Today is Wednesday...Wednesday, March 20th to be exact! Which also means that it is my dad's birthday! So, I must give a birthday shout out to him :). Now I am pretty much wordless tonight, so let's just get right to the eats, shall we? What I Ate Wednesday Breakfast [...]

In my 23 years of life as a meat-eater, I can specifically remember eating sauerkraut only one time. And I specifically remember absolutely hating the taste of it! During my early college days I picked a Reuben sandwich off of the buffet line at the cafeteria out of pure curiosity. [...]
My best friend from college moved from Iowa to Arizona almost three years ago. Since then, I have traveled out to the Phoenix area several times to visit her, enjoy the warm (HOT!) weather, and to partake in some good eats. One of my favorite restaurants that we have dined [...]
Trust me when I say that I absolutely enjoy cooking. Every single week I meal plan, grocery shop with my list of needed ingredients, and cook meals about five to six nights out of the week (thank goodness for leftovers on those other nights!). I truly find that cooking - [...]

I have mentioned before that one of my favorite foods that I miss from my meat-eating days is my dad's meatloaf. There was always just something so delicious and comforting about sitting down to that meal. You may remember, though, that I have found an awfully delicious substitute in my [...]
My first experience with falafel was a good one. My second experience was even better! I can honestly say that my love for falafel began at first bite. And considering my obsession (yes, I admit that it is a bit of an obsession) with chickpeas, my devotion to falafel should [...]
More than a year after adopting a vegetarian diet, I am still continually amazed by the foods that I not only eat, but crave. Did I like BBQ pulled pork sandwiches before I ate a vegetarian diet? I did not hate them, but I sure did not crave them and [...]
I don't know about you, but I am a sucker for a good chili soup! There is just something so comforting about chili. Generally, I go the more traditional route and make Vegetarian Chili. Sometimes I like to spice things up by adding soyrizo to my chili. This time, however, I wanted to spice things [...]
