I discovered the easiest dinner ever. This stew is warm, aromatic, and super satisfying. I love the surprise of the crunchy creamy pecans and the rich chunky tomato base. It’s perfect for a late work night or when you can’t be bothered to put in much effort, but don’t want to sacrifice on nutrition or…

Vegetable Pancakes
Whenever we order from our favorite Indian restaurant, I always get Uttapam, a thick pancake-like dosa full of lentils and vegetables and topped with a delicious assortment of spicy and cooling sauces. It makes sense that I love Uttapam, since I’ve loved zucchini pancakes, and corn and other savory fritters, ever since I was a…
Dijon Mustard Tofu
Browned tofu slices draped in a creamy Dijon sauce seasoned with fresh cracked pepper. It tastes as divine as it sounds! The sharp mustard is complemented with white wine and vegan sour cream to make a deliciously creamy sauce; I had it with chicken back in my meat eating days, and now I can say…
Chili Lime Corn
Holding onto the final days of summer the best way I know how! Grilled corn (grilled on the stove top of course). This easy recipe for corn on the cob is a bit spicy from a jalapeno pepper, a bit tangy from the fresh squeezed lime juice, and a bit sweet from the corn… so…
Mushroom Wonton Ravioli
I love shortcuts. I’m a big fan of anything that makes my life easier and less complicated. While I can recognize that sometimes it might be therapeutic or an enjoyable challenge to take the long road by, say, making your own fresh vegan pasta dough, I also very much prefer finding little tricks that save…
Sweet Potato & Spinach Lentils
Sometimes I like to mix together a bunch of my favorite things and see what happens. In this case, it’s sweet potatoes, fresh spinach, and slow simmered green lentils. It turned out to be a great combination and a super easy two-pot dinner that we will definitely be making again (and again)! The key 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…
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…
Pasta with Kale and Sundried Tomatoes
Want to up your pasta game? A classic dish of pasta is always delicious, but can be made so much better by adding just a few extra ingredients. I’m guilty of having pasta for dinner whenever I can’t decide what to make or when I feel like we have “nothing” in the house. If you’re…
