Breakfast might be my favorite meal of the day. The eggs, the bacon, the raisin toast, the biscuits, the bagels, the English muffins, the croissants–it’s all just so good. Can you tell I have a bread problem? Besides the eggs, bread might be what I like the most about breakfast. But when fitness goals are … Continue reading Sweet Potato Toast
Meatless in May has me all kinds of creative in the kitchen. So far all the recipes I’ve tried have been a hit. And tonight’s didn’t fail me. I used the meatball recipe from Blue Bird & Blackberries as my base and made a few changes of my own. Honestly, I wasn’t so sure about … Continue reading BBQ Pecan & Parm Meatballs (Vegetarian)
I am a huge lover of cauliflower. I could eat it everyday. I discovered my love for cauliflower at an Indian restaurant. I was on the Daniel fast and I wanted something flavorful but I wasn’t sure what. I explained to the waiter that I wanted something that tasted really good but it couldn’t have … Continue reading Sweet & Spicy Cauliflower Wings
Just as we were nearing the end of April a friend of mine challenged me to go meatless for the month of May. Because I’m still trying to kick my pregnancy weight, I figured it would be a good idea to join her. In preparation for #MeatlessInMay, she posted zucchini fritters on her Snapchat. They … Continue reading Broccoli Fritters
One day my husband came home with a sack of avocados. And by sack, I legit mean sack. He put them on the counter and said, “I know how much you love avocado.” He was right. I do love avocado–so much. But all you avocado lovers know that it’s a tough life dealing with avocados. … Continue reading Vegan Avocado Cinnamon Muffins

Today I have a brand new recipe … Continue reading Gluten Free Sweet Potato Bread
Carrots are my favorite vegetable. I loved eating them as a kid and still love them now. I used to think carrots helped your eyes, but it turns out that may not be the case. Or maybe I just never ate enough because I’m blind as a bat. Anyway, when I cook carrots I typically … Continue reading Carrot Gnocchi
So the Lent season is upon us, and it’s that time to go totally vegan…totally gluten free…totally wine-less. I might be getting sadder and sadder as I continue to type this. I kid. I kid. I am like a pro at this (sort of). My first experiment this season was meatless enchiladas. I was craving … Continue reading Meatless Enchiladas
When I’m ditching meat I always turn to meatier veggies so I’m not feeling deprived. Otherwise I’ll be cruising in the drive thru for a Whopper with cheese, no pickles, no onions and a large cherry icee because if I’m going to break the fast I’m going all the way. To avoid that, I cook … Continue reading Eggplant No Parmesan
I’ve never really been a very huge fan of chili, but my husband enjoys it very much. And I make it my business to make sure I can do anything he likes extremely well. Each year during the Lent season we participate in a fast at our church which is basically a reset for us … Continue reading RC’s Sweet Potato Chili
