the plant-based food blog
I’ve found myself with a little downtime (hallelujah), so I’ve been putting quite a bit of blood, sweat, and tears into the blog.
So I did some thinking about what I could focus on during this time off, and I really think you’re going to like the outcome of this feverish pondering…Read More
Happy Monday, friends!
You can tell that I’m on the sushi train. I hadn’t had sushi for a reeeeeally long time, so when Mark and I decided to make our way to a sushi restaurant by us a couple of weeks ago for dinner, I was beyond thrilled. Since it was a Sunday, they were running a special: all sushi was $1.50 – $3.50 per roll.
Needless to say, we were stoked. Saving some money on an otherwise pretty dang expensive dinner date? The best.
So, of course, we went all-out. Mark and I ended up two different rolls each so we could take some home for later. Because, let’s be serious, late night sushi is never a bad idea.Read More
Happy Monday, friends! It’s a beautiful day, isn’t it?!
It’s beautiful because it is April. And I’m super excited about this month because it’s the month of Mark’s and my 1 year anniversary! A lot has happened this year: we moved in together, we got a kitten, we ate copious amounts of Mexican food. But even after a year, some of my favorite nights with Mark are our Date Nights In. We’ll cook an awesome meal, get the wine flowin’, and create a cute little picnic in our apartment by the windows.
We’re naturally introverted and the let’s stay inside in our comfy clothes so we don’t have to talk to anyone type, so these Date Nights In are seriously perfect. And getting to spend them with my guy doesn’t hurt either. ?Read More
I’ve said it once, and I’ll say it again: pretty food tastes better.
It’s true when it comes to breakfasts. It’s [extremely] true when it comes to desserts. And it’s true when it comes to dinner.
And it doesn’t get much prettier than a dinner featuring purple cauliflower.Read More
While I guess you could call me a ‘foodie,’ there are so many health-food phenomenons that I have yet to try.
Those beautiful smoothie bowls that look impossibly perfect and blow up Instagram every morning? Never had one.
Artsy avocado toast for breakfast? No avo-toast for me.
Kimchi, cacao nibs, or tempeh? Nope, nada, and nein.

Do you have any recipe staples?
Like ones that, if you show up to a party without it, then you’ll definitely hear about it? Ones that are your absolute go-to when you need a recipe you know you can count on?Read More
Guys, the struggle is real. I don’t know what it is about winter, but something about it just makes me want to curl up in a ball go to sleep.
So while I’m usually super excited to jump into the kitchen to whip up a delicious meal after a long day at work, lately I’ve been a huuuuge fan of quick and easy meals.

My fabulous friends over at DeLallo sent me product to use in this recipe today. We’re using their Gluten Free Corn/Rice Spaghetti for this recipe!
It didn’t matter where we went out to eat when I was younger; I was the one ordering the fettuccini alfredo.
If it was on the menu, my eyes wouldn’t even see the rest of the options – I developed a sort of tunnel-vision for my all-time favorite grub. A pile of perfectly al dente pasta smothered in a creamy, dreamy, buttery, cheesy white sauce?
*Channeling my inner-Chandler Bing* Could there BE a more delicious dinner option?!Read More
