Plant-based recipes for a deliciously healthy life
Hey babes, So, if your kids are like mine, they sometimes prefer the delicious, scientifically-calibrated choices from chain restaurants over yours. If I can ever get my kids to say “wow, that tastes like (insert restaurant here),” I count that as a win. One of the places my children love the most (thanks, coparent) is […]
Hey babes, So, in case you find this surprising, let me fill you in on a secret about some portions of Texas, particularly mine: it gets cold as the lowest ring of Hell in the winter. Get that famous Texas wind whipping 5 degree temperatures across the plains, and we’re all wrapped in Carharts and […]
Hey babes! So, here’s a dirty little secret: my parents didn’t teach me how to cook. And don’t think that’s a discredit to my parents, because it’s certainly not. They taught me cleaning, hunting, auto-repair, carpentry, roofing, plumbing, first aid, sewing, and countless other skills I use every day (okay, maybe not the hunting). But […]

Hey babes, If you exist in the same timeline that I do, then we are both celebrating Saint Patrick’s Day today. As luck would have it, we’re also experiencing a cold snap in my part of the world, so fate appears to have aligned for this recipe. As I’m sure you know, St. Patrick’s Day […]
Hey babes, Quick, what’s your favorite pizza sauce? If you said anything other than tomato marinara, you are free to leave. Just kidding! I love a white sauce, or a pesto, or even a buffalo. But when I think pizza, I think of spicy, delicious tomato sauce. Equally important, what do you dip your pizza […]
Hey babes! So, is there anything that you find yourself truly aghast to hear other people don’t like? I’m sure for most people it’s some beloved comfort food or junk food. Pizza, tacos, chocolate. And all of those are great! I regularly make vegan pizzas and tacos. But for me, it’s mushrooms. When I was […]
Hi babes, I'm Monica, the girl behind the curtain of Whole Food Plant Babe. My deep love of food and flavor couldn't be deterred by health concerns, so I sought to make WFPB recipes even tastier than their meat and dairy predecessors so I could have a long, happy, sexy, healthy life.
