Lentil Swiss Chard Stew In case you didn't know, I LOVE lentils! This stew really shows them off - green lentils get to hang with the 'trinity' (carrot, celery and onion), tomatoes, swiss chard, cumin and warming spices. The stock is extra special because it blends sunflower seeds for a creamy twist. *Vegan, gluten free, nut free

My fav smoothie combo is this: roasted beets, carrots, strawberries, kale and orange - so I thought I'd turn that beloved breaky into a salad, and it's equally amazing. Orange infused quinoa, kale, shallots, carrots, strawberries, roasted beets and sweet potatoes and the mm tofu feta. Topped with a pomegranate/orange vinaigrette and sliced almonds. *Vegan, gluten free, contains nuts (but…
The beginning of dreary Fall weather has inspired me to create a traditional minestrone - carrots, zucchini, green beans, kidney beans and spinach stewing in a tomato broth - warm up your belly and your soul. I can't wait to dig into this one with a side of sourdough....drool. *Vegan, nut free, gluten free, not ideal for the freezer
A lifetime of hating all protein powders led me to creating my own, and let me tell you - it's great! Perfect for smoothies, but also a great thicker for soups, sauces and dressings. I've also been known to just sprinkle this mixture on salads. In other words - super versatile. Harnessing the power of protein in plants with none…
Kale and carrots are layered with Moroccan spice roasted sweet potato, cauliflower and chickpeas. This salad is dressed with our pomegranate and orange vinaigrette and an awesome salad topper which includes almonds, pistachios, pumpkin seeds, hemp hearts and dates. On our first date, I made the mm man Moroccan, so this is my tribute to him for ALL of his…
Crunchy crunchy: napa cabbage, green cabbage, bok choy, snap peas, radish, green onions, cucumber, and edamame topped with a peanut butter dressing and a side of peanuts. BONUS: This salad pulls double duty. Give it a quick sauté (a drizzle of sesame or peanut oil would be nice, but use what you have) and serve over rice - viola dinner!…
Mini potatoes, green beans, red onion, corn, tomatoes, olives, arugula, greens and a white bean/artichoke "tuna" inspired smash. It's topped with an olive and caper vinaigrette that I could drink :) Its non-traditional and delicious! *Vegan, gluten free, nut free
Fingers crossed we all remain incredibly healthy this Fall - but you know how it goes; sooner or later we all get a touch of the "under the weathers." Momma's calling for the No-Chicken Noodle Soup! Carrots, celery, onion, red peppers, spinach and rice noodles. The real gem of this soup though is the broth. Here's what we do...our regular…
This is one my kids LOVE. Broccoli, cauliflower, carrot, potatoes and celery are blended with cashew milk for a velvety texture. My dear vegan friend nutritional yeast is used to create that signature cheesy flavour. You will not miss the cheese in this one! *Vegan, gluten free, contains nuts
