Spicy Tofu & Red Quinoa Bowl
Been busy finishing up my latest book but I wanted to share another Buddha Bowl with you. The thing I love most about them, aside from all the healthy stuff, is that you get a little bit of a variety of foods. After a tough workout or just because I’m feeling really hungry, I crave them.…

Orzo Greek Salad with Vegan Feta
From the day I started this new journey to healthy, cruelty-free living, I have been trying to do a better job of adding fresh, raw vegetables to my diet. Before I turned vegan I always made sure I had plenty of vegetables to go along with my meat and dairy, but salad was something mostly…

Mushroom & Pea Penne w/Chickpea Alfredo
So we’re going to round out bean week–mostly–with this final meal that actually inspired the theme this week. I’ve been looking for ways to use more beans (and less tofu) in more creative ways.

Vegan Barbecue & Broccoli Bowl
One of the hardest things for me to get over during my first year or so as living vegan, was how I thought of meals. I was so conditioned ot think of a meal, especially dinner, being protein, vegetables and starch or grain. Period. End of story. Eat up and to go to bed. But…

Easy Tofu & Broccoli Stir Fry Recipe
When you’re feeling lazy but you still need something tasty, fast and healthy to eat, I find stir fry is always a good option. It packs your plate with vegetables, tons of flavor and most important of all….carbs. And it does all that without becoming a calorie bomb, though that part is pretty dependent on…

Quick & Easy Spicy Vegan Mushroom Orzo
One of the things I’m guilty of doing when it comes to cooking is getting stuck in a rut. Not a bad rut, but I’ll create recipes surrounding the same ingredients, like bulgur or rice, when there are tons of other grains I could be using. It’s one of the reason I am obsessed with…

The Lazy Vegan’s Totally Plant Based Buddha Bowl
Lazy moments happen to the best of us and all you can do about it is either complain about it or push through it. Personally, I prefer to do a little bit of both, mostly complain while I push through it. But that’s just me. One of my go to meals when I’m feeling lazy…
