Chickpea Casserole

vegan chickpea casserole

Why hello delicious. I found this yummy recipe a while back over on VegWeb. I only had to make it once and I knew it would be a permanent friend of mine. It's creamy like a casserole should be and I just loooooove the chickpeas in it. My husband takes it to lunch quite often and has demanded more broccoli. I gotta say, that's a pretty cool thing to hear! I have made a few changes, but not many. It's a simple recipe too so that's a huge plus. I actually just cook my rice in a pot, rinse it … [Read more...]

Lentil Soup

I love soup all year 'round so don't be a hater and tell me it's not soup season! Spring is just as deserving of this deliciousness as the other seasons :) This has become my favorite soup too - I keep it stockpiled in the freezer just to make sure I always have some handy! It's simple, healthy, delicious and beautiful. Can't complain about any of that, right? I attempted to cut my carrots into heart shapes. I saw it on Pinterest and thought 'ohhhh I can do that!' Buuuuuut I forgot how … [Read more...]

Super Amazing Carrot Cake

vegan carrot cake + vegan icing recipe nomnomnom

Yes, it is SUPER amazing! Carrot cake is something I always ate when out and about, but never actually attempted to make myself. Holy crap have I been missing out!

Pretty sweet deal if you ask me :) So check out the recipe! I have also included the recipe I used for the icing which was pretty killer as well, … [Read more...]

Smoothie Talk!

Hi Friends! A while back, I made a post about green smoothies. They rock and you can have so much fun with them. You can add all different kinds of fruit and greens and juices to change the flavors. Well I am so excited! I went to Bed Bath & Beyond to check out their new Magic Bullets. I tried finding this new version online, but I can't find it anywhere, not even on Bed Bath & Beyond's website! But the blade is much better and they come with LIDS and STRAWS! WOOHOO! This is huge … [Read more...]

BB-A_zwCMAAZA7J

So that title is a bit much, I know! But I tried this recipe and really wanted to share it. My picture is not nearly as pretty as the ones over at Cheap and Simple Vegan, but it'll do! I had been meaning to make this recipe for quite some time, I just kept eating all the kale as chips! HA! I guess that's a good problem to have? So when I finally stop stuffing my face with super awesome kale chips, I made this awesome dish. I thought it was delicious, but I used a pan that wasn't friendly and my … [Read more...]
