One of my most popular recipes on the website is the Cauliflower No Cheese Sauce and this Cauliflower Pasta Alfredo uses that as an inspiration. Instead of adding nutritional yeast and turmeric to make it an orange cheese color, this recipe uses potato and raw cashews instead to retain the light color of traditional Alfredo…

Cinco de Mayo is around the corner and fixing dinner doesn’t get much easier than this black bean tacos recipe. Especially, if you’ve just made a pot of fresh beans but you can use canned beans too. I like Eden Brand because they make their cans without the BPA lining. I usually keep several cans…

The sauce is also great for topping baked potatoes, yams or fries. I love these tacos topped with creamy avocado, chopped tomato, and…
Plant-Based, Vegan Sour Cream
How many healthy plant-based, vegan sour cream options do you see on the market these days? Practically none…. So I decided to make a simple and quick way to make one that will last in the fridge all week, using it in tacos, sandwiches, salad bowls, soups and chili, fully loaded nachos, and more. The base…

Enchilada Sauce
Store-bought enchilada sauce almost always has a LOT of oil and this recipe is oil-free and quite easy to make so why not. Canned tomatoes are one of those ingredients that I like to always have on hand. I’ve even found them at Costco. They had diced, stewed, and tomato paste. This recipe calls for “puree” tomatoes…

Classic Basil Marinara with Angel Hair Pasta
One of my all time favorite dinners is a classic basil marinara sauce over angel hair pasta. The absolute best I ever had was at a quaint little restaurant in a grocery store mall. Even so, the atmosphere was romantic under dim lights and candle-lit tables and the service was impeccable. The restaurant also had a bakery…
Spiced Baked Sweet Potato Fries
Fries are such a treat! I don’t know anyone that can resist them so finding a way to make them healthier is a noble goal. I’m getting pretty close here, but I have to confess. It’s hard to make baked sweet potato fries crispy without oil. Did you know that Potatoes are the leading vegetable…

Did you grow up enjoying meatloaf as a family tradition? There are some foods that just feel comfortable and meatloaf is one of them.
