Hey babes, Growing up, my mom made so many one-pot meals. Chili mac, Mexican casserole, chicken spaghetti, chicken and dumplings, enchiladas, tater tot casserole, cheeseburger pie, chicken pot pie, and many more.

Vegan Verde Pozole (GF, Oil-Free, Spicy!!)
Hola bebes! Now, I’m sure I’ve shown my hands a dozen or more times in my previous posts, but I love spicy flavors, and being Mexico adjacent, my heart belongs to the song of the many regional chile peppers and the dishes they inspire.

Three-Bean Chili
Happy New Year, babes! Hopefully 2021 isn’t the trash-fire that 2020 was for, oh, roughly the majority of humanity. I for one am determined to make the best of it, and to do everything I can to ensure my own health, wellness and success. That means working hard, eating plenty of whole, healthy plants, and […]
Acorn Squash & Mayocoba Bean Chili
Hey babes, As we all know if we get too close to a window, it is starting to get to that time of year where it is cold, unpleasant, dark, and the perfect excuse for soups, chilis, and wayyyy too much coffee. Or maybe that last one is just me? Anywho, chili! This is going […]
