to toast! This buffalo blue cheese smashed chickpea toast is my favorite!

Avocado toast has been all the craze recently. I never really got on board because, well, I didn’t consider toast to be a meal. When you top it with hearty and filling protein, like smashed chickpeas, why not? Continue reading →

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 →

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 →

This weekend, I challenged myself to build a meal based on what I already had at home. These peanut butter tofu banh mi bowls helped me to use up left over veggies, and I discovered a new combo that I love – peanut butter and tofu!

I love to do my grocery shopping, which might be weird, but what kind of women doesn’t like to shop?! Personally, I don’t like to shop for clothes or shoes, I like to shop for food. I guess I’m a foodie. Maybe. Continue reading →
