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….
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….
Whether you’re planning a brunch party or just looking for a way to spice up your breakfast, I’ve got you covered with this simple recipe.
We all know that bruschetta is good all on its own. After all, there are very few things in life better than good bread paired with ample amounts of garlic and olive oil. Throw in some toppings like cheese or tomatoes and it gets even better….
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….
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….
My world was changed earlier this week with the arrival of a little cardboard Amazon box outside my door. Inside was a spiralizer, aka the gadget that I’m pretty sure will change how I eat pasta for ever.
I had been meaning to try spiralizing for months. I’m always on the hunt for ways to sneak more veggies into my day and the spiralizer seemed like the perfect solution.
More pasta, more veggies…it’s a win-win, right?

So I recently started a new job that’s basically like my dream job. I ended up leaving another job that I actually really liked and enjoyed because this one offered me a chance to do something I really love: write about nutrition.
In addition to giving me the opportunity to follow one of my passions, it also allows me to work from home. That’s right–no more waking up before the sun has even risen, taking an hour-long train ride into the Bronx, cramming onto a packed train during rush hour and then coming home totally exhausted just from the commute alone….
I feel like the only real preface this recipe for cauliflower tacos really needs is the glowing review I got from my boyfriend, one of the biggest meat lovers I know, who completely polished off his plate and said, “That was amazing. I didn’t even miss the meat at all.”
He generally likes everything I make (or that’s what he tells me at least), but this was a real compliment coming from him….
Breakfast is my favorite meal of the day…or it at least definitely makes it into the top 3 😉
That being said, it can be easy to get into a rut when it comes to breakfast. It’s all too easy to stick to a few breakfast classics on rotation: oatmeal, yogurt, omelettes, repeat….
So just when I thought things would finally start to calm down and I would be able to breathe again, things got even more crazy.
I have a jam-packed schedule for the next four weeks, with a vacation, a surgery, a visit from my parents, and plenty of work-related stressors all looming over me….
