Vegan Egg Rolls These vegan egg rolls were inspired by Derek.  Do you follow Derek Sarno on YouTube?  You can check out his channel here.  I stumbled on his channel a few weeks ago, and he makes amazing vegan food.  He now follows me on Instagram, so we are basically best friends now, he just doesn’t know it yet.  😂 He’s challenged me to go...

Chickpea Salad Is this a chickpea salad?  Or is it a chickpea spread?  Whatever you call it, it’s delicious! Eating veggies has always been my downfall.  Not going to lie, but I think because my parents overcooked veggies growing up (my mom still loves her fresh green beans boiled for 45 minutes) I never ate them growing up.  In fact, the only vegetables I ate...

Lentil Smash Burger Tacos Have you ever watched an Instagram or YouTube video recipe and immediately want to make it?  That’s what happened when I saw these lentil smash burger tacos from Tapped In Wellness on IG. While you know I love my beef, these lentil smash burger tacos will be on heavy rotation this summer.  Quick, easy, and if you have a blackstone these...

FlavCity Protein Smoothie I’ve tried so many protein powders over the years, but they all go through me so quickly, I may as well drink...

This tofu cabbage stir fry is going to go to the top of the list of things to make – pinky swear! It’s full of flavor and yes, I am eating vegetables!  My friend Morgan and I went to an Asian grocery store a week ago and I bought some Taiwanese cabbage.  It’s delicious! This recipe was made on my Instagram stories, and I just...

Next up on my sourdough adventure is this sourdough focaccia bread. Truth be told, until I met my Italian (well, he was half Italian half French Canadian, but never accepted the french part!), I had never heard of focaccia bread. My first attempt to make it was in 2010 – you can check out that post here.  Please ignore the awful food photography in that...

If you think you don’t like beets, try my roasted beet hummus – it’s the perfect balance of sweet and savory! Ingredients Needed for Beet Hummus fresh beets canned chickpeas garlic cloves tahini crushed red pepper vinegar (any will do!) I used rice wine vinegar for this recipe salt aquafaba – which is the liquid from the canned chickpeas – so don’t throw this out...
