I’ll admit–I’m not a fan of winter in general; I hate the cold, I hate the snow and I hate the winter blues that always seem to roll around this time of year. On the plus side, though, when the temperatures drop, I find myself in the kitchen a lot more…usually huddled in front of the oven on those days when it’s cold and gloomy outside and the landlord still hasn’t turned on the heat for our building ;)…

Loaded Vegan Veggie Burger
Veggie burgers are awesome. Not only are they easy to make and sound pretty much 24/7, but they are also a great way to sneak a few extra servings of veggies into your day.
I confess that I usually have a pack of Morningstar spicy black bean burgers sitting in my freezer for when nothing else sounds good or I’m in a rush and need to eat something fast….
Chickpea Curry with Veggie Rice
Indian food is one of my favorite types of cuisine. I love the spices, the flavors and, of course, the fact that it’s super vegetarian-friendly.
However, Indian food can be hard to make at home. If you don’t have access to an extensive collection of spices, replicating that characteristic Indian taste can be close to impossible. In fact, I can’t tell you how many times I’ve tried whipping up my favorite Indian dishes at home only to be left disappointed by the lackluster flavor….
Vegan Zucchini Meatballs
Let’s be honest…we all have a dish that we tend to fall back on when we get busy or stressed out. This is your go-to meal when you’re not in the mood to cook, when you’re tired after a long day of work or when there’s nothing in the fridge that sounds good.
Mine has changed a few times throughout the past few years. At one point it was rice and beans, at another point oatmeal. Now pasta is my “default” meal when I’m fresh out of ideas and looking to fill my plate fast….
Kale Sweet Potato Breakfast Bake
After enjoying a few weeks back home in Kansas and then taking some time to readjust back to real life, I’m finally ready to get back to sharing yummy recipes and talking all about my favorite thing–food!
As I’ve mentioned before, working from home has given me the chance to really enjoy my breakfasts lately. I have time to wake up, leisurely sip a hot cup of cocoa or coffee and whip up something delicious to start the day on the right foot….
Tempeh Broccoli Breakfast Skillet
Hello everyone and happy April! This is one of my favorite months because the sun finally starts poking its head out every once in a while, it’s finally nice enough to do things outside again, and some of my favorite fruits and veggies start to come back in season….
Vegan Sweet Potato Nachos
It’s been a rough week here, mostly because I came down with a nasty respiratory infection over the weekend that kept me home sick from work and left me with a painful ear infection 🙁 Not fun.
On the bright side, I did get to binge watch Netflix, take lots of naps, and eat my weight in comfort food. So while I can’t really complain, I do have to admit that I’m excited that this week is already halfway over….
One Pot Vegan Potato Skillet
Lately life has been especially busy around here.
One of my New Year’s resolutions was to start going to the gym before work instead of after. While it sounds easy enough in theory, it means waking up at 4 am every morning to squeeze in a quick workout before leaving for work at 6:30….
