Spicy Sweet Vegetable Stir-fry (Vegan+GF)
Can I just say that it's really cold out, and I don't like it! I'm so ready for Spring, and yeah, I know it's only January.........ugh!!!! My strategy for staying warm usually involves running around the kitchen and standing near hot surfaces to avoid turning into a human Popsicle. I really love baking sweet things to eat with hot drinks like cocoa and coffee too, that's always a solid option. But we're actually not talking about sweets today (I know, kinda sad right?)

Spiced Sweet Potato Bread + Brown Sugar Icing (Vegan)
The decade is almost over guys! I know everyone’s posting retrospective photos, talking about goals for the next decade, and basically just wondering how it passed so quickly. Me? I’m honestly not too concerned about it. I mean, it’s exciting to be starting a new global chapter for sure. I guess I’m just not so into focusing on new year’s (or in this case new decade’s) resolutions as if that’s the only time to make big life decisions. I sort of prefer to make them on a daily basis. Besides, I’ve never been the greatest at sticking to arbitrary resolutions set out of obligation. I think if something matters to you you’ll stick…

Easy Pumpkin Vegetable Curry (Vegan+GF)
Time for a cozy veggie curry, sound good? So one of my favorite questions that I get asked since going plant-based is if my family is also plant-based. Lol, now that’s a funny joke. (JK, I lied. My favorite question will forever be “where do you get your protein” ;P ) In case you missed the sarcasm, no they’re not at ALL plant-based. In fact, I get a lot of crap from each of them on a regular basis. I mean, it’s all good fun but they definitely like to tease me and you know what, I have no problem teasing right back. Besides, the way I see it -> more for me.…

“Cheesy” Polenta Covered Mexican Tamale Pie (Vegan+GF)
I think there will always be something a little bit comical about Mexican food to me. Years ago when I first started blogging I was still living in the southern part of Chile with my family. I’ll never forget my assumptions of what it would be like before I’d ever been there. You see, me being a naive North American I just assumed everything south of Texas would be the land of great Mexican food. Well, news flash to me, it’s not. In fact, the area we were living in had way more European style cuisine than just about anything else. However the Chileans, of course, have their own style of cooking. It’s…

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…

Sea Salt & Tahini Chocolate Chip Cookies (Vegan)
If I ever run out of new ways to reinvent the chocolate chip cookie I’ll probably have to stop blogging all together. Like “Let’s pack it up guys my work’s done here.” But seriously, these are gonna be a popular addition to my chocolate chip cookie recipe collection. If you haven’t noticed I’ve created a few. Lol.🍪🍪🍪🍪 This is one if f those times where I had a random idea that I just needed to make as soon as possible. You know, like those great ideas you get in the middle of the night or in the shower. Well, this was one of those. Besides, sea salt and tahini just sound so good…
