Nope... it is still not a hot dog. But it IS a "hot dog." Oh yes, the Carrot Hot Dog is back! When I first posted this recipe for Vegan Carrot Hot Dogs awhile back, I had absolutely no idea that it would become as popular as it has. It is consistently my most viewed [...]

This Sweet and Sour Lentils recipe contains the perfect combination of sweetness to sourness and packs a punch with nutritious vegetables, fruit, legumes, and whole grains. I am still majorly going strong on the sweet and sour kick. It's really quite funny, actually, because I refused to eat sweet and sour sauce as a child. My [...]
Red, White, and Blue Almond Trail Mix with Blue Diamond Almonds (Peanut-Free)
July 1, 2014 in Desserts, Recipes, Snacks
This Fourth of July trail mix recipe is sponsored by Blue Diamond Almonds as a part of their Tastemakers program. I was provided with free product and was compensated for my time.

We do, however, enjoy mushroom gravy and vegan gravy mixes from the grocery store. While mushroom gravy is absolutely fantastic (seriously, it is!), it can become a [...]
So... remember when I said that I was going to start posting my weekly meal plans more frequently? Yyyeah, so that has not really happened, huh? I did pretty well during the months of March and April and then... nothing. Now I am going to attempt to redeem myself and get back on track. Even [...]
Can you believe that a month has passed since the first edition of Three Cooks One Kitchen? If you are not familiar with 3C1K, it is a monthly cooking series where Erin, Joanna, and I get together, talk, cook, and eat. And we want to invite you into our kitchens each month to hang out. [...]
I know what you are probably thinking. "What in the world is wrong with this girl? Something that is green and something that is purple should not be combined. At least not when it comes to food." But hear me out... Yes, that is avocado. Yes, that is blackberry jam. And despite the fact that [...]
