Crispy Baked Almond Crusted Tofu Sticks (Vegan+GF)
So um, it’s been a long time since I’ve posted regularly. Yep, it’s been a minute. I realize that some life updates are due because I’ve really only been active on Instagram this Summer. (If you’re just here for the recipe just scroll right on down. I promise I won’t get offended.) Eh hem, well, I decided it was a good idea to get some social interaction this season. Any bloggers out there probably understand the need for this, lol. Anyway, I’ve been working at a local restaurant in case you missed that. Also, since the town I live in is kind of a Summer tourist destination, it gets pretty crazy this time…

Sweet Hot Mustard Grilled Tofu Satay (Vegan+GF)
Guys, can you believe grill season is nearly upon us???? Well I certainly can’t. I had to do a double take this morning when I checked my calendar and realized we’re halfway through the year already. I don’t know about you but I think this is gonna be an awesome Summer and I’m excited! Everyone knows that no Summer would be complete without some great grill recipes and that’s where this one comes in. Today I’m doing something I haven’t done in a while, teaming up with a great brand. This recipe gets it’s popping flavors from Maille Mustard, which is basically your grill best friend. I specifically used the Maille Old…

Black Rice Vegetable Sushi Rolls (Vegan+GF)
What time is it? Sushi Time! To be honest, I never acquired a taste for sushi until I was in my teens. I didn’t like the fishy taste of the seaweed and I especially didn’t like idea of raw fish, which I like even less now. Yeah, you won’t find any raw fish recipes here on the blog but the good news is that you can still make some delicious varieties of sushi with just some good old vegetables. In the past I’ve done all kinds of sushi with things like sweet potato or avocado but today I wanted to keep it really simple. As for the rice, I happened to have some…

Veggie Grain Bowls with Crispy “Parm” Roasted Chickpeas & Aji Ranch (Vegan+GF)
Anyone else craving some wholesome goodness? I’ve been so inspired recently by all of the pretty and healthy bowls that everyone has been making. All of the modern, hip food bloggers are doing them. There are a bunch of different names for them; buddha bowls, nourish bowls, quinoa bowls, there’s even the smoothie bowls going on. Basically, everything is in bowls and if it’s not then you aren’t doing it right. My main goal for this recipe was to keep things really simple and I even took some optional short-cuts/cheats for my own bowls. The first step is to make the “parm” chickpeas which are way easier to make than you might think.…

Chipotle Inspired Sofritas Burrito Bowls (Vegan+GF)
I’m feeling some serious taco Tuesday vibes today, what do you think? Wow, it feels like it’s been ages since I’ve added a fresh recipe to the blog. Oh yeah, it has! This whole deal with moving a website has been way more than I bargained for if I’m being honest. I’m happy to say that I’m nearly done sorting everything out but I was just dying to share a recipe today. I mean, I haven’t added a new one all year! These bowls are a nod to the popular restaurant chain’s menu item, sofritas. I’d never actually tried this, much less made it, until this past Summer. My cousin came to visit…

Harvest Time Apple & Pumpkin Chili (Vegan+GF)
Please tell me you’re week needs some delicious comfort right about now because, if so, this is exactly what you need! How do you feel about chili? To me it always seems like chili is one of those meals that doesn’t get appreciated enough. I don’t get it, it’s so homey and chock full of flavors, oh, and you can load it with so many good things like guacamole and eat it with cornbread, YUM!. Plus, it’s versatile and you can do so many things with it (Hello chili-cheese fries!), what’s not to love? I have to tell you, even within my own family chili isn’t the most popular. I mean, everyone will…

Autumn Squash Soft Pretzels (Vegan+GF)
It’s getting so close to being officially Autumn and I’m so psyched! I won’t even bother starting on how much I love this time of year because I’m afraid it’s all I’ve been talking about lately. However, I will give fair warning that I’m almost certainly going to be getting a little excited about the theme in my coming recipes. So with these pretzels, I was thinking back to a recipe for dinner rolls that I made using pumpkin. It’s a similar idea, but let’s be honest, pretzels are way more fun. I had some different squashes that I wanted to try and both of them turned out well. One was a butternut…
