smoked tofu kale salad

I recently was out to dinner at a vegan restaurant in Philadelphia called Vedge (go if you’re in Philly). The inspiration for this salad comes from that meal and their ridiculously good Salt Roasted Gold Beets dish with Avocado, Smoked Tofu, Rye, Capers, and Creamy Cucumber. I tried to recreate similar flavors from that dish and came […]

  On days when I need a portable lunch option and I’m not in the mood for a smoothie (check out a smoothie roundup here), I usually pack some raw wraps. This PB&J wrap has been a favorite recently. It’s salty, sweet, and tastes delicious! You can pair them with some fruit to round out a full lunch. […]

It’s only a few days until Thanksgiving, but today I want to talk Mexican food. More specifically, I want to talk enchiladas. I set out to recreate this childhood favorite with a gluten-free, vegan spin and a hint of the fall season. Enter these Gluten-Free Vegan Pumpkin Enchiladas. They are spicy, delicious and packed with pumpkin flavor. They are also […]

What is it about fall that screams comfort food? Longer nights, frequent family holiday gatherings, or colder temperatures? (Probably a mix of all three.) Shepard’s Pie is quintessential comfort food, usually filled with ground beef or lamb, a heavy gravy sauce, and topped with butter-filled potatoes. I came up with a gluten-free, vegan recipe makeover for this classic […]

This weekend marks the unofficial start of the summer here in the US! If you’re celebrating, you may be headed to the beach. And if that’s the case, you might be around a lot of seafood this weekend. (Weird how my mind always goes straight to food.) If you’re vegan, this can be a little sad since you […]

quinoa 4 ways

Whether you’re packing lunch for work, school, or a long day of shopping, quinoa is one of your best bets. Sometimes thought of as a grain, quinoa is actually a complete-protein seed. It contains all nine essential amino acids (which our bodies can’t make and must acquire from food). It’s also very versatile; you can make dishes […]

 Summer is a great time of year- beautiful weather, brightly colored clothing, and tasty, affordable produce.  One of my favorite veggies in late summer are fresh tomatoes, highlighted in today’s easy tomato soup recipe. You can make this vegan soup with fresh tomatoes or, if none are available, you can use canned. The Vegan Parmesan Cheese is something […]

 If you haven’t jumped on the beet bandwagon yet, my advice to you is to get on it!!! They are delicious on their own, but paired with crispy kale, buttery avocado, and Creamy Tahini Dressing they are perfection!!

 Are you in love with kale yet? With its’ slightly bitter taste, our relationship took a little bit of time to develop. Now, kale is my favorite leafy green. It’s packed with iron, antioxidants, and numerous other healthly compounds that you can feel good about putting into your body. If you buy leafy whole kale, it’s a little […]

Spicy Peanut Salad

Are you a hot sauce lover? I used to be intimated by the stuff, but I’ve found that the more hot sauce I use, the less spicy it seems to be. This may be why I go through a bottle of Frank’s Red Hot every two weeks. Sriracha, Frank’s spicier, saucier cousin, is also a favorite (and apparently […]

 They may be difficult to crack, but coconuts are worth the trouble for their numerous health benefits. While coconut meat is high in saturated fat, the fat is composed of medium-chain fatty acids, which are more quickly broken down than long-chain fatty acids, and are actually thought to help lower cholesterol. The meat is also […]

One thing that can add unnecessary stress to our daily routine is figuring out what to eat when we’re strapped for time. I pretty much always end up eating a random, non-satisfying dinner of tortilla chips, salsa, hummus, and whatever else I can find if I don’t have a plan for dinner. Not only is this […]

 I’ve been a chana masala lover for a few years. While probably not the same as the traditional dish, Wegman’s (a local grocery store) has some seriously good chana masala. Their chana masala, piled over a little bit of brown rice and a ton of fresh spinach is pure bliss. My Wegman’s chana habit changed […]

As we get closer to summer, I’ve been wanting to do a good cleanse to hit the refresh button, reset my metabolism, and help me enter the warmer weather feeling lighter and more energetic. In the past few months, I’ve felt like I’ve had a ton of sweets (I’m looking at you Healthy Vegan Chocolate Cream Eggs). And although the sources of […]
