Happy 2022!

These past few years have been… a lot. But I’m feeling hopeful for this new year.

I set some goals for myself (I do better with goals than with resolutions, which always seem so much more intense), and I’m really excited to pursue them.

Amongst the goals I set for myself, one was wanting to make an effort to try new dinner recipes this year. I get in dinner ruts a lot, and during those ruts, I tend to default to staples like rice, tofu/beans, and some sort of veggie.

It’s fast and filling, but after a week or two of the same thing over and over and over, it gets pretty boring.

So! In an effort to be more creative in the kitchen, I created THIS. And I don’t really know what to say about it other than it’s really really good.

What a mouth-full!

Oh, how I love pasta and creamy vegan cheese sauce and roasty toasty caramelized broccoli.

Especially this time of year!

Instant Pot Seitan Nuggets

I know. Ya girl was gone for a whole 8 months, and the first recipe she posts is for brown blobs.

But hear me out.

We’ve made this recipe… a lot in the past few months. Like, every week. Sometimes twice per week!

Chewy little protein-packed nuggets served alongside every and any dipping sauce we have in the house. Plus a veggie or two. It’s a great, filling meal.

Mark and I have been working out quite a bit lately, so I’ve been a little more conscious of my protein intake these days. If you split this recipe into thirds, each serving would have roughly 30g of plant-based protein. Perfect to fuel those mad gains!

Kale Brussels Sprout Salad with Maple Dijon Dressing

This is just a really good salad. Like…a really good salad.

Salads, I feel, kind of have a bad rap. They’re the thing you reach for when you’re “trying to be good.” They can be bland, pretty weak, and just not very exciting.

That’s not the kind of salad we’re talking about today, my friend.

14 Easy Recipes to Jazz Up Dried Pasta

I. Love. Pasta.

I love twirling it, spearing it, and scooping it.

I love it with creamy sauces, tossed in herby sauces, loaded with tomato sauce, and delicately mixed with oily sauces.

Pasta is one of those ingredients that I almost have too much of at all times – it’s always there for me at the end of a long day. A comforting carb friend, if you will.

And the fact I can get it from the pantry to the kitchen table (or, in all quarantine seriousness, to the couch) in under 30 minutes makes me love it that much more.

While I think we can all agree that pasta is incredible, what’s not incredible is eating the same red sauce from a jar 4x a week.

These are some of the easiest pasta recipes I have here on the blog so you could, if you wanted, eat pasta every day of the week…for two weeks.

Not saying that you should. But if you wanted to, you’ll be ready.

Let’s roll:
