Hey, Friday is almost here! And we’re still chugging along with our house guest this week – my dad’s 15-year-old husky mix. She’s an absolute sweetie, but she can eat! She’s decided she’d rather have our dog’s dinner than her own special food, so I spend dinner time blocking her from the other dog’s bowls […]
Eggplant Hemp Hummus
We’re babysitting my dad’s senior husky mix this week and enjoying her sweet personality. As for Leela… well, not so much. She’s still not warmed up to our house guest and maybe it has something to do with nearly having her dinner eaten every night. For our dinner, I tore into a new bag of […]
Chia Marinara Sauce
The last two days have been interesting with temps above 100 degrees here, we’ve been doing as much as we can indoors and trying not to melt! If this post seems a little off, I might be slightly delirious from the heat, sorry. But we get a break from it tomorrow and I’m looking forward […]
Sun Dried Tomato Pesto
Monday is almost over, whew! And happy Earth Day! Doing anything special to celebrate? Not me … besides being a vegan, driving an electric car, and composting. :-) Composting is an interesting adventure that can be messy and take up a lot of space, but LifeHacker posted a super easy method to create instant compost […]
Ginger Lentils & Quinoa
This post is slightly all over the place with odds and ends from the week, but that’s about where I am after a busy week. Thank goodness the weekend is here and I just booked a week long vacation for us in July, I already feel relaxed and can’t wait! Finding good vegan shoes for […]
Tomato Quinoa Stew
It’s almost Friday and I am ready! It’s been a busy week, except for the dogs. I can’t blame them, it rained most of today and I’d rather be balled up in a comfy couch blanket too. Instead I was craving a little comfort food for dinner after a busy work day. When I first […]
Creamy Lemon Dressing
After a fun and busy weekend, I wish I could stay home with these two this week! It hasn’t been easy to get back into work mode and healthy eating after the Easter weekend, especially with work stress and the massive amounts of leftover Easter candy people have been bringing into work. There are unopened […]
Vegan Broccoli Quinoa Soup
I’m very ready for this week to end. Excuse me while I whine about work for a minute because everyone is sick with some sort of flu again. Three people in our group were out either sick or caring for a sick kid and I spent the day juggling 14 things at once with constant […]
Savory Fennel Seed Dressing
I think Miko’s day was as crazy as mine, he stayed with my mom while I was at work and her cranky chihuahua who didn’t want to share the attention. And he got chased around by my two very active nieces. He was very ready for a little relaxing in hubby’s lap at the end […]
Super Food Cheesy Sauce
I’m a little sad that it’s Monday already, where did the weekend go? But it was a productive weekend, hubby sweetly sterilized the kitchen since we’re really good and making a mess of it. I got lots of laundry done and a little more decluttering which felt wonderful. And we relaxed with cuddly pets. I […]
