Fall is getting closer because spaghetti squashes are showing up in the stores. I pretty much like all squash, but these are one of my favorites just for the fun factor. I grabbed this cute little organic one over the weekend. And it inspired this new cheddar hemp sauce for a cheesy noodle squash bowl. […]
Fiery Red Pepper Dressing
TGIF! So happy the weekend is finally here and we’re getting ready to sneak out for dinner even though this little guy would like us to stay parked on the couch! I had another vegan dilemma last night, I wanted to go to the farmer’s market, but had plenty of veggies to eat in our […]
Red Pepper Stir Fry Sauce
Very happy the weekend is here and we’re not getting short-changed an hour for this one! After a draining week, I have a long list of things I want to catch up on today from finally doing my hair roots, garden work, laundry, and updating music play lists. I did finally make it to Costco […]
Smokey Avocado Dip
It’s been a busy and draining week so far, much going on at work and being on call for work this week. Our poor pets have been a little bored with me, I’m pretty sure Miko has been giving me the stink eye most of the week for falling behind on our toy-throwing schedule. I […]
Avocado Nacho Salad Dressing
It’s still freezing here, I had to hurdle a couple of ice patches during last night’s run. And it was a refreshing and invigorating run, I didn’t sweat and felt great after. But I may need to look into slightly warmer running pants! Tonight I hit the home gym while watching Vegucated, an interesting documentary […]
Nacho Almond Spread
I’m feeling better this week, a little more relaxed. It’s hard not to looking at these lazy little butts toasting in front of the fireplace. So content and relaxed. Wish I could take them to work, Miko would play all day taking the occasional break to mark co-workers cubes and Leela would snarl at anyone […]
Creamy Red Pepper Dressing
Very true this week and soooooo glad the weekend is almost here followed by a short work week for Thanksgiving – woohoo! I’m not the only one a little cranky this week, Leela was not thrilled about sharing her fireplace bed with Smokey. She looked at the bed and me and pouted for awhile before […]
Tempeh Stuffed Pepper
Tempeh is my current favorite post-workout dinner. Especially after another intense 3 mile run pushing my pace and incline. I’m usually craving protein and and something hearty after a serious sweat session. But not something hot in our extreme, triple-digit heat this week! Tonight I decided to use tempeh in a quick, semi-raw stuffed pepper […]
Fiery Red Pepper Hummus
Right when I started working on this post last night, our entire neighborhood lost power. And we didn’t get it back for a few hours, right before I went to bed. And it sucked! When I lived in Florida, loosing power was a regular occurrence, nothing like being without AC in 100% humidity! But it […]
Mexican Quinoa Salad
After another long day at work, I got to decompress watching this little maniac race around the house with his over-sized cow toy flopping around. And that toy gets heavy when it’s saturated with dog slobber, I know because he likes to do flying leaps onto my back with it while I’m doing plank exercises. […]
