This recipe is one of my lazy girl recipes. How can something with such a fancy name, be a lazy girl recipe you ask? Well, because it’s ready in under a half an hour and doesn’t make a huge mess, so clean up is minimal. Plus it’s an easy way to include your veggies for a complete …

Potato pan pizza is what dreams are made of. Chewy, doughy pan pizza with crispy slivers of peppery, salty potatoes, sweet bits of onion, heady rosemary, and creamy vegan mozzarella. Did I just describe the most perfect, indulgent pizza? I think so. This pan pizza is my take on pizza con patate, an ‘accidentally vegan’ option common …
Last week I roasted and filled red bell peppers and was reminded how fun and easy and it is to make stuffed foods. It inspired me to make these pea ricotta stuffed shells with a red wine marinara not even a week later! Like lasagna or other noodle-based casseroles, the shells are great hot out of the oven …
My family spent some time in India when I was a kid, and that was the first time I remember having whole urad dal (also known as black gram/black lentils). I’m not sure why I didn’t grow up eating it all the time but I became enamored of it. You might have had this variety of dal before …
Stuffed peppers are a classic vegetarian entree, maybe a bit less popular these days, but a common dish nonetheless. It’s definitely a dish I’ve been served on more then one occasion, typically filled with 90% rice, 10% cheese. The problem with this is 1) they are so not filling, one pepper and I’m still hungry, 2) …
Are you a sweet or savory breakfast person? I can go either way, but these days most of my breakfasts are savory. Typically I have toast, as I’m always baking bread. But sometimes you need to switch it up, and these vegan eggy bacon and chive muffins are perfect for that. They are easy to make and …
Caramelized onions, crumbled veggie burger, fresh basil, and delicious creamy vodka sauce. That is all it takes to make this delicious pizza. Vodka sauce is my new favorite pizza base, made creamy with cashews and a little cheesy with vegan parm or nutritional yeast. After simmering for a half hour on the stove the flavors blend together to create perfection, …
I eat a lot more mac and cheese style dishes now that I’m vegan. Which is odd, because I did really love cheesy pasta in my pre-gan days. It’s possible I eat it more frequently now because it comes with a lot less calorie-guilt. Or perhaps because my vegan versions are so pantry friendly. Maybe it’s …
This Indian curry is so good it’s going to make you want to buy extra kale every week. You would never guess while eating it, but the spiced kofta hides an entire huge bunch of curly kale in it! When kale is mixed with some mashed potato and chickpea flour, then fried (or baked, your call) to golden …
Spring is in the air! At least, it is in the lower latitudes of the Northern Hemisphere. But whether you are still dealing with near freezing temperatures, or, like me, overheating in a t-shirt while walking your dog in the afternoon, asparagus is finding its way into your grocery store. It’s certainly the best, and some …
