Does anyone else hate throwing away all the juice pulp from juicing vegetables? A few weeks ago, I made the most heavenly Beet Braised Lentils from Feasting at Home. I topped it with goat cheese and dipped these Perfect Popovers from Chew Out Loud in the yummy juices. Heaven. The beet braised lentils called for…

Sweet Potato and Mushroom Hash
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…
Thai Inspired Raviolis with Cauliflower Veggie Filling and Creamy Peanut Sauce
This recipe is kind of out there. I admit it. But why not? Why not fill raviolis with a gingery veggie loaded filling and drizzle creamy peanut sauce over top. Who says Raviolis have to be strictly Italian? I also made it a little more Asian (and a lot easier!) by using wonton wrappers instead…
Cheesy Jalapeno Corn Dip (Lightened Up)
I was totally not planning on making this recipe. Actually, I’m going to let you in on a little secret. Don’t tell anyone…….I actually never really know what I am doing. I am not one of those bloggers who have a two year plan and post strategically to get the most views. Those bloggers truly…
Vegetarian Thanksgiving: Parmesan Potato Tian with Red Potatoes and Sweet Potatoes
When people ask if I am a vegetarian, I usually respond with “yes….mostly.” Its just easier to say that I am a vegetarian, but in all reality I’m not. True, I don’t cook with meat hardly ever and I don’t really order it at restaurants. But there are the rare occasions where I do…
Easy Baked Tempura Veggies
Sometimes I go a little crazy at the grocery store and buy too much produce. My favorite method of using up produce before it goes bad is to make baked tempura veggies. You can use almost any vegetable and it is really easy. I used to make more traditional tempura veggies where I mixed a…
A Healthy St. Patrick’s Day Dinner: Asian Green Veggie Cakes with Spicy Mayo Dipping Sauce
My husband and I are pretty different personalities in the kitchen. I often cling to a recipe for dear life, never straying. He almost never uses a recipe. I have always admired the way he takes whole spices and grinds them himself to make curry, never peeking at a recipe. Its different every time,…
Southwest Eggrolls with Creamy Roasted Red Pepper Dipping Sauce (Vegan)
What happens when you really want to make enchiladas or burritos, but you are fresh out of tortilla’s? You make due with egg roll wrappers! That is what happened to me the other night. I had to get creative! These egg rolls are super tasty. They are filled with all sorts of healthy stuff like…
Loaded Sweet Potatoes with Creamy Roasted Red Pepper Sauce (Vegan)
I need to take a minute to gush, here. And I mean gush and rave and jump up and down with excitement. What could get me so excited? CREAMY ROASTED RED PEPPER SAUCE!!! Oh. My. Goodness. This stuff is amazing and addicting and I think I am drooling on the key board. Can I…
