Garden Fresh Kale Salad

February 9, 2018 by Ariel 2 Comments


Happy February, everyone!! It’s hard to believe that January has already come and gone… I have a feeling that 2018 is going to go by even quicker than 2017 did. Yikes.
But in happier news, I have a yummy recipe to keep you fueled during these cold winter days. This Garden Fresh Kale Salad is chock full of nutrients, and takes mere minutes to make. Let’s dive in!

The ingredients required are basic, and can also be switched up as desired. You could use a yellow or orange pepper instead of a red one, add some tomato, a handful of sunflower or hemp seeds, or just about any other favorite veggie or topping. The key to this salad is to keep it simple, nutritious, and delicious. (Now if only everything else in life were that easy…) …

Best Vegan Cornbread

January 14, 2018 by Ariel Leave a Comment


Happy January, everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful holiday season with your family! I know, I’m a little late… After traveling all over the country for 3 weeks, I’m finally getting back into the swing of things. But I have a yummy recipe to start your year off that is more than worth the wait.

One word: Cornbread. But not just any cornbread! This is definitely the BEST cornbread I have ever had – vegan or otherwise.

If you’re used to cornbread that is dry and crumbly, I’d like to introduce you to a whole new world of yumminess. This vegan cornbread is unbelievably moist, fluffy, and tender. And I promise you will never miss the dairy. It really is the BEST vegan cornbread….

Quinoa Tofu Breakfast Scramble

September 7, 2017 by Ariel Leave a Comment


Allow me to introduce my latest food obsession: Quinoa.

Yes, it’s yummy. But the best part? There are 8 grams of protein in each cup! Plus, it is a complete protein, which means that it includes all of the nine essential amino acids the body needs. That is just the kind of food that I want to be including in my diet! So I set out to discover different ways to work it into our meals….

Easy Canned Peaches

August 18, 2017 by Ariel Leave a Comment


It’s peach season you guys!! And I’ve been up to my eyeballs in them all week. 😉  Next year, will someone please remind me that 3 bushels it too many to can singlehandedly? But aside from the sticky mess in the kitchen, I’ll be so thankful for them come winter time.

I decided to step away from my typical recipe post, to do a DIY post for canned peaches! It really is simple, and I know you will love it just as much as I do (maybe more, if you actually have air conditioning in your house… but I digress)….

Creamy Vegan Potato Salad

I hope you’re all enjoying the long, warm summer days. Those of us in the northern half of the States certainly are (I’m in denial that snow is only a few months away). I love summer foods – salads, burgers, and cold, sweet treats. So I’m back this week to share another favorite with you! Four words: Creamy Vegan Potato Salad….

Red Leaf Lettuce Salad with Poppyseed Dressing

July 18, 2017 by Ariel Leave a Comment


For as long as I can remember, this Red Leaf Lettuce Salad has been a staple at all of our major family events and get-togethers. Thanksgiving, Christmas, birthdays… You name it – we always requested it. 😉 In fact, we still request it. Somehow, it always tastes best when mom makes it, and I have a feeling it’s due to the extra measure of love she mixes in….

Best Creamy Sunflower Butter

July 11, 2017 by Ariel 4 Comments


I’ve been seeing a variety of yummy homemade nut butters recently. Since my husband is allergic to nuts, I decided to give homemade sunflower butter a try. Huge win, you guys. This stuff is thebomb.com. Seriously.

I thought my husband was going to eat the entire jar tonight in one sitting, and my one-year old was eating it by the handfuls (or trying to…). …
