Whew, what a long day! But a great day despite nonstop rain and 6 hours of driving. Details tomorrow since I have over 200 pictures to go through and too relaxed after a glass of wine to do so. In the meantime, how about a wonderful bacon tempeh recipe? I’ve always wanted to try Lightlife’s […]
Raw Feisty Mac
Rain, rain, and more rain sums up today. The sky looked like this most of the day. And the temp never reached 60, that’s a crime for the first day of June! I’m surprised my hair didn’t look like a big frizz ball at the end of the day. After getting drenched multiple times and […]
Mushroom Burgers Take One
I figured out why I never liked mushrooms growing up, it was more the texture than taste. Canned mushrooms were the worst, like eating slimy little slugs. As much as I like portabella mushroom burgers, I can only get through about halfway before the texture gets to me, which would explain why I adore mushrooms […]
Curried Lentil Stew
I’m getting so excited about our home office redo, I can’t wait to have more of a workspace. I ran by Home Depot and Lowes at lunch today looking for paint color ideas and fell in love with this Lime Mousse color for the walls. What do you think? Seems like it’ll be perfect with […]
My Lentil Obsession Continues
Hubby stopped by Target on the way home and picked up a new cat scratcher while loading up on the usuals. Problem is he only got one which Smokey parked her round bottom on and Shadow pouted while patiently waiting his turn. After 15 minutes of drama, he relocated Smokey so the poor guy could […]
Hemp Seed Alfredo
I just can’t get away from smoothies for breakfast, I’m addicted! They’re simple, nutrient dense and fast, perfect for my rushed work mornings. I keep thinking oatmeal, cereal, or something different would be nice on weekends to mix things up, but always end up going with a comforting, veggie packed smoothie. So I’ve been trying […]
Tempeh Miso Soup
Have I mentioned I’m ready to end this week? Yeah, today was another long and busy day at work. I woke up this morning with a wicked sinus headache, my head was throbbing with pain so bad that I almost called in sick. Thankfully it got better and I only have a minor headache now. […]
Chickpea Tofu Curry & CSN Giveaway!
Today’s weather was officially icky – cold, rainy and windy. And it may be followed by snow tomorrow and Saturday! That’s gonna add some complications to my 11 mile run this weekend! But I’m still looking forward to the weekend even if Saturday will be spent parked in front of the fireplace. It’s hard to […]
Vegan Sweet Potatoes and Sausage
I’m not gonna lie, I felt that bottle of wine this morning dragging myself out of bed. So that’s why you shouldn’t do that on weeknights! :-) But work wasn’t stressful and I made it though the day today sticking with a veggie loaded Vega breakfast smoothie and a monster salad for lunch with hemp […]
Balsamic Tempeh
One thing I do not miss since going vegan is cooking meat and what hassle that could be trying to cook it properly with one-pot meals while not under cooking it or drying it out. And you know how much I adore quick, vegan one-pot meals since most of my main recipes are exactly that. […]
