Broccoli & Soy Curl Red Curry + “Homemade” Curry Paste
I already told you I’ve had an endless Thai curries craving. Well, that also had me on a search for the perfect Thai red curry paste. An excessive search. That had me in grocery stores too many times, which is really dangerous for me because I love grocery shopping and I want everything right now!…

Baked Lasagna Toss (aka Almost Lasagna)
I just HAD to make another recipe with the second half of this ricotta recipe. I can’t get over how much I love it. This is the recipe I thought I’d start with rather than my squash pasta, but as I mentioned I went all squash-crazy at the store, so plans changed. Now it’s time…

Peanut Butter Grilled Cheese
Preston has been telling me since we met that a peanut butter grilled cheese is one of his favorite sandwiches. Weird. So weird. The other night I made a recipe with Daiya’s new cheddar style slices, and he took a bite and said, “you know what this would be good for?” To which I immediately…

Squash & Roasted Garlic Ricotta Pasta
As soon as I saw this beautiful recipe for vegan ricotta, I had to give it a try. It. is. divine. Seriously don’t need to try any more ricotta recipes, this one is fantastic and simple. Expect to see a handful of ricotta recipes with this one, because I am super happy to have ricotta…

Ginger-Garlic Tofu Salad
Folks, it’s been a really long time since I posted a salad recipe. It’s because I haven’t been eating them nearly as much as usual either….oops. My normal salad appeal has just not been there lately. I’ve had plenty of veggies – roasted, in soups, cooked into all the curry dishes I’ve been eating…

Coconut Red Curry Pumpkin Risotto
The pumpkin continues!!! I’ve had a couple serious cravings lately. The first is Thai curries. A few weeks ago Preston ordered some from a restaurant directly across the street from my apartment. I’m pretty sure there’s crack in it, because ever since I stole just a few bites of that red curry, I have been dyyyyying for as much…

Stuffed Avocado Nacho Bowls
Quickie recipe post today! I found a low-maintenance, super easy meal that is SO.MUCH.FUN. Like most of my favorite recipes, this is also easily adjustable so you can make it suit your own taste. Or give it some variety and make it over and over and over again.

Weeknight Coconut Curry Lentils
It’s the end of a long day and I get home from work hungry. I know I should cook a healthful meal. But I’m tired. I got up at the crack of dawn (after too little sleep, far too often) and worked out, then worked a full day, and now I just want to relax and nourish myself. So I head…

Sweet Tomato Compote w/ Chick’n Scallopini
I have been meaning to make this for almost a year now. I have so many ideas for recipes that it can take a really really realllly long time to get around to actually doing them. Last October, I wrote many posts about Sacramento’s Vegan Chef Challenge. It’s an event where local non-vegan restaurants offer…

Weeknight Enchilada Lasagna
Now I know I’ve been raving and raving about how excited I am for fall. And that statement totally stands. It’s way true. But I definitely took for granted how amazing the long daylight hours this summer were, so that anything I made for dinner I could last minute snap some great pictures of to…
