VEGAN 15-MINUTES EASY GLUTEN-FREE 5 INGREDIENTS It's going to be a hot summer for a lot of us this year. Even here in the mountains at 7100 feet above sea level, we're all talking about it. So it's also going to be a summer of salads. I've already been playing with various salads recipes featuring fresh summer produce, but this Corn and Tomato Salad is my favorite so far. Well, ...
Asparagus Salad with Potatoes and Lentils in a Lemon Vinaigrette
A spring vegan asparagus salad, hearty enough for a meal, loaded with asparagus, potatoes, lentils, radishes, sugar snap peas, and mint - all dressed with a bright lemon vinaigrette. Spring wakes slowly here in the mountains. After relishing the explosion of spring for decades just outside San Francisco, I'm adjusting to a more tentative, gentle springing forth. I see four fuzzy buds one day on a bush when walking Paprika, and the next day another two gather up their nerve to join them. ...
Cauliflower Steaks + Lentil Salad
Sometimes I pick something new to try in my meal plan, and it's such an instant hit that I know I'll be making it forever. Or at least for a long time to come. That happened with this week's Cauliflower Steaks with Lemon Tahini Dressing, from the With Food and Love blog. I made some changes, because that's what I do (even with my OWN recipes). So I thought I'd share my take on this fabulous recipe. This post may contain affiliate links. I participate in various affiliate programs, ...
Vegetarian Meal Plan: #17 (Spring)
Here in the mountains, spring straddles both winter and what the rest of the world calls spring. That means we have beautiful days in the low 70's, and days like today. Days that spit slush from the skies and sudden wind gusts that sweep the summer furniture you probably put out too early across the deck. And my meal plan this week reflects this weather disparity. It's got comfy food for rainy days, and hearty salad bowls for what spring should be, if only in my head. Additionally, my ...
8 Sunday Brunch Dishes
Tips for making your next Sunday brunch easier, and ideas of what to serve. Six days a week at my house, breakfast is Siggi's dairy-free yogurt with a scoop of protein powder stirred into it. A cappuccino made with oat milk, courtesy of our Keurig, rounds out my little meal. In fact, this breakfast habit is so engrained, that Paprika, our labradoodle, carefully tracks my daily breakfast before whining for her walk. Well, full disclosure, this is true until she thinks I'm too slow ...
Oatmeal Rolls with Molasses
These Oatmeal Rolls are a favorite of mine. I've made them for at least 10 years, and now you need this recipe too. It's slightly modified from these Heavenly Oatmeal Molasses Rolls on Food52, and is a solid winner. In fact it won first prize for a dinner rolls contest. This is a yeasted bread, but I promise, it's easy. And I've got pictures for shaping the rolls. These rolls are slightly sweet from brown sugar and molasses, and sooooo soft. They're enriched with egg and milk - although, ...

Aglio e Olio Pizza | #BreadBakers
It's easy to be intimidated by making your own bread. Even flatbread. And even a yeasted flatbread like pizza. This Aglio e Olio Pizza is a simple pizza bread that can be torn up like garlic bread pieces. Use it alongside a meal, for sopping up sauces, or dipping into soups. Or use it as a sandwich bread in the way you'd use foccacia. But load up your pizza with lots of ingredients, if that's your preference. For example, I modeled this BBQ Chicken Pizza with Poblano Peppers and Pepitas ...
Vegan Sloppy Joe Sliders
We all have childhood favorite meals. All we need is a mention of the dish in conversation with a friend, or a wisp of its aroma. Suddenly we're whisked back to Nana's kitchen table, our legs swinging under the table, love and security wrapped around us like a soft blanket. Sloppy Joes are one of those for me. I didn't have them at home, to be honest. Unbelievable as it sounds, it was in the school cafeteria. Sloppy Joe day was my favorite day, and I would have gone back for seconds if I ...
Black Chana Masala {Black Chickpea Curry}
If you want a completely traditional chana masala, I warn you, this might not be what you're looking for. For starters, it's a Black Chana Masala. So, it uses black chickpeas, in place of the more familiar cream ones. But I also took a Mexican twist on it by adding slices of avocado, lime juice, and a squeeze of vegan sour cream. Oh, and I added roasted eggplant to the sauce to make it even meatier. Whaaat? Ok, let's start with the Black Chickpeas. What are Black ...
