Caribbean Jerk Spiced Sweet Potato Falafel Gyros (Vegan+GF)
Hey, guess what? It’s Meatless Monday again! Okay, for all of you aren’t overly thrilled with this idea, hold on just a sec, pretty please! Really, just give these a chance and I think you’ll be surprised how good these gyros are. Plus, how can you go wrong when you stuff anything into a fresh and fluffy pita, come on? It’s almost a no-fail situation. Okay, but back to the recipe; You know, I’ve never made falafel before. I know, isn’t that dumb? I’ve tried veggie burgers and similar things, yes, but never falafel. To be honest, I didn’t even know exactly what it was even made with until I started trying different things…

Sourdough Caprese BLAT Sandwiches + Roasted Garlic Coconut Butter (Vegan)
BLTs, how do you feel about them? If you just answered that they’re the greatest invention ever then (ding, ding ding, give ’em a prize!!!) I think we can still be friends. Phew, I was a little bit worried for a sec. Now, to be completely honest, I was never a fan of actual bacon, even before I went plant-based. However, when I first tried coconut bacon I immediately fell in love with it. So is it weird to imagine inanimate objects like sandwiches having their own personality? I think if a BLT had a personality it’d be all self-assured and possibly even a bit arrogant about itself. I mean come on, how…

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…

Layered Fiesta Taco Bowls with Vegan “Bacon” Bits
I’ve got a question to ask, am I the only one who had never even heard of “bacon” made from plants until recently! Well if not, it’s totally a thing guys! Facon exists!!! At first I was averse to the whole idea and completely on team You can’t even go there! Even as a young kid I never liked bacon so I was pretty skeptical. That is, of course, until I tried the stuff. Omg peeps, it’s insane! So about these bowls, I know “bacon” may not be the most typical thing to add to your tacos, or in this case taco bowls, but I was surprised by how much it works. A few bites of these…

Thai Cashew Stir-Fry & Lemongrass Infused Brown Rice
I think I might be obsessed with Thai food you guys…….. Like, if I just found out I only had a few days to live I’d probably make eating some Thai one of my top priorities. Have you ever thought about that, by the way? What would you eat if nothing else mattered and it was all about what you actually love to eat. If you could take away every other factor (nutrition, expense, calories, availability, etc…….), if none of those things existed what would you eat just because you genuinely love the taste? I find it hard to decide what I personally favor and you probably do too, becuase all of those…

Balsamic Roasted Peach, Almond, & Cilantro Pizza (Vegan)
Welcome to the month of February, where 93% of New Year’s resolutions come to die. I mean, can you honestly admit to not having fallen off the wagon all year? If so then I’m super happy for you, you’re an incredible individual with astonishing willpower. For those of us living in a more realistic world though, this is where the line between strictly healthy food and cravings for chocolate starts to get a little bit blurred. As far as pizzas are conscerned though, this one isn’t too bad. It’s got some pretty undeniably healthy toppings. It’s where the cheese and yeasty bread crust come in that we start approaching that tipping point. But…
