We try to have a reasonable amount of variety in our diet, so sometimes dishes that are favorites get forgotten for a little while as we are trying new things. But then we always go back. Like these fajitas. They’re so quick and so delicious, my two main requirements for a successful meal. Tempeh is…
Rice Bowl with Kale and Radish Slaw
Something about spring makes me want to eat healthier, whether it’s because I have to wear a bathing suit soon or because I’m naturally outside exercising more and building good health juju. This kale and radish slaw is a delicious and easy dish to whip up and pair with lots of different meals. Here it’s…
Sloppy Joes with Cole Slaw
Everyone loved Sloppy Joe day at school. I fondly remember the frenzy of the Sloppy Joe as a kid, how they dripped down your hands and made a huge mess – what could be more fun than that? Hubs has never had an actual Sloppy Joe (it’s an American thing, fun fact: originally from Sioux…
Hashbrowns with Quickie Chili
Hashbrowns are undeniably delicious, and the frozen ones are actually pretty high quality. We always have a bag on hand for whenever we are craving hashbrowns for breakfast, or for dinner! Here we topped our easy frozen hashbrowns with some quick, homemade chili, some dairy free cheese, and some cilantro. It turned our hashbrown side…

Chana Masala
I’m on a bit of a homemade Indian food kick lately, and since I still have the spices handy from my Chicken Tikka Masala recipe (hubby’s fav), I decided to try MY fav, Chana Masala. This is a slightly spicy, tomato-based chickpea dish that’s wonderful served over rice or couscous. It’s fragrant, warm, simple, and…
Baked Mac and Cheese with Crispy Brussels Sprouts
Is there anything more indulgent than Baked Macaroni and Cheese? Regular Mac N Cheese is already amazing, but then when you add a topping and bake it to crispy perfection, it just brings it to a whole new level. I love the various textures, from creamy inside to crunchy around the edges, it’s an adventure…
Chik’n Tikka Masala
I used to love tikka masala sauce in my vegetarian days. Hubs would have chicken tikka and I would have veggies simmered in this delicious spicy and creamy sauce. I really miss being able to just open a jar from the cabinet and blast everything in the skillet with flavor. I’ve been putting off making…
Orange Chocolate Scones
I spent a year living in England, where I met my English hubs, so needless to say — he and I both have a fond appreciation for the scone! We also really love the flavor combination of orange and chocolate, which I found to be much more popular in Europe than in America. I really…
Sweet and Sour Vegetable Stirfry
I asked hubs what he wanted for dinner this week, and after a moment of deep thought, he said “stirfry!” And so, as always, I delivered! 😉 I made it a sweet and sour stirfry to kick things up a notch, and because I know sweet and sour is one of hubs favorite flavors (as…
