Creamy Tomato Soup (vegan)
SOUP. I love soup. And I must add that this one is absolutely fabulous. First of all it’s comforting without being heavy and it’s a breeze to pull together. I’m talking 25 minutes tops with about 5 minutes hands on time. Throw some freshly sliced basil on top, serve with some crusty bread and a…
Read MoreCreamy Cauliflower Soup with Crispy Brussels Sprouts & Smokey Chickpeas
This soup is the best cauliflower creation I’ve had in a while. Bursting with flavor and texture this soup is fall in a bowl. It’s thick and remarkably creamy despite the lack of actual cream, which is always a good thing. While the cauliflower soup can hold it’s own, it’s the toppings that elevate each…
Read MoreBlack Bean, Corn, Sweet Potato Stuffed Bell Peppers
Salsa + chips + guacamole complete me. I have an obsession with Southwestern food and flavors. I love the flavor profiles of these foods so much that nearly every dish I create uses cumin, jalapenos, cilantro, and involves a hefty amount of avocado. Definitely no apologies there. With minimal effort, you can be pulling piping hot…

Curried Red Lentil Coconut Soup
I fully plan to have a pot of this warming soup in my fridge all season long. You’ve got the usual soup suspects in the form of lentils, peppers, and onion, but then there’s a hint of cinnamon, warmth from the jalapeno and ginger, and the smooth creaminess from the coconut milk.. It has dimension…

I have been indulging in this dish the last couple days! It’s so fresh and good. A few quick things about this recipe. First, it couldn’t be easier. Boil the quinoa, chop some fresh parsley, throw all the pesto ingredients in a blender, and then toss the everything together with some chopped walnuts. The whole…

This salad is a miracle. A mix of fresh spring vegetables; asparagus, peas, and green onions tossed in a simple lemon vinaigrette! This salad is literally bursting at the seams with fresh flavor and texture. (click HERE to watch me prepare this salad on Good Day Maine) It’s light, yet satisfying, and in addition it…

This bowl is a serious spring fling for your taste buds! For this dish, I kept things super basic, cooking the rice with nothing more than coconut milk, some veggie broth and a few green onions & garlic. The flavor is simple and clean in the best possible way, and it’s the ideal base for…
