These baked veggie taquitos are an homage to my older brother Neal, and the dinners he ate as a kid. He would eat a plate of taquitos for dinner, (likely chicken, but I had no clue, being an extremely picky eater) and I have had a strange obsession with them ever since. I made and […]
As a lifelong vegetarian, I know the struggle with veggie burgers inside and out. Frozen store-bought patties are either cardboard, fried, or taste great but cause indigestion hours later. I have been making variations of these crunchy quinoa polenta veggie burgers for years now, and they are great for many reasons.
Making something out of nothing is one of my favorite things to do in the kitchen. And that is exactly what these southwestern stuffed sweet potatoes are. I had a sparse fridge and a growling stomach, so out of necessity, started throwing things together. My mom calls this dish “a meal in a peel,” which […]

My one regret with this recipe, is that I can’t claim is as my own! I found this vegan chocolate pudding on the food blog, http://www.feastingonfruit.com. It is so good.

A typical dinner for me usually consists of some sort of grain, a bunch of veggies, and a protein, all of which are in this recipe for tangy tofu buddha bowls. I’ve been eating like this for a while now, and I sleep well, wake up feeling refreshed, without bloating. I spend a LOT of […]
