Daylight Savings Veggie Menu Planning Monday

Yesterday I was the most productive I may have ever been. Got my weeklies cooked and 2 entrees! I think I love daylight savings time, at least in the fall when we get that ‘extra’ hour. I’m obviously obsessed with orange veggies – especially pumpkin. Yum! Muffin of the week: Fat Free Pumpkin Raisin Biscuits [...]

I Love Fall Veggie Menu Monday

I love fall. I have the windows open to the fresh air, and have major cravings for swiss chard, kale, apples, soups and pumpkin in everything! This is my second week of making a batch of muffins for my morning sweet fix. I’ve been sneaking in flax and oat bran for good measure. I also [...]

Pesto Anyone?

I have 3 kinds of basil this year Italian, lemon, and Thai all growing in my garden. Some are in the veggie bed and I have others in containers. If you have no space you can even grow some inside on a sunny window sill. If you don’t have a garden you should be able [...]

Vegan Chickenless and Rice Soup

I’ve over extended myself this week, so we’ve been eating out a lot. So to make up for it, I have been eating soup for lunch everyday. So here’s another soup recipe. This can be made in the slow cooker, but I did it stove top and it took less than 1 hour from start [...]

Vegan Slow Cooker Picky Eater’s Soup

You know the drill, and I’m sure you’ve all heard the protests of “what’s that in my food?!” Picky little ones often grow up to be picky adults. And while I’m kid-less, I still hear about texture issues and fight the good veggie fight all the time. This one worked really good, she even asked [...]

BBQ Tofu Veggie Pizza

I’m not much of a super bowl person. In fact I can’t think of any sports that I want to sit down and watch. Don’t be mad though, I’m fine with the rest of the world hanging at super bowl parties while I’m shopping, or dining in peace and quiet. I’ve recommitted myself to eating [...]

Slow Cooker Cajun 16 Bean Soup

I love soup and I can be lazy. So it should come as no surprise how easy it is to make this soup. I had a bag of 16 bean mix and was craving something more texturally adventurous than split pea soup. For a long time I avoided buying the 16 bean mix because it [...]

Marx Foods is Having a Truffle Giveaway

Marx Foods is great about having contests and this one is super easy. Just leave a comment and you may win 1/4 lb. fresh truffles. That’s a prize I would love to win. I use truffle oil, but haven’t had the privilege of using fresh ones yet. Vegan Sausage and Apples with White Truffle Oil [...]

Red Flannel Veggie Hash

I used to have a recipe book that had a beet potato hash in it, but I’ve long since given it away. So here’s my newest recipe for root veggie hash. Red Flannel Veggie Hash 3 potatoes, diced 1 sweet potato, diced 1 large carrot, diced 1 small beet, diced 1/2 onion, minced 2 garlic [...]
