Trail Mix Breakfast Cookie
These cookies are low in sugar and make a great treat for breakfast or anytime of the day! I am not a big fan of protein bars and this cookie is my go-to snack I pack when I am on the go..instead of unhealthy “bars”. This cookie is packed with nuts and seeds and is […]
Vegan “Crab” Cakes
Lion’s mane mushrooms make an amazing substitute for crab and lobster. When combined with spices & seasoning from this recipe, the texture of these mushrooms make for a very similar vegan version of a traditional crab cake. It’s worth noting that although these mushrooms look a bit strange and might resemble a brain, there are […]
Vegan Poke
I love serving this vegan poke and wowing my guests by replacing fish with watermelon. It is so deliciously unexpected and makes for a beautiful presentation without fish. I personally like to serve my poke bowl with rice but you could also replace the rice with greens or cauliflower rice for a low carb (and […]
Lentil Soup
This is a good basic that is on repeat in my house and is loved by young children and adults! It is one of those dishes that appeals to everyone; the right balance of spice and savory lentils & vegetables. I like to serve this soup with gluten-free sour dough bread and vegan butter. This […]
Baked Stuffed Spaghetti Squash
Spaghetti squash is a low carb and low calorie alternative to pasta that is grain-free, gluten-free and a healthy alternative when you want to eat something that tastes good but without the guilt. Baking and stuffing the squash with sautéed vegetables, sauce and vegan cheese makes the squash so flavorful that you won’t miss the […]
Cheesy Kale Chips
You can find store-bought kale chips in many grocery stores but honestly, I’ve never tasted one that remotely compares to this homemade recipe. My kids love these and so do I. Totally worthwhile to make your own kale chips versus eating store bought and just a warning..these are addictive!! Ingredients 1 large bunch of kale […]
Cauliflower Buffalo Wings
These buffalo cauliflower wings are the bomb and just as crunchy, savory, spicy and delicious as their unhealthy replacement. I am all for enjoying life and moderation but chicken wings are almost all skin and fat and then fried… they are not good for you. Sorry to rain on your parade if you are a […]
Steph’s Grain-free Tabbouleh
This grain-free and raw tabbouleh is packed with flavor and pairs nicely with stuffed grape leaves, hummus, vegan feta, olives and pita bread (or Siete grain-free tortilla chips). My version of tabbouleh is light and fresh and the texture of the riced cauliflower is very similar to bulgur wheat; but without the gluten and calories. […]
New Year Same Me
As we close out January, I’m sure many people are realizing that their New Year’s resolutions are practically unattainable. Through my experience of life as well as examining my peers, family, and friends I see a pattern every year when the new year rolls around. We all say to ourselves, this will be my year […]
Kick It!
Well…2022 is certainly off to a banging start. I don’t know about you, but literally everyone I know has gotten COVID the past few weeks. It is just sweeping through the population at record speed. Fortunately, it is nothing more than a cold/flu for most people and I’ve got to admit, I have had worse […]
