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…

Fresh Veggie Tempeh Rice Paper Rolls
Happy Fri-YAY! Wow, I know I say this all the time, but this week just flew by. Yesterday was a pretty crazy weather day where I live. We had some sporadic thunderstorms and really heavy rains off and on. As crazy as it might sound to you if you’re not a fan, I literally LOVE storms. I grew up where we had so many Summer thunderstorms and I know they’re terrifying to a lot of people and I understand completely. It’s just, when I was a kid my family were the weirdos that would congregate on the patio just to watch the lightning and try to spy a tornado. The area I…

The Best Fried Mozzarella Cheese Sticks (Vegan)
They’re melty, they’re crispy, they’re hot, and oh man are they CHEESY! Yes, I made some all-time classic snacks to share today, mozzarella sticks, baby! Mozzarella sticks are such a major crowd pleaser, it’s ridicuolous. Really, I can never believe how quickly they get devoured by my family, particularly the dudes, but actually everyone loves them. They’re essentially just a different form of pizza, right? Game-changers, that’s what these are. <-True stuff. That’s why I was so surprised the first time I tried making them with a dairy free alternative. I honestly didn’t think that it would work but they went over so well that no one could tell the difference. So…

Warm Sage & Almond Pesto Roasted Potato Salad
You know what is a pretty broad term? Salad. I feel like I’ve said this same thing many times before, actually I know I have, but it’s as true as ever. Where I grew up in the southern part of the States, every gathering with friends or church potluck was proof of this fact. It may even surprise some of you to know that it’s a common thing to make dessert salads in the mid-west. I kid you not, one popular version of that type of salad includes marshmallows, cherries, and whipped cream. My mom used to make it a lot for parties and we loved it. I’m just saying, a “salad” doesn’t…

Rainbow Veggie Summer Rolls & Tahini Orange Dipping Sauce
Hey guys, I’ve got a super fun way for us to get our daily veggies to share! So you know how last weekend I promised I’d have some healthier stuff soon? Well, I’m really hoping that these summer rolls fit the bill because, I’ve gotta tell you, all of these colors have me pretty excited over here. I adore photographing natural colors and I even tend to get a little carried away with it sometimes. These for example, I took about a trillion photos of them and they’ve definitely been one of the most fun recipes I’ve shot pics of recently. Talk about tasting the rainbow! Okay, so these summer rolls are so easy to…

Easy Raspberry Jalapeno Dip & Homemade Wheat Thins
Did you all have a really great weekend? I hope so, I had one of the best ever! This was my first Christmas as an aunty and also my last one as a teenager (omg, that’s kinda sad ;( ). My nephew was so cute opening his first presents ever, absolutely adorable and hilarious at the same time. Anyone have plans for New Year’s? Is it just me or is it a very anti-climatic holiday after the hype of Christmas? I’ve always thought so. We don’t have any traditions or anything special that we do as a family. Most years we just spend the weekend trying to cram in replays of our favorite…
