Easy Homemade Hummus

Easy Homemade Hummus

One of my favorite healthy snacks?  Hummus and veggies.  I love serving it at parties, because it’s delicious, easy and healthy.  I love packing it on vacation (where we will have a fridge).  I even just found out that my favorite vacation spot (Disney!!!) offers veggies and hummus as an option these days.  I am

Things I learned this weekend: 1. My cousin is a super talented musician. To be honest, I already knew this, but it has been a while since he played a show and his show this weekend was amazing. I danced around like crazy and sang at the top of my lungs (some of this I

Vegan Vietnamese Spring Rolls

Vegan Vietnamese Spring Rolls

  For me, there is nothing like a bunch of crunchy fresh veggies for lunch at this time of the year.  I am starting to wear 2 layers instead of 4 (true story, I really do wear a million layers in the winter), and my emails from the clothing stores are telling me that dress

Vegan Buffalo Tempeh

Vegan Buffalo Tempeh

This recipe.  So good.  I don’t remember when I first made buffalo tempeh, but it’s a complete staple for us.  Tempeh has a really long shelf life in the refrigerator, so I keep packages around for when I need dinner in 5 seconds.  This is what I make 99% of the time with that tempeh.
