(Raw) Ranch Kale Chips
I am absolutely in love with making kale chips with some serious crunchy coating. I started with my cheesy nacho variety and now it’s time for ranch! I have no idea what’s next, but it’s going to happen soon. These are satisfying and delicious treats. I may or may not have had lunch a couple…

Overnight Steel Cut Oats Muesli
Did you know you can have overnight oats with steel cut oats? You can eat them raw. Just need to soak ’em and soften ’em! It’s a truly terrific way to start your day. This little bowl of goodies is so darn filling!

Pasta Primavera
I am in love with this simple adaptable veggie dish. My dad made this for me and my sister sometimes when we were growing up – one of very few meals that would actually get me to eat some vegetables. It had to be loaded with tons of garlicky goodness (weird kid, I know), and…

Beet & Berries Juice
I mentioned in my weekend recap that I was craving beets last weekend. Of course, I had to look up what nutrients are in beets – what health benefit do they have that I am lacking to give me such a craving? Well, that smart body of mine must have known that beets help detox your…

Welcome to the first in a new series I’m doing called Fix My Pics! This is a long-term project I plan to work on in which I will replace some nasty, yellow, out-of-focus, poorly-cropped, can’t-believe-I-used-the-flash photos in old posts with new my-DSLR-is-so-fancy-and-now-I-know-what-kind-of-lighting-I-need pictures. Did that make sense? Maybe only to my fellow crazies. How bout…

Leftover Makeover: Sun Dried Tomato Pesto Hummus
Quickie post for you today! I mentioned on my Sun Dried Tomato Pesto Pizza post that I usually make a double batch of pesto when I make it and tend to eat half of it just spread on bread and whatnot. Well, I didn’t seem to feel like that lately. My extra batch of pesto…

Pineapple Teriyaki Soy Curls
Hello, happy dinner 🙂 I mentioned my pineapple teriyaki soy curls yesterday in my super-late weekend recap. I threw this dish together in about 20 minutes over the weekend, packed it up while it was piping hot, and took it to the drive-ins with the boyfriend. It stayed crazy hot during the ride…

Buffalo Cauliflower Wings + Ranch Sauce
I officially found my favorite way to eat cauliflower. Battered, baked, and covered in buffalo sauce. Obviously. This is a delicious recipe I found on An Edible Mosaic, which I just discovered this week and can’t stop looking at! There are a lot of vegan and vegetarian (easily veganized) dishes on this site, plus some…

Blueberry Muffin Protein Smoothie
A few days ago, I posted a picture of this smoothie on Instagram – if you follow me, you probably noticed how damn excited I was. This was an accidental creation that I am super proud of. It was one of those mornings when I was running really late and wanted to make a fast smoothie…
