5-Minute Serrano Salsa

Hi babes! So as you’ve probably been able to tell from some of my previous recipes, your resident narrator loves spicy foods. I’m also lucky enough to live in an area with a lot of ethnic grocery stores, so I have the fortune of access to dozens of species of peppers, from the humble Jalapeno […]

Resources, The Why

Documentaries and Other Video Goodies

If you’re interested in learning more about the whole-food plant-based diet, veganism, the reasons for them, and the science behind them, believe that I am a ferocious hunter (of knowledge) and have done my best to compile all of the resource that I personally have watched, read, seen, and can confidently say are good resources […]

An Ode to Oatmeal

It seems to me that whenever people (and by people, I mean people that eat the standard American diet, or rather SAD) talk about eating breakfast on a whole food plant-based diet, or even a vegan diet, they always end up talking about oatmeal. Somehow this devolves into disparaging oatmeal for being bland or boring […]

I love the depth of the flavors, the soupy goodness, all of the surprising ingredients snuck in there. Just thinking about it makes me drool […]

Pasta

California “BLT” Pasta

Well folks, it happened again. I decided to try something new, and couldn’t find a recipe to satisfy my curiosity. What else is new? Shocking as this may be, I have not had a lot of experience with tempeh. The last time, prior to this week, that I attempted it, I was still a wee, […]

Spicy Mole-Chipotle Lentils

Ah, lentils. Tiny, cheap, delicious. Growing up, I had no experience with lentils. I think I had some vague idea that they were either the staple of hippy communes or old-world peasants, but in my small-town naivety I couldn’t be sure. Shame to my childishness. Lentils are actually considered one of humanity’s oldest food sources, […]

Soups, Stews, Etc

Blow-your-mind Curried Summer Squash Soup

Who says butternut should be the only soup squash? Summer squash is an unsung hero with a light taste that is complemented by a vibrant blend of spices to take it over the edge into holy s#!t status. Dear reader, I hear your objections all the way over here. “Hot soup in the summer? Pure […]
