As often as I recommend doubling a recipe and putting one half in the freezer for later, I must admit that I have yet to actually follow my own advice. The freezer space in our kitchen fridge is extremely limited, so over the weekend we bought an extra freezer to keep in the garage. Now I have no excuse! …
Strawberry Chocolate Valentine Cookies (Vegan & GF)
I’ve been on a bit of a cookie kick lately, which I know isn’t great for me. But because my family is in town, I decided to make some mostly-good-for-you Valentine cookies for everyone to enjoy. And what Valentine’s dessert is better than chocolate covered strawberries? Chocolate covered strawberry cookies!…
Beet & Potato Gnocchi
Although it seems that most couples prefer to dine out for Valentine’s Day, others of us choose to dine in for various reasons. And since Valentine’s Day is all about your heart, why not cook something that is heart-healthy?…
Blueberry Breakfast Bars
With my mom and brother coming into town to stay with us for a week, I needed to come up with something to serve for breakfast the next few days. I looked at several recipes and came up with these super nutritious breakfast bars. The base is a blend of oats, bananas, almonds, Chia seeds, cinnamon, maple syrup, and a touch of coconut oil. The topping is a mix of oats and superfoods — blueberries, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, and almonds. …
Kabocha Squash Soup
Although I spend most of the winter missing summer vegetables, there is one winter squash that excites me every time I see it in the grocery store — the kabocha squash. This is perhaps the most underrated squash because it’s not in nearly as many recipes as butternut squash, yet it is so much better. …
Lentil Shepherds Pie with Gnocchi Crust
After a few posts about desserts and fancy appetizers, it was time for me to post a family-friendly weeknight dinner recipe. I’d been wanting to create a vegan shepherds pie, and when I couldn’t decide what to cook for dinner yesterday, I accepted the challenge. …
Artichoke & Caramelized Onion Flatbread
Sometimes I will do anything to avoid going to the grocery store, especially now that I have a baby. When I was single and living by myself, I used to love going to Whole Foods in Nashville and frolicking around the produce department. But now I have to wait until Abby wakes up from her nap, buckle her into her car seat, put her into the shopping cart (where she always drops her paci and chews on the cart handle), stop to answer strangers’ questions about how old she is, etc., put her and the groceries in the car, and drive home. It’s nothing short of an ordeal. So yesterday I was determined to come up with a recipe using ingredients I already had, and what I created was so delicious, I decided to share it!

Cooking Classes in Winston-Salem
If you live in the Triad area, I highly recommend signing up for a cooking class at Southern Home & Kitchen, my favorite store in the Thruway Shopping Center here in Winston-Salem. Not only do they have great merchandise, but they also have a fantastic kitchen in the back of the store where they host several cooking classes each month (see the schedule here!)….
Pear Tart with Vanilla Cashew Cream & Caramel
It’s difficult to find a dessert more attractive than a fruit tart. I’d been wanting to make one, but wasn’t very motivated until I came across some beautiful red d’Anjou pears at Whole Foods the other day.
…
Tex-Mex Salad with Cilantro Lime Vinaigrette
I can only go so long without a Mexican dish, and after stuffing my face during the Super Bowl, it was time for a huge salad. …
Samoas (Vegan & GF)
Yesterday my husband brought home a box of contraband — an assortment of Girl Scout cookies. I support the Girl Scouts, but their cookies are nothing but junk. I always thought they had decent flavors, but their cookies taste like preservatives to me. Although not as convenient, homemade cookies are always better! …
Cuban Harvest Bowl
I can’t count how many people tell me they won’t give up meat because they’re afraid they’d tire of eating only vegetables all the time. That might be true if you only eat unseasoned steamed vegetables, but there are so many ways to cook and season produce that if you continue to try new things, you will always enjoy a plant-based diet….
