Apple Saute w/ Maple Tofu & Apple Cider Gravy
Apple Week dinner recipe! Hoooraaaah! First off, I accomplished a couple exciting things for the blog today! Look, a logo! I really hope you didn’t log onto the blog this afternoon around my lunch break, cause you probably saw this logo in one of about 17 weird locations with strange font and numerous awful borders…

Leftover Makeover: Baked Arancini
Got leftover risotto? Perhaps from my last post? 🙂 It’s just never as good re-heated. Sad fact. So here’s what to do with your leftovers. Arancini are one of those decadently amazing foods that I had to indulge in every now and then in my pre-vegan days. Sadly, it’s pretty much impossible to find…

Saffron & Peas Risotto
I don’t really have any story behind this dish. I just love risotto, and I make it kind of a lot. I wanted to make sure y’all know how surprisingly easy it is to make! Enjoy 🙂

Sweet Potato Chorizo Cakes w/ Mango-Avocado Salsa

Thai Pizza Veggie Burgers

Spinach & Artichoke Pasta
Not to toot my own horn too much (yes, I really just used that phrase), buuuuuut I did something kind of awesome the other day. I made my Spinach & Artichoke Dip. Then I tossed it with hot pasta.

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.

Herbed Ricotta Summer Squash Pizza
Whole wheat dough. Fresh vibrant summer squash. Herbed tofu ricotta. That is, the new Tofutti Ricotta Cheese! I am in love with Tofutti’s cream cheese, so I was extra excited to give the ricotta a try. Tofu ricotta is plenty easy to make, I know, but I just had to try the ease…

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…
