Coconut Tempeh Nuggets
Remember coconut shrimp? Addictive. Vegan spin has arrived. Also addictive. I’ve had 4 servings in 2 days. Mmmmm. Tempeh cubes breaded in panko and coconut with a yummy miso glaze to make that crispy goodness stick to it. Delicious.

Baked Sausage & Kale Rice
This is one of those secret meals. It tastes like it’ll make you pack on the pounds and roll into a food coma, but it’s actually full of healthy, energizing, nutrient-rich foods. It’s also incredibly fast to prepare. It has to bake long enough to heat up, but the actual hands-on prep time […]
