I never like to waste anything. I feel really proud of myself when I can use every part of a fruit or veggie, and love when I use everything I buy. Like how I was recently eating a mandarin orange, and felt bad just throwing the peel away so I put it in a mug

Grilled Vegan Hawaiian Salad
If I could have a free trip to anywhere in the world, right now I would totally pick Hawaii. I have been obsessed with going there for as long as I can remember, and who could blame me? Tropical climates, pineapples everywhere, beautiful ocean, ukuleles!! Sometimes when I am feeling particularly stressed out I put

Quinoa Cakes – Greek Style
It seems like it has been raining a lot lately. And while I know how fun sunny days can be, there are also some serious perks of rainy days. The plants love it and have been growing like crazy. The local farm mentioned that produce is looking awesome!! I am totally excited about that, because

Vegan Southwest Chopped Salad
It’s a weird thing, but I really love chopped salads. I’m not sure why I think they are so much better then a non chopped salad, but I do. After my vegan ranch dressing experiment worked out, I made this salad as a delivery method for ranch dressing to get into my mouth. Southwestern flavors

Vegan Ranch Dressing
I think Ranch Dressing can make almost anything tasty. In high school I had friends who ate ranch dressing on their pizza. It always looked delicious, but pretty obsene too. With the warmer weather kicking in (which has been so amazing, I want it to be summer forever) I have been craving lighter food, and

Vegan Mocha Frappachino
Today is National Donut Day. I was late to discovering this fun fact, or I would have baked up some lovely donuts. (Most likely chocolate ones, as I have been meaning to play with a chocolate donut recipe for a while) When I was in high school I worked at a bakery on a farm.

Vegetarian Cheesesteak Stuffed Peppers
Pinterest is such a fun place to procrastinate get inspiration. A while back I saw someone make cheesesteak stuffed peppers on there, and I think whoever came up with that idea is a genius. I don’t remember where I first saw it, I have seen a few incarnations of it since then, but seriously whoever

Asparagus Tacos (Vegan)
Tacos! Obsession! I have wanted to make everything into a taco lately. It’s crazy. So I think it was only a matter of time before I married some of my current obsessions together: tacos, asparagus, and toast with mashed avocado. Apparently, I am not alone on this toast with mashed avocado. Here I thought I

Vegan Hot Fudge
Nothing beats the sweet delicious flavor of fresh, real strawberries. Except maybe when those strawberries are paired with some chocolate. Some chopped fresh strawberries covered in molten chocolate sauce? Might be the stuff heaven is made of. I also recently discovered that watermelon and chocolate is a seriously delicious and underrated combination. So some watermelon

Gluten Free Chocolate Waffles
Remember how yesterday I mentioned how I ate some waffles this weekend and was in my happy place? Those waffles were totally chocolate. These exact waffles in fact. This weekend felt like it was extra special. It was a holiday weekend, the (sorta, unofficial) start of summer, and I just wanted to celebrate. Which meant

Grilled Asparagus Salad with Lemon Dressing
For some reason the idea of running a fork down a cucumbers skin to make it “pretty” reminds me of the 80’s. Perhaps it is because I am a child of the 80’s, and I remember my mom doing that when we had company. But as an adult I never really thought to do it.

Beet Sliders
I bet it hasn’t escaped your notice that we are heading into a holiday weekend. The approach of a holiday (aka time off) in grown up world still feels the same to me as they did as a kid/teen. There is like a palpable energy that I remember even the teachers embraced by having a
