Pistachio+Kale Pesto Pita Pizzas (Vegan)
The basil strikes again! I know, I know, it’s been showing up in recipes a lot. It’s just my little plant is still sitting there in my kitchen saying “I’m beautiful, and fresh, and delicious, use me!” and I can’t resist. Clearly I need to start an herb garden so I get some flavor variety going on. Actually, as soon as the weather starts to warm a bit I’m doing it. We’ve got this little patio/porch area outside the back door that’s completely closed in and very bright so I’m probably going to takeover the area and make it my little greenhouse this Spring. It’s alright though because my fam is always willing…

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…

Chunky Chili Stuffed Sweet Potatoes (Vegan+GF)
I have an exciting recipe to share with you today guys. I mean, I know it’s pretty classic but personally I tend to go through food moods or get into dinner ruts sometimes and I forget about old favorite dinner recipes from the past. That’s why I thought I’d share this anyway. Before I get into that; some totally random things about me recently. I rarely have super vivid dreams these days but if I do it’s only when I wake up ridiculously early and then manage to go back to sleep (which that is something I usually can’t do). Anyway, I had this really strange morning dream yesterday where a zombie apocalypse was taking…

I won’t…

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…

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…
