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….
Asian-inspired “Sick” Soup
Whenever my husband gets a cold, he gives me his sad puppy-dog face and asks if I can make him some “sick soup.” Apparently, when he was little, his mother made him “sick soup” when he stayed home from school. He later found out that this soup was nothing more than hot water and a chicken boullion cube. …
Tea Cookies (Vegan & GF)
When I came up with my shortbread cookie recipe, I had in mind a slightly sweet, light tea cookie that is also nutritious. First I created a citrus version, which contains Meyer lemon or orange zest and is topped with a very thin slice of citrus fruit. But with such a great shortbread dough base, I couldn’t stop at just one cookie flavor. I opened my fridge and noticed some unsalted pistachios and decided to add them to the dough with coconut flakes and almond extract. The results were delicious! …
Nutritious Super Bowl Menu
It’s officially six days until the Super Bowl, and whether or not you care about watching football, chances are that you’re expected to come up with some delicious snacks to munch on during the game. And although it’s easy to order a pizza or melt some Velveeta and open a bag of Doritos, those options are hardly low calorie or nutritious.
Why not make something that’s fun to eat, but won’t make you feel terrible by halftime?…
The Perfect Shortbread Cookie Recipe (Vegan & GF)
Baking is a science. If you’ve ever tried to alter a cake recipe, you know this to be true. In order to produce the desired texture, flavor, and appearance, you must find the delicate balance between the type and amount of flour, sugar, and leavening agent….
Grilled Romaine Caesar Salad (Vegan)
I really really love garlic. If it made sense, I would put it in every recipe. It is for this reason that I crave this creamy, vegan Caesar dressing, which I pour over another of my many cravings — Romaine. …
Chickpea Sloppy Joes
I’ve been making this recipe for years, and I’ve found it to be the most kid-friendly plant-based recipe. As an added bonus, it only takes about 15 minutes to make, and the kids can help by mashing the chickpeas! …
Bananas Foster
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’). …
Falafel Dip
As the Super Bowl approaches (Feb. 1!), I start to think about what nutritious snacks I’m going to make to balance out all of the junk food that’s typically served at Super Bowl parties. …
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?” …
