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…

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…

Roasted Brussels Sprouts Brown Rice Salad with Sesame Orange Dressing
Wow, it feels so foreign to be back to blogging about food after two weeks of traveling and so much other stuff going on in my life. I have to say the break was amazing for me and I wanted to thank you for understanding the pause in my usual post schedule. I also could have done without that awful few days of being sick but I believe there’s a reason for everything and I’m choosing to look at it in a positive light. So since getting home from traveling I’ve been on this major salad craze. Personally, I have no stipulations or rules for what the definition of a salad can be.…

Chocolate Tahini Smoothie
So It’s the weekend and I know we’ve all got life going on all around us so I’m keeping it short and sweet today. I’m just popping in to share this smoothie recipe that I made this past week because it’s one any smoothie lover is going to be thrilled with. That is, of course, unless you’re one of those fruity smoothie people who think chocolate should be strictly in desserts. You’re not, right??? This smoothie is simple, fast, and only a few ingredients. It’s also gluten free, dairy free, and vegan, and you can adapt it very easily too. For example, peanut butter is a great sub for the tahini and if…

Indian Carrot Lentil Salad with Curry Tahini Dressing (Vegan)
Is it just me or does life always seem to get the craziest when you think it’s going to slow down? It’s as if just by being hopeful for a little break in the rush you somehow make things worse. I’ve honestly been struggling a little bit recently to write about food sometimes amidst so many different things going on around me. I guess it’s just life but it’s sort of looking more and more like a big mess of chaos from where I’m standing at the moment. I’m not saying that it’s all negative stuff either, actually a lot of it is good. Plus, I believe that looking at life with a…

Asian Tempeh Tacos with Black Sesame Slaw
I thought I’d try starting off the week with something on the savory side since typically I seem to lean towards the sweets on Mondays. I’m trying to start off the year being good. (Don’t worry though, I’ve got plenty of sugar on the horizon 😉 ) Is it just me or does it feel like we’ve been in this new year for way longer than we really have? It’s barely been a week but somehow it seems more like a month to me. So what’s been going on in your world? To give a little bit of real life updates on my life, it’s been fairly the same as always. Our house is…

Roasted Veggie Sweet Potato Power Bowls + Yogurt Tahini Sauce
Wow, it’s Friday already???? I have no clue what happened to this week, but it flew by. Sorry I’m freaking out a little bit but today marks the 1 week countdown until Christmas eve, eve! Did you realize that???? I know this happens every year, and I do this same thing every year, but I’m being completely honest when I say that I’ve never had a Christmas sneak up on me like this one. I’m both extremely excited and slightly sad that it’s so close to being passed us. Not to mention I still have so many things to get done this next week, as I’m sure you do too. We clearly have all…
