Just a [link filled] reminder… Certain recipes are so good they are worth repeating. Often. Like quinoa granola. And egg & kale breakfast strata (in muffin form). And mushroom miso & squash stew. And daiya pizza. And vegetarian chorizo & kale rice casserole. By the way, I totally figured out what this meal reminds me of. I am reluctant to share though, since it’s (cringe) Hamburger Helper. Don’t judge, just make it. And baked potatoes with the works. [There’s more of that vegan chorizo] And mushroom stroganoff. [I added TVP this time to increase the… Read more >

Sometimes I get bummed out when I realize over the course of the day I’ve basically eaten nothing but toast with Earth Balance, bananas with nut butter, and crackers with hummus. In large quantities. These foods are delicious and healthy, yes. But inspired? Not so much. Which is why this simple but different lunch made me so very happy. I got rainbow chard at the farmer’s market and decided I had to use it in more ways than just a salad (or sandwich ingredient). I’ve done both of those things with it already, but… Read more >

This is a pseudo recipe because I didn’t measure things and you don’t need to either. Green Enchiladas [vegan] 6 tortillas (I used 365 whole wheat tortillas) green enchilada sauce (I used one of the frontera brand packets which was 8 oz of sauce) Filling: brown rice (~1.5 cups) corn (~1/4 cup) TVP (~1/4 cup, rehydrated with the same amount of liquid, either veg broth or water)* salsa (~1/4 cup) *You could swap black/pinto/refried beans for TVP. Combine filling ingredients. Stuff each tortilla, roll it up, and place it in a greased baking pan. … Read more >

This past weekend was the first time in a couple of years that I skipped Expo West. I had a ticket and everything, but I just didn’t see the point in trying to make it work. I guess this is evidence that my priorities have shifted. I like free samples and keeping on pulse with the latest natural food trends, but I like family bonding time more. Lucky for me, my in-laws were there to scout out the scene in my absence. They reported back and then some…with tons of samples for me to review. … Read more >

Sunday Tofu Caesar Salad Totally gonna be a regular from now on. Easy peasy and deeeelish. Monday Cabbage & Green Chickpea Curry with brown rice Kyle requested this. He wanted cabbage specifically. Turns out, cabbage is cheap. The other ingredients were things we had on hand already – including frozen green chickpeas (365 brand) and carrots. I made a slurry of sauce with the same curry paste I used here (Patak’s brand) with plain greek yogurt (Chobani 2%). Then I added the veg and waited for the cabbage to wilt. Served it up over… Read more >
