It’s been a while since I posted a dessert recipe, so I hope you all have fun with this one. It’s great for a date night, and would be impressive to make for your significant other on Valentine’s Day (just sayin’). …
Loaded Potato Soup
I’ve always loved a good potato soup, but I rarely make it because traditional vegan potato soup recipes lack protein, making them an incomplete meal. I decided to come up with a loaded potato soup that works as a complete meal but doesn’t lose that buttery potato texture and flavor. …

Portobello Bacon Bits (Vegan)
I have a confession. Even when I was a meat eater, I was never really a fan of bacon. I liked the taste, but I guess the thought of consuming fried pig fat ruined the whole experience for me.
But despite my seemingly un-American opinion of bacon, whenever I’m in the same building as cooked bacon and can smell that smoky, salty aroma, I want some.…

Easy Homemade “Nutella”
During my dietetic internship I gave a general nutrition presentation to three different high school classes. When discussing how to eat a nutritious breakfast, at least one student in every class raised his hand and announced that he eats Nutella for breakfast, and followed with, “That’s good for you, right?” …

Veggie Pot Pie
Ah, the classic favorite one-dish meal: the pot pie. It doesn’t get much more comforting than a forkful of hot vegetables in herb gravy with a flaky crust.
If you’re like me and you grew up eating chicken pot pie, I promise this veggie pot pie tastes so good you won’t even miss the chicken (there’s plenty of protein from the beans and the chickpea herb crust). And let’s be honest, the best part about pot pie is the crust anyway, amirite?…

Chickpea Herb Pie Crust (Vegan & GF)
Earlier this week I received a request for a vegan, gluten-free crust for veggie pot pie. I’ve been meaning to come up with this recipe for a long time, because my veggie pot pie is a dinner that my picky husband will eat — especially if I’m lazy and top it with pre-made puff pastry (white flour and butter). But then again, he also told me he’d “eat garbage if it were wrapped in puff pastry.” *Sigh* …

Post-Workout Recovery Bites
If you’re someone who works out often, you may be looking for a good post-workout snack that you can easily take to the gym. You need something that replenishes your muscle glycogen stores and contains protein to help you rebuild the muscles you just tore down during your workout. …

Squash & Chickpea Pancakes (Vegan & GF)
It’s an undisputed fact that vegetables in pancake form are more fun to eat than non-pancake veggies. Also, savory pancakes are great because you can top them with just about anything — hummus, salsa, stewed tomatoes, fajita veggies, sliced tomatoes, etc. — and BOOM, you have a delicious meal! …

Easy “Cheesy” Broccoli Soup (Vegan)
As I’ve mentioned in previous posts, my favorite meal to make and eat on the weekends is an easy soup. Well, it doesn’t get much easier than this creamy, nutritious broccoli soup! …

Avocado Ranch Dip
In case you haven’t noticed, ranch dressing is extremely popular in America. I’ve seen it on salads, as a veggie dip, on pizza, and even poured on spaghetti. For a dietitian (or just anyone who is health conscious), this is not a pretty sight. …

Mac and Trees (Vegan)
If you switch to a plant-based diet, you will find that you love eating this way, yet there are a few foods you miss. For me, it’s my childhood favorite, macaroni and cheese. …

Portobello Bears
It’s quite common for young kids to be picky eaters, so it is important for us parents to find ways to get them to learn to appreciate vegetables. Many kids will eat anything if it is presented to them in a fun shape (unfortunately, this doesn’t work with picky husbands!), so I decided to use a bear cookie cutter to make portobello bears with bell pepper clothes and hummus “glue.” …
