Whole Roasted Cauliflower with Turmeric, Fennel Seed, & Dates

Whole Roasted Cauliflower with Turmeric, Fennel Seed, & Dates

Honestly, this doesn’t need a fancy intro. You like cauliflower, I like cauliflower. We’re all screaming for… CAULIFLOWER. But! This ain’t no any old cauliflower rice or cauliflower wings. This is a Whole Roasted Cauli baby (yes I refer to my vegetables as babies. Back off), with a pretty unique marinade. And I recommend starting …

Loaded “Egg” Sandwich feat. Green Chutney Aioli

Loaded “Egg” Sandwich feat. Green Chutney Aioli

No need for me to re-emphasize my love for JUST egg. It’s super versatile, delish, protein-packed and completely plant based!

Smashed Crispy Potatoes with Calabrian Chili Basil Pesto & Lemon “Cream”

Smashed Crispy Potatoes with Calabrian Chili Basil Pesto & Lemon “Cream”

I know taters get a bad rep and honestly, I don’t know why! Obviously, if we eat anything with high starch and carb content it’s not “good” for you, because those break down into sugars. But anything is moderation is good by me. Plus, I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again, being a …

Southwestern Butternut Squash Bisque

Southwestern Butternut Squash Bisque

Honestly, never been a huge soup person with a few exceptions – my Maa’s tomato soup with homemade croutons, pasta fagioli (cause I’m basically half Italian growing up in Shaolin), and Panera’s broccoli cheddar soup, until I found out it’s made with chicken stock and has enough fat and sodium for a months worth of …

You have no idea. I have been SEARCHING for a boxed cake mix that is palm oil free, FOREVER. You’re probably already aware of my obsession with cutting out palm oil from my diet (and attempting to get others to as well). I’ve cut out palm oil for 2+ years for environmental reasons. Don’t make …

Sweet Potato Burger Buns with Crispy Chick’n & Masala ‘Eggs’

Sweet Potato Burger Buns with Crispy Chick’n & Masala ‘Eggs’

I have a CARB-fession. I am in love with bread. You heard it here first. I am NEVER one to shy away from eating a full bread basket at an Italian restaurant, asking for more fresh pita at my favorite Lebanese joint or getting that bread burger bun instead of lettuce wrap for my veggie …
