I’ve written about my love for soup before. In my opinion, it’s one of the most versatile and easiest meals to make that happens to be filling and healthy, depending on the ingredients. Right now, it is freezing on the east coast and that weather just calls for curling up with a warm blanket and… Continue reading MY GO-TO VEGETABLE SOUP

CHERRY GINGER BREAKFAST GRANOLA
Breakfast is always my most challenging meal. My rational mind tells me that eating a healthy and filling breakfast will support me and my body throughout the day. I then get wrapped up in whatever I have going on and suddenly its 2pm and I haven’t eaten all day! This constant cycle of waking up… Continue reading CHERRY GINGER BREAKFAST GRANOLA
LENTIL BOLOGNESE
Pasta of any kind is my comfort food. I enjoy it plain, with pesto, with sauce, covered in vegan cheese; it can honestly be prepared however. Something about just plain carbs is so satisfying and filling for me. Protein can be a bit more difficult for me as a plant based eater since I always… Continue reading LENTIL BOLOGNESE
TOFU SCRAMBLE
I had the pleasure of learning about Ayurvedic medicine during my teacher training from the Kripalu Dean of Ayurveda, Erin Casperson. Ayurveda deals with diagnosing and treating the body as a whole based on an individual’s personal balance of three different dosha type: Pita, Vata, and Kafa. Here is a great article breaking those down… Continue reading TOFU SCRAMBLE
EASY BEANS AND GREENS
I used to work at a restaurant that sourced all of their ingredients from local farms and suppliers. The menu changed daily based on the produce that the chef would receive every morning, meaning I got to sample a variety of fresh and genuine Italian fusion dishes. It was probably one of my favorite jobs… Continue reading EASY BEANS AND GREENS
VEGAN ALMOND AND RASPBERRY SHORTBREAD JAM COOKIES
Another cookie recipe! I am not a huge dessert fiend now, I used to be much more so when I was younger. But I am sucker for shortbread. Something about the simplicity, the buttery texture, and the versatility that shortbread offers is just so perfect to me. Historically, all my favorite holiday cookies have a… Continue reading VEGAN ALMOND AND RASPBERRY SHORTBREAD JAM COOKIES
VEGAN DARK CHOCOLATE COCONUT MACAROONS
When I first began to venture into the kitchen and cook my own dishes for the first time, baking was my initial love. I love anything that gives me clear, precise instructions and a guaranteed sugary outcome. However, as I began more passionate about intuitive eating and adopting a plant-based diet, I found myself gravitating… Continue reading VEGAN DARK CHOCOLATE COCONUT MACAROONS
ROASTED VEGETABLES WITH HARISSA CASHEW CREAM
Lately, I’ve been in a bit of a healthy funk. Maybe it’s the holidays or the weather finally getting cold, but all my motivation for healthy, clean meals is out the door. I would much rather spend my time baking Christmas cookies and watching reruns of the Great British Baking Show. Which is perfectly fine.… Continue reading ROASTED VEGETABLES WITH HARISSA CASHEW CREAM
IMMUNE BOOSTING VEGETABLE SOUP
I love soup. It’s almost embarrassing the amount of time that I dedicate to thinking about, talking, and consuming soup. In my last conversation with my mother, I spent nearly 20 minutes excitedly jabbering about how it was finally soup season. To me, soup is the ultimate meal because it is versatile, usually easy to… Continue reading IMMUNE BOOSTING VEGETABLE SOUP
