Is there anything better than a BLT sandwich?  Maybe a vegan "TLT" in the form of a salad, perhaps? BLTs are just one of those staple sandwiches in the American diet, you know?  But maybe not so much for us veggie-eating folks... Just because we do not eat bacon does not mean that vegetarians and [...]

A simple, yet hearty chickpea salad recipe that is perfect for vegans and non-vegans alike! Some of you are probably thinking... "not another chickpea salad!"  Or if you are like me, you may be thinking... "Yes!  Another chickpea salad!"

I really enjoy taking a peak in other people's grocery carts and shopping bags (in a totally non-creepy way, I [...]

A pumpkin, corn, and pea veggified macaroni and cheese that takes comfort food to a whole new (much healthier) level. I love macaroni and cheese just as [...]

Happy Friday!  Fridays never roll around often enough now do they?  I am thinking we should definitely make the weekend at least four days long.  Who agrees?  I should probably dream on because I don't see that happening anytime soon. What could happen more frequently, though, is my Friday Foodie Favorites posts.  It has never been [...]

A delicious vegan buffalo sandwich that will leave you asking, "who needs chicken?" Not convinced?  Well, it sounds like I need to prove you wrong! Since becoming a vegetarian about two and a half years ago, there are really only a few meaty foods that I really miss.  And guess what?  Chicken is not one of [...]

This delicious egg salad incorporates the tastes of Summer produce: fresh peppers, peas, and tomatoes. I eat approximately 90% vegan and one of the main reasons why it is not 100% is because of my love for eggs.  I really love eggs. Scrambled eggs. Poached eggs. Sunnyside-up eggs. Hardboiled eggs. Let's be real.  Eggs are good [...]
