I think we can all agree that 2017 hasn’t been the best. It has been a rough year for just about everyone I’ve talked to. Here’s to hoping 2018 is a million times better! I wish I had thought up this recipe before Christmas, it would have been a great side for the holidays… This…

“Cheesy” Mushroom Tofu Quiche
This “Cheesy” Mushroom Tofu Quiche turned out beautifully, I’m very disappointed that I wasn’t able to get more photos before the lighting got too gloomy to snap a few more! I will definitely be making this again very soon, so hopefully I can add a few more pictures for you all to view. This “Cheesy”…
Sweet Potato & Kale Enchiladas (V/GF)
I hope you all had a happy Thanksgiving! Sick of holiday food yet? Honestly, I’m not quite there myself yet, I’m still digging the leftover green bean casserole. Well, If you are, this Sweet Potato & Kale Enchilada recipe is perfect for any extra sweet potatoes you may have leftover from your Thanksgiving feast. These…
Creamy Mushroom Risotto (V/GF)
Mushrooms are definitely an acquired taste. Honestly, I didn’t like them very much until after I became a vegan. Once vegan, mushrooms became my main meat substitute. I tried them in so many different meals, burgers, lasagnas, soups, enchiladas, tacos, and so much more. One of my early vegan favorites was stuffing portobellos with navy…
Roasted “Turkey” Seitan Sandwiches
This recipe starts with making a juicy, and garlicky, Roasted Turkey Style Seitan from scratch. Raw seitan isn’t the most appealing thing to look at -as you can see from mine pictured below- but it is a tasty alternative to eating meat. I could have probably spent more time on rolling my dough into…
Roasted Vegetable Pasta (V/GF)
This is one of my new favorite weeknight dinners. It can be made in 30-Minutes, super easy, filling, and loaded with veggies. Oven roasting vegetables is my most favorite way to cook vegetables and I LOVE pasta, so why not combine the two? I decided to go with a sun dried tomato sauce that is…
Southwestern Breakfast Bites (V/ GF)
I admit that I’m not a huge breakfast person -I like eating it but don’t like taking my time making it on busy days-, which is why I don’t have very many breakfast recipes that are not pancakes. I often will just grab a banana or make some oatmeal real quick, something quick and easy….
Thai Basil Tofu Stir-Fry (V, GF)
My husband took me out to lunch at a local Thai restaurant last week that was super delicious, and it inspired me to make something similar to what I ate there. This recipe is what I came up with. I seriously think I could munch on the pan fried Tofu from this recipe all day,…
Plant Power Bowl with Poblano Cashew Sauce
This is a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for making ahead of time to pack up as weekday lunches. In my opinion it is just as delicious cold or room temp if you don’t have a way to warm it up when on the go, and there isn’t anything in the dish that…
Pulled Mushroom Barbacoa Tacos (V, GF)
This recipe is my vegan version of Barbacoa Tacos, made with pulled mushrooms! I worked on this recipe (in my head) for about a month before actually attempting to make it, mostly trying to figure out what kind of mushrooms I wanted to use. I decided on portobello mushrooms because they are available in most…
Vegetable Fried Rice (V, GF)
Simple, easy, and delicious recipe this week. This Vegetable Fried Rice pairs great with last week’s recipe Sesame Cauliflower. I’m usually partial to white rice since it cooks up faster, but white rice causes more of an insulin spike due to its very low fiber and fat content. Brown rice also increases insulin release, but…
Sesame Cauliflower (V, GF)
This is by no means is a “healthy” recipe considering there is frying involved. I tested several different batters for the cauliflower and cooked them in the oven which would have been a healthier choice but none of those oven fried batters turned out the way I was really wanting. I was wanting this Sesame…
