Spiced Cauliflower Salad with Peanut Sauce
I’m not one to follow trends, per se, but the upside to a particular food being ‘on trend’ means there’s a flood of new recipes to make you rethink your stance on, say…cauliflower.

Simple Vegan Spaghetti Night
Despite my newly developed love of healthy and (mostly) clean eating, I have not gone the low carb route. I repeat, I have NOT gone the low carb route. Nope, I love my pasta, my noodles and even my bread too much. So cutting them out was never an option, but I try not to…

Tofu Steaks with Chimichurri
When it comes to meal planning and grocery shopping, I am a champ. I mean, not to toot my own horn but I’m pretty great at it because I take the time to be. I subscribe to different recipe blogs both vegan and non-vegan because let’s face it, inspiration can come from anywhere. Sometimes it…

Mushroom Gyro Bowl & Vegan Yogurt Sauce
One of my favorite things to eat as a teenager was a gyro. There was this great little shop within walking distance of our house that sold fried catfish, barbecue chicken and gyros…mostly. Or maybe that’s all I remember because that’s mostly what I ordered. Every. Single. Time. Recently I was watching a cooking show…
