These vegan biscuit breakfast sandwiches are really something else, every bit as tasty and satisfying as the ones we grew up with but these contain no class 1 carcinogens! If only that were the norm. Compared to the standard bacon, egg and cheese biscuits, these have more protein, 4 times the amount of fiber and…
Soy Curl Shawarma Wrap
This soy curl shawarma wrap is exactly what you want! Exactly what you need! As grateful as I am for the late-night quick vegan option just up the street (the falafel wrap from Shawarma King), it’s not wise to eat deep fried food often and this wrap definitely hits all the same notes while being…
Gut Health Vegan Queso and Cassava Tortillas (oil free!)
(Nachos pictured with the gut health queso and crumbled fried lentil loaf. The best!) I loaded up this gut health forward vegan queso with prebiotics, namely resistant starch. Resistant starch isn’t digested in the small intestine so it makes it all the way to the large intestine where it’s then fermented, feeding our good bacteria…
Absolutely Perfect Lentil Loaf
I knew right away, while eating a slice of this lentil loaf for the first time, that it’d be a new staple for us, one of those things that you make a new batch of as soon as you finish the leftovers. That has been the case and then some, I had no idea just…
Black Cherry Kombucha Margaritas
These black cherry kombucha margaritas perfectly bring what is typically a very summery drink into colder weather, where you appreciate warming spices and darker flavors, while still being obviously a margarita. The kombucha and lemon give it all the effervescence and sour notes of the margaritas we’re all familiar with and are the perfect contrast…
Instant Pot Mushroom Wild Rice Soup with Tofu
This soup is a new favorite around here. I first made it to bring in a thermos on a day out hiking and it was, undeniably, the perfect thing for the occasion, providing the warmth and comfort you’re lacking in a Wisconsin late October. I’ve always been haevy into this style of creamy soups, but…
Walnut Chorizo Tacos
These are the be-all and end-all of plant based tacos in my opinion. I absolutely love them, and love every part (even including making them). Believe me when I say this recipe is special, and on some level I knew that it was before even tasting the finished product. When the taco filling was roasting…
White Bean Chili with Soy Curls
I made a close version of this our first fall in Milwaukee, 8 years ago, and have made it every year since. Burton eats soup for lunch every week in colder months so this white bean chili, our favorite, sees pretty constant rotation from October to April. It’s much lighter than your standard chili, making…
Vegan Tomato Basil Bisque
It’s funny how in June, temperatures in the 70s mean shorts and swimming but in September they mean soup. And with tomatoes and basil both being at their peak right now, there’s no better time to make this vegan tomato basil bisque. This is one of my very favorite recipes, it’s so simple and satisfying….
Zucchini Involtini with Tofu Ricotta
Zucchinis are likely the most productive annual vegetable in your standard garden. I know a lot of people, myself included, have gone from “oh, great! a zucchini!” when seeing another is ready to harvest to “oh, great…a zucchini…”. This zucchini involtini with tofu ricotta might help bring that long lost excitement back into your zucchini game….
The Creamiest Vegan Mac and Cheese
When I say that this is the best vegan mac and cheese recipe there is, you can really take my word for it. Over the last 8 years I’ve made every variation of vegan mac and cheese under the sun, with the base ranging from butternut squash to cauliflower, sweet potatoes to gluttonous rice flour,…
Cashew Caesar with Smokey Tempeh Crumble and Hemp Parm
This salad has been seriously hitting the spot, maybe all the spots, for a while around here and the dressing has been in our rotation (jk it completely became the rotation) for over a year. It never fails and is somehow always what I want, always just the amount of effort I’m willing to put…
