Before we do anything else, can I just say that I love pasta? And garlic? And zucchini? Phew! Now that I’ve gotten that off of my chest, we can move on to more serious topics. A little over a year ago, I posted a recipe for vegan alfredo sauce. It was delightfully delicious, but a…
Tangy Black Bean Soup
Sometimes ya just need a big ol’ bowl of soup. Today is one of those days. It’s been raining for hours, and I love it. Unlike usual Tennessee summers, ours has been a very dry one. I think our last good rain was over a week ago. (In case you’re wondering, that isn’t very much…
Vegan Walnut Burgers
It’s been way too long since I’ve posted a recipe. But I have an excuse: I’ve been getting quite large, ya’all. At 34 weeks preggo, nesting mode is in full swing. That means I’ve been cleaning, organizing, planning, and pretty much putting the rest of my life on hold–including making and photographing new recipes,…

I always feel bad when a non-vegan tastes vegan “cheese” for the first time. Like, how can this stuff be…

Black Bean Burrito Bowl
It’s been a very good day. My parents are visiting all the way from Maine for the weekend, and little M couldn’t be happier to have even more attention than usual. Probably little M’s greatest joy is that Grandma and Grandpa found a steal of a deal at some liquidation store and found a Melissa…
Weekly Vegan Lunch Ideas: 3/31/14 – 4/4/14
Hi Friends! I’ve had so much fun trying out some new vegan recipes this week. Some of you may find that some of these recipes work better as dinner options for you, rather than lunch, and that’s okay. I tend to eat a hefty lunch and a lighter dinner, just because I’ve found that I…
