I have a confession. I have a problematic habit of subscribing to cooking, health, and fitness magazines, finding promising or inspiring recipes in them, tearing the recipes out with the greatest of intentions to utilize them, and then leaving them stacked in a pile for months and months. Starting this year, I have made a [...]
Sandwiches
My food obsessions and addictions tend to vary month to month, but one that has held true for the past several months has been grilled sandwiches. You may remember my post for The Best Homemade Grilled Cheese, or this post for a Grilled Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwich. The most recent grilled sandwich that I [...]
One of the major reasons why I have wanted a food processor for so long was so that I would be able to make these... Since becoming a vegetarian a little over a year ago, I have eaten quite a few vegetarian burgers. Most of the veggie burgers that I [...]
I have been totally crushing on peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, lately. I went through a span of several years where I do not think that I picked up a single PB & J sandwich. But over the past month I have brought an old childhood favorite back into my life. In fact, eating a [...]

Since transitioning to a vegetarian lifestyle, veggie burgers and black bean burgers have become staple meals when I am seeking something that is quick and easy to prepare. You may remember my mention of making black bean burgers from the Everyday Happy Herbivore cookbook during a past WIAW post. Earlier this week, I took this recipe and adapted [...]
I must be craving pizza badly because I have been on a major "pizza" kick lately. Today I created another pizza-inspired meal- this time, for lunch! Pizza Toasters Servings: 1 Ingredients 2 pieces of 100% whole wheat bread (I used Ezekiel's brand) 1/4 cup to 1/2 cup of pizza sauce 1 [...]
Many times when I make dinner I make two versions in order to please both the meat eaters in my family and myself. This is really easy to do when making certain meals (tacos, spaghetti, etc.). Tonight I made two versions of meatball subs using "real" meatballs and MorningStar veggie meatballs. The MorningStar veggie meatballs were enjoyed by [...]
