Plant-Based Deliciousness
This is one of my absolute favorite summer pastas! It’s best served cold which I especially love since we are currently right in the middle of the hottest part of summer. Perfect as a quick and easy weeknight dinner or a make-ahead dish for a […]
Sometimes the simplest dishes are the best! This okra is delicious as a simple side dish or appetizer and, aside from the flavor brought out by roasting, what makes it so great is: This okra is baked; not fried and when it’s finished roasting, there […]
Remember how I was all, “Summer’s coming!” in my last post? Well, I may have been prematurely excited because it’s still cold but that is not stopping me from looking ahead to summertime and all the classic picnic and potluck favorites we love, including these […]
It’s actually, finally, maybe, beginning to feel like summer could be is on it’s way here – eventually. We’re in that awkward in-between time where people truly don’t know how to dress. Just the other day, I was in a short sleeve top, jeans, and […]

At last, it feels like summer is on its way! We’re celebrating these early days of summer with one of our seasonal favorites – BBQ… And we’re doing it vegan style! Temperatures are hitting the 80s, I’m wearing shorts almost daily, and we’re on our […]

To me, coleslaw is a perfect addition to any summertime cookout and was delicious paired with our BBQ Baked Beans last week. What I like about this one is that the cabbage retains just the right amount of crunch and flavor because it’s not drenched […]
I have used this recipe for baked beans every summer for the last several years. Okay, not this *exact* recipe; the previous one included meat. We’ve now had this vegetarian version twice and, as always, it’s delicious! 2 (15 oz.) cans baked beans 1/2c brown […]
