It might sound dramatic, but making oatmeal mixes in bulk has changed my life recently and I have no idea how it took me so long to decide to start making them. Oatmeal has never been my go-to, but now that it’s so convenient I eat it almost every day and look really forward to…

First Week Vegan Meal Plan
***edited: I deleted the sweet potato wraps recipe because it’s just too much work to make lol, I don’t think anybody needs to do that. My absolutely perfect veggie burgers eaten as a wrap are a perfect replacement, and they’re so much easier to make and tastier. I’m too lazy to update the grocery list…
Instant Pot Chickpea Tikka Masala
This is an especially great recipe for showing vegan-curious omnivores and new vegans alike, as are most Indian recipes with the large population and long history of vegetarianism there. This instant pot chickpea tikka masala showcases how filling and satisfying beans can be, how luxurious a sauce or broth can be without dairy creams or…
Tofu Ricotta Stuffed Shells
These tofu ricotta stuffed shells are incredible! The preparation couldn’t be simpler, the ingredients are all easy to source and it makes a ton of food that reheats perfectly (maybe even better the second time around!). It doesn’t get much better than that, does it? I’ve been meaning to post this recipe for over…
Lentil Enchiladas
These are my favorite plant based enchiladas I’ve ever had, they’re the only ones I fuck with, and I’ve tried tons of variations. I think where most people mess up when making vegan Mexican food, and I’ve done it too, is having way too many components. With the standard enchiladas, the fillings are all pretty…
Buffalo Tofu Salad
This is one well balanced salad! For every creamy component, there’s a light one, where there’s heat, there’s the chipotle ranch dressing to provide cooling relief and for every smoothie bite there’s some crunch. It’s uncomplicated yet totally crave-worthy and something I’m always in the mood for. The chipotle ranch dressing is fast to whip…
Mushroom Barbacoa Burritos
If you follow me on insta, you know I’m completely obsessed with cassava flour tortillas. They’re a far better texture and stretch for burritos than standard wheat flour tortillas and are also nutty, slightly sweet and bitter and super beneficial to gut health. Getting them burrito sized takes a lot of skill and a little…
Spice Crusted Butternut Squash and Yogurt Sauce over Barley Salad
This is one of my all-time favorite things to make, especially for parties since it serves a ton of people and is good hot or cold (and every temperature in between). If you’ve eaten food at my house before, there’s a bigbig chance you’ve had this. It’s quick to make, stores and reheats well as…
Hashbrowns with Sauerkraut and Cashew Sour Cream
This has been on my to-post list since the beginning of Dear Guts. I just removed my previous cashew sour cream post from 6 years ago (cultured with apple cider vinegar cuz I was literally still a baby with lots to learn) because this one here is the one cashew sour cream recipe to rule…
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…
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…
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….
