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…

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…
Spicy Marinara with White Beans
This semi-homemade spicy marinara will become your go-to pasta sauce, I promise you. A little kick of thai red curry paste heightens all of the flavors of the tomato sauce, and will literally “spice up” pasta night! And it’s so simple to make. Even if you don’t usually like spicy food, I encourage you to…
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…
Peanut Butter Fudge
I have a huge sweet tooth, but most of the time I find fudge a bit too sweet even for my tastes. I don’t often crave it, and haven’t missed it that much since going vegan. But….this fudge adapted from Minimalist Baker has changed my mind! It’s only sweetened with a touch of maple syrup…
Roasted Cauliflower Salad
I really wish this one looked as good on camera as it tasted in person! This roasted cauliflower salad is dressed with a maple mustard sauce that is the perfect pairing for all of its salty and sweet flavors. The cauliflower is really just the base to carry the flavors of the salty capers, the…
Pasta and Eggplant
The easiest dinner in the world, in my humble opinion, is pasta. There’s a reason it’s one of the first things we learn to make as young adults and college students. In our home, we mix in vegetables with our pasta, basically using whatever we have on hand to add variety to a weekly staple….

Every clean-eating, detoxing, gluten-free dieting, and calorie-cutting eater out there should add this recipe to their repertoire! It’s simple, delicious, low-carb, high-protein, and full of fresh veggies. Dressed with the classic combination of balsamic vinegar, olive oil, and lemon juice, the…
Kale and White Beans
I don’t think I utilize frozen vegetables enough. Too often, I forget about their ease and versatility. I know that eating fresh produce means getting the most nutrients, but frozen ain’t a bad alternative. And, frozen vegetables are likely to be cheaper and obviously won’t go bad for a very long time unlike fresh produce….
Herb Cauliflower Rice
Moms are the best. For so many reasons. And especially when they give you recipe tips that you can use on your blog. 😉 Mom pointed me towards this perfect bag of frozen cauliflower rice that is available in the grocery store, already flavored beautifully, quick to whip up in a skillet or microwave, and…
