Loaded Sweet Potato Chili Cheese Fries (Vegan+GF)
Okay, major confession time…… I’ve never made sweet potato fries before. Don’t judge, it’s just that most of the french fry lovers in my family claim to hate sweet potatoes so I’ve always felt it would be a pointless venture. But now there will be no going back. I’ve opened the door to homemade french frying and everyone knows that they can be done. Fact: there will be more fries happening, a lot of em, and very soon. I think that if regular potato fries went up against sweet potato fries in a competition to see which tastes better chili-cheesified, the latter would win hands down every time. Sorry regular tatos, we’ll still…

Mozzarella Stuffed Pesto Pizza Monkey Bread (Vegan)
I’m not really sure why they call this type of bread a monkey bread. I suggested that maybe it’s because when everyone is picking at the delicious pieces it resembles the way primates groom each other and eat their findings. I was dumb enough to mention this while my brothers were around so, of course, they gave me their opinions and since my idea was already borderline gross they had to outdo it. One of them said that it’s because it looks like a giant monkey brain like on Indiana Jones and I won’t mention what the other one said. Thank you boys, that’s just the mental picture that will make everyone want…

Easy Black Bean and Lentil Chili (Vegan+GF)
Did someone say they were feeling chilly? or was that chili? I couldn’t tell cuz, honestly I’m feeling both! In recent years, my family has become huge fans of Chili. My parents and older siblings have always liked chili, but my younger siblings have not liked it up until recently. So as result, I did not make it that often. But now, it’s a household favorite so I am always trying to put a little spin or tweak to it here and there. I love adding lentils to chili because they hide really well. We also like to serve it with cornbread. I have shared a few versions of cornbread but THIS ONE is…

Creamy Corn Chowder + Rye Bread Bowls (Vegan)
So have you had an awesome Summer? Well, my summer has been pretty great so far and I’m really excited to see what comes next. Okay, about the recipe. I have been wanting to make bread bowls for what seems like such a long time! I mean, who doesn’t love getting to eat the bowl when the soup is gone? Plus, it looks so pretty and rustic when you serve it. And I don’t know about you, but I have always loved corn chowder. I think I should mention that my soup was not quite as corny and thick as it looks in the pictures. That is due to me spending too long…
