Do you guys ever have those days when you dropped the ball and don’t have a plan for lunch? Whenever I find myself in need of a quick meal, I turn to toast! This buffalo blue cheese smashed chickpea toast is my favorite!
Avocado toast has been all the craze recently. I never really got on board because, well, I didn’t consider toast to be a meal. When you top it with hearty and filling protein, like smashed chickpeas, why not? Continue reading

Have you ever enjoyed a poboy sandwich? They are a New Orleans classic often times filled with fried seafood. I made tuna meatball poboy sandwiches to reflect the classic seafood filling, but with a fun new twist! Continue reading

When I first started eating more meatless meals, buffalo chicken was the thing I missed most. I tried so many recipes to find something that I could substitute, but so few of them worked out. Cauliflower, however, has been my favorite food to transform into the spicy buffalo flavor that I was missing. The flavor of cauliflower is light, which makes it perfect to lather in spicy buffalo sauce. My breaded buffalo cauliflower sandwiches are light, but have loads of flavor, so you don’t feel like you’re missing a thing! Continue reading

Creamy, spicy, and salty with plenty of texture. Because it’s not on the regular menu, I had to make my own version to enjoy on a moments notice! This recipe is my take on spicy catfish poboys with creamy cajun spread. Continue reading

This recipe might be my favorite way to enjoy zucchini. Zucchini is my favorite summertime produce, which is great because when you grow zucchini, you tend to end up with a lot of them!

They encouraged me to cook as a kid, and maybe that’s why I enjoy it so much today – it takes me back to my youth. Back then, my grilled cheese sandwiches were simply made with cheddar, but this Gouda grilled cheese with apricot ginger spread is a delicious adult take on the simple and convenient grilled cheese sandwich.

I hope you guys didn’t get your fill of BBQ over memorial day weekend because today we are having vegan barbecue! If you have been eating meatless for very long, you certainly have come across jackfruit. If not, let me explain. Jackfruit is a large fruit native to Asia that when young and under ripe has a stringy, chewy texture that is considered very close to the texture of meat. It is used commonly as a meat replacement to make vegetarian dishes. One of the most commonly made jackfruit dishes is barbecue sandwiches because it mimics pulled pork very well. Today I am sharing my recipe for Classic Barbecue Jackfruit Sandwiches! Continue reading

Hot dogs were one of my favorite foods to eat during the summer as a kid. My mom would always have them in the house by keeping a stock of frozen dogs. I didn’t even bother to heat them up!! Boy life is different now. Good different. Vegan grilled carrot dogs different. Seriously, these carrot dogs take me back to my childhood. I can gobble up a whole plate of them! Continue reading

Is any body else on a total mushroom kick right now? I am just realizing that my last two recipe posts also had mushrooms in them, Two Potato Hash with Mushrooms, and Mushroom Lentil Bolognase. Mushrooms are the kind of food that you either love or hate, and I love them. In my opinion, they are best when sauted, like in today’s Mushroom Swiss Sandwich Melts with Arugula recipe!
