I recently took a trip to one of my favorite vegan destinations, New York (see recent restaurant reviews here). One of my go-to vegan restaurants there is Champs Diner. I’ve only been twice, but that was enough to win me over. During my most recent trip, I went all in and […]
Dinner
Cilantro Lime Black Bean Burger
One of my all-time favorite things to eat is a good BURGER! I’m always trying to find ways to figure out how I can eat more of them without it becoming redundant, so I decided to take my original Black Bean Burger Recipe for a spin and give it a […]
Chicken Fried Jackfruit
Not too long ago I posted a recipe for Chicken Fried Tofu and was truly blown away by the response! Who knew folks liked fried tofu so much?! I’ll be honest, that’s one thing that I miss after going vegan… a good ol’ piece of fried chicken. Clearly things have […]
Sweet Potato Curry
My goodness! This sweet potato curry is definitely on my list of favorites! One of my favorite things to make when I was a carnivore was my mom’s chicken curry recipe. It was creamy, flavorful and paired perfectly with rice! Since then, I’ve veganized the recipe (maybe I’ll share it […]
Chicken Fried Tofu
One of my favorite vegan restaurants in the Triangle is Souly Vegan. I recently had one of their delicious plates (BBQ chick’n, cornbread, rice, and greens) and after finishing, I wanted more! The problem is, at $13 a plate it’s not so easy to do! Instead of giving in, I […]
Jackfruit Pulled Pork Sandwich
Jackfruit is one of the newest vegan trends. It’s a fruit that happens to makes a great meat substitute. This fruit is really popular in Asia. While visiting there last summer, I actually had the chance to see them hanging from trees in person! These fruits are HUGE! I wondered […]
Dinner Rolls
Confession: I’ve never baked bread before. At least not by myself. Growing up, I would help my grandma make it occasionally. I’ve also made cinnamon rolls before which might be a tiny bit related. Anywho, I’ve been wanting to make some Dinner Rolls for a while and Thanksgiving seemed to […]
Sweet Potato & Black Bean Burger
Lately I’ve been searching for a good Sweet Potato & Black Bean Burger recipe. I needed for it to be simple. No funky ingredients, no strange steps and I needed to be able to put it together fairly quickly! Welp…this doesn’t happen often, but Pinterest let me down! I went […]
AMAZING Vegan Alfredo!
Ya’ll, I have been missing alfredo all year! Before going vegan, I probably had alfredo at least once a month. It was another one of those go-to meals. Boil some noodles, crack open a jar of alfredo sauce, plate it, and eat it. Simple! Well, I’ve since moved on from […]
Black Bean & Sweet Potato Enchiladas
If you’re looking to win over your carnivore friends with a good vegan meal, try these Black Bean & Sweet Potato Enchiladas! They’re so good and filling, your friends won’t even realize there wasn’t any meat inside until they’re scraping up the last bite. I’ve never made enchiladas before, but […]
