This Sweet Potato and Mushroom Hash recipe came about when I was in need of something to go with my breakfast-for-dinner Savory Whole Wheat Waffles Topped with Fried Eggs. I felt like I needed to add some more veg to the meal. And when the chill in the air makes its way into my home,…

Thai Quinoa Cabbage Rolls (Vegetarian)
I somehow ended up with 3 heads of cabbage in my fridge. Not my fault. I like cabbage just as much as the next person, but I don’t have a ton of go-to cabbaged based recipes. I mean, I have a few, but not enough for 3 heads of it! But I have never let…

Asian Noodle Soup (Cheater Vegetarian Ramen)
I’m back and it feels good! I took quite the blogging hiatus in order to move across the country, go on some road trips, get settled in a new town, and adjust to a crazy new life style. My husband graduated from medical school in May and started his Intern year of residency a…
Sweet Potato Salsa Veggie Burgers with Cholula Mayo

My Answer to the Question “So…What do you Eat?” (A Guide to Eating More Veggies in 2015 and Tips for Successful Menu Planning)
About four years ago I started slowly cutting meat out of my meals. For about two years I have been eating 95% vegetarian. Why? Well, its complicated. And its not the point of this post. And my point is certainly not to convince everyone to become Vegetarian. Not at all. I am not passionate about…

I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas! I did! I have had a few technical difficulties with my computer over the last few weeks, so I haven’t been able to post all the recipes that I had planned this month. But we are back in business and I have lots of healthy recipes for the…
Kale Pesto
I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving! After eating way to much and a few days of left over pie for breakfast, I’m ready to get back to some healthy food! At least for a short time before Christmas goodies become too abundant. I am a huge fan of pesto sauce. All summer long,…
Pink Applesauce (Small Batch)
A few days ago I went apple picking with my husband and daughter and it was magical. We ate straight from the tree until we were sick and went home with a big bag of the most beautiful, delicious Suncrisp apples. They are the best apples I have ever eaten. We decided right away that…
