This smoked tofu vegan BLT is on regular rotation at my house! It is one of my favorite ways to use my smoked tofu recipe; I think we have it every time I pull out the smoker!
This dish is hardly a recipe because a quality smoked tofu is all you need to make vegan bacon. Just thin slice it and pan fry in some oil. Your house will smell heavenly! Continue reading

A simple wrap is just about the easiest dinner that you could possible make, and that’s only one of the reasons that I love making them for dinner. They can also be made an endless variety of ways, like these crunchy buffalo tempeh wraps!
This is not my first wrap on the blog with tempeh. (Check out this Korean BBQ Wrap recipe.) Tempeh is a great plant-based protein source that takes well to many flavors, adding to the variations on wraps that you can make! Continue reading

Has everyone had a great summer full of grilling? I grill out every Sunday night. This week, I made a grilled eggplant and herb wrap that is loaded with fresh flavor!
Are you a fan of eggplant? It can be bitter, and salting the eggplant helps to remove those bitter flavors. Also, the fresher the eggplant, the less bitter.
Some people are sensitive to eggplants bitterness, and others not. Therefore, this may be a step you can skip if you don’t notice the bitter flavor of eggplant. Continue reading
Have you tried Korean BBQ, or gochujang sauce yet? In these Korean BBQ tempeh wraps, the spicy gochujang is balanced by cool cucumber and creamy mayo.
Gochujang sauce is spicy, which is one reason I love it. If you (or a member of your family) don’t like spicy, try using regular BBQ sauce in the skillet and personalize each wrap with spicy Korean or sweet American BBQ sauce. Continue reading

I have done it again. All things gyro! This time, I made gyro tofu sliders with tzatziki slaw. The tofu was pan fried so it was nice and crispy on the outside, just the way I like it!
The first time I tried this recipe, I was using up leftovers from the fridge. I had just made my favorite gyro recipe, these tempeh gyro tacos, and I was inspired to try the marinade with some leftover tofu. Continue reading
This summer, time has not been on my side. I always seem to have less than I need (or want) to get things done. I have been eating these easy hummus and pickled pepper wraps for lunches because I can literally make them in 2 minutes.
So, a little news for you all. I have taken a new job! I don’t talk much about my “real” work here because that’s not what this space is about. The prep for the upcoming semester has kept me from this space, and I apologize for that. Continue reading

One of my favorite food items during winter is sprouts! They are easy to grow on your own when there isn’t much available for fresh, local produce. I recommend using sprouts in sandwiches and wraps, like this smoked tofu and sprouts sandwich!
Someday soon I will be putting together a post on how to grow your own sprouts at home. It is so easy, anyone can do it. It does take 5-7 days before you can harvest, but the wait is totally worth it! Continue reading

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
