Quick and healthy breakfasts can be a challenge for me with the morning rush. My day no longer feels right if I don’t start it off with Chocolate Peanut Butter Overnight Oats because they require no cooking, can be prepared in under two minutes, and are ready to grab and go in the morning. I […]

Poached Avocado and Tempeh Bacon Hash with Sage Hollandaise Sauce
I often had reoccurring dreams of a breakfast I once had during a trip to Philly at the Vegan Commissary that I just never took the time to try to recreate at home involving hollandaise sauce – vegan, of course. It was my first experience with the sauce because traditionally it was served over runny […]

Bulgur + Beet Burger
If there is one dinner I can count on making my family do a happy jig, it’s beet burgers. So this is just a quick little write up of the Bulgur + Beet Burger I posted a couple posts back because everyone should experience a meal that makes them do a happy dance! It’s a […]
Whole Grain Beetroot + Cardamom Pancakes
This was my second year having anything worth calling a garden, but still being the novice and poor planner that I am, we got off to a late start. Add in an unexpected “harvesting” of my first seedlings by some curious paws, I almost threw in the towel. Instead I casually tossed in a few beet seeds […]
Food Inspo: Roasted Seaweed Snacks
My son is a seaweed addict. I don’t get it, I don’t care much for the fishy taste, I never was a consumer of sea animals but we have to keep an eye on our seaweed stash to make sure he isn’t overdoing it. We often buy the snack packs from the grocery store for […]
Vegan Peppermint Patties
When it comes to peppermint patties, I decided there are two kinds of people in this world – those who prefer an ooey, gooey center and then there’s the rest of us. I’ve just never been crazy about an oozy center in chocolates, like those weird chocolate covered cherries surrounded by that sugary goo, or […]
Garam Masala Crusted Tofu with Curry
The flavors of India have to be some of my favorites – so warm and fragrant. I love a blend of these Ayurvedic seasonings on everything from roasted cauliflower to Indian street tacos. I really enjoyed it just as much on this encrusted tofu which we served with quinoa and a vegetable curry. Although basmati […]
Granola Bars with Chocolate Drizzle – Vegan and Refined Sugar-Free
It’s that time of year when school is about to be back in session and I’ve portable snacks on the brain. Finding balanced snacks for kids is one of my biggest challenges. Most of the “healthy” snacks still contain refined sugar, even the homemade ones, and we get so much sugar outside of the house, I […]
