Creamy Mushroom Stroganoff (Vegan+GF)
There really is nothing like comfort foods to get through the grey months after the holiday season is over. If you’re anything like me January is a very sad month after all the excitement of December. It’s pretty drab where I live in Northern Idaho right now. I can usually count on at least having a white blanket of snow to brighten these months that seem so long. While I don’t like having to drive in snow it does improve my mood in the Winter. This year seems determined to be fickle and throw all kinds of weather at us. Earlier this week we had the craziest wind storm. Downtown Coeur d’ Alene…

Broccoli & Cashew Pesto Pasta (Vegan+GF)
How is it already getting into September? And how is it that this year seems to be taking forever and yet flying by all at the same time?? It’s definitely a strange year and I think we can all agree it hasn’t been the easiest. Making meals at home is definitely a form of therapy for me that helps to get through hard times. I’ve especially enjoyed my time in my own kitchen since my schedule makes that a more rare thing right now than it used to be. This pesto pasta is something that I made a recently when I was craving some comfort food. Pesto is one of those foods that…

25-Minute Thai Peanut Soba Noodle Salad (Vegan)
I’m such a fan of Asian flavors you guys. If I didn’t try to keep things interesting here I’d probably just end up sharing stir-fry recipes and sushi every single day. As it is, I think I share quite a few recipes with those flavors. This recipe is one that you might be familiar. Or, maybe it’s something you’ve never heard of and it sounds super intriguing to you. I know I did when I first heard of something like this. First of all, can we just take a second to acknowledge the double standards within cultures when it comes to food. For example, who decided that pancakes and waffles are for breakfast?…

Kale & Spinach Vegan Chickpea Mac & Cheese (GF)
Think Vegan Chickpea Mac and Cheese can’t possibly compete with “normal” Mac? Think again. This vegan mac and cheese is easy to make, creamy, healthy, gluten free, and delicious! Wow, this pasta though! I’ve been feeling so inspired and excited by the weather warming up. I live pretty far North and the day length changes drastically throughout the year. For example, when we reach the longest day of the year the sun doesn’t set until almost 10:30 pm! This is pretty inconvenient for me in the Winter because I’ve always chosen to use natural light for my photography. This cuts my opportune working window pretty short throughout the colder seasons. Not gonna lie,…

Spicy Thai Vegetable Tahini Stir-Fry Ramen (Vegan+GF)
And just like that we all wake up to December. Happy fri-yay and happy December my friends! It’s funny, you’d think the reality of time moving on would eventually set in after a while……..but somehow it’s always surprising to me. You know what I mean? Well anyway, I realized there’s been a lot of sweet stuff around here recently and I thought it was about time I shared something on the savory side with you guys, you know, cuz balance and stuff. Although, if life worked the way I wanted it to this time of year then we’d be able to thrive on Christmas cookies and chocolate treats all month. Of course, then…

I won’t…
