School starts tomorrow. I’ve been going a bit crazy for the last month or so trying to get things done before school starts. Cleaning the house, cooking as much as possible, sleeping. Once school starts life is going to get a bit full. I won’t have a lot of time to do those things that…

Veggie Chips {Photos}
I’ve been working on making veggie chips for awhile. I still haven’t gotten it quite right so I’m not posting a recipe, but wanted to post these photos because they’re just so pretty. Steve got me a Benriner slicer for Christmas last year and every so often, in between work and school, I slice up…
Steve’s Pesto Pasta
So, this post is actually from last weekend. I started on it and another, but was so busy last weekend that I never had the opportunity to finish them. And I really wanted to share this post because it’s about Steve’s pesto, which was so delicious. So delicious. Last Sunday I got a special treat….
Green Lentil and Bulgur Wheat Salad
This weeks salad was once again a practice in cleaning out the refrigerator/pantry. I had a about half a bag of dried green lentils plus about 1/2 cup bulgur wheat in the cabinet, so I decided I would build my weekly salad out of these two items. Throw in the last bits of veggies left…
Almond Butter
As I was making my standard weekly batch of almond butter it occurred to me that I’ve never done a post about almond butter. I’ve mentioned that I make my own, but never shown you how. Well today’s your lucky day! Okay, maybe not your lucky day. But a good day, nonetheless.I love almond butter….
Sundays in my Kitchen
Sundays in my kitchen are pretty busy. I love to spend a large part of my day in the kitchen, playing. After a trip to the farmers’ market I like to clean out the fridge. This generally leads to figuring what I can do with all of the leftover produce from the week. And what…
Barley and Edamame Salad with Lemon Thyme Vinaigrette
Every weekend I make a salad to eat off of throughout the week. I gives me a chance to be creative in the kitchen, use up leftover produce and also gives me something healthy and fulfilling to eat for lunch during the week. The point of this post is not so much the recipe, but…
Curried Lentils
Lentils are an incredibly satisfying and nourishing food. They are also extremely versatile. You can add them to soups, use them for a vegan taco filling, make fritters out them and use them to help bind a veggie burger. You can also just make a simple pot of lentils and enjoy them over brown rice…
Basil Cashew Cream Pasta
Steve has been bringing home little gifts for me. Food gifts, like raw cashews. He knows I love ingredients to play with. The raw cashews have been especially welcome as I have been toying with the idea of trying cashew creams. Since switching to a plant-based diet nearly a year ago, I’ve become more and…
Baked Butternut Squash Fries with Rosemary and Sea Salt
You may not know this but, I’m a bit of a french fry junkie. And I have been for most of my life. I try to only enjoy them on occasion these days because unfortunately, they’re not very healthy. I’ve attempted to make baked ‘fries’ before, but they never really came out crispy enough (I…
