Let’s be honest, in most homes (at least here in the US) Chinese food is a weekly staple. Unfortunately, it’s hard to come by junk-free stir fry. Until now… Soy-Free, Gluten-Free, and none of the bad stuff means you can indulge. Filled with veggies, and real stir fry flavor. Don’t worry, the leftovers are just […]
These meatless (and gluten-free) quinoa and spinach burgers are easy to make in a big batch and freeze. Reheat in only 15 minutes, perfect for when you don’t have time or energy to cook. Plant-based protein and greens in one neat little patty package! Meatless Monday anyone? These little guys are something I used to […]
Ah chili. The most soul-warming, hearty meal around. In college, I made chili often in the winter because it was cheap to make. I made it meatless with a store-bought packet of who-knows-what, a can of tomato sauce and a can of beans, and it was ready in 10 minutes after just throwing everything in […]
Autumn really is a great foodie season. Getting creative with the seasonal fruits, veggies, squashes, and spices has been really fun so far, and I love having a definite theme. Also, this is an amazing benefit of trying to consciously eat seasonal and local! A couple weekends ago, Andrew and I had dinner at one […]
Remember that trip to Portland, Oregon that I keep raving about? Well here’s another recipe inspired by that trip! This one comes from our amazing lunch at Cultured Cavemen, a Paleo restaurant in Portland. This meal is specifically inspired by my lunch of carnitas, complete with grain-free tortillas and slaw. I took a different spin […]
Oh my my. I could eat this for every meal for a week, no joke. This recipe came from our need to stretch our budget a little bit farther, as money has been a little bit tight. So instead of housing $20 worth of cod in one sitting, we decided to draw it out by […]
Oh quinoa. What a trendy little tasty item you are. I know we have all caught the quinoa bug in the last couple of years, don’t even try to lie to yourself. You can’t read any quinoa recipe without attaching the word “healthy” to it, but I know some people would argue against that buzzword. […]
This salad is our #1 go-to meal when I need a quick-fix meal. Our jobs often have us working late (trainer lyyyfe), which means I most certainly do not feel like making a big, involved meal when I get home around 9pm on a Monday. It’s so simple, yet the flavors are huge: the perfect […]
I’ll be honest here, this is not a grain-free meal (although it could be– substitute zoodles [zuchini noodles] and voila!). I have gotten very strict about gluten-free, but we’re slightly more lenient on the non-gluten grains. Mainly these vices are sushi (brown rice, about once a week) and pasta (sprouted wild rice, about once a […]
Pulled pork/chicken is one of my greatest weaknesses, which is interesting for someone who usually couldn’t care less about meat in general. I don’t know what it is, but I could eat BBQ every single day… perhaps it’s the Virginia in me. I had yet to venture into the world of making mine own, however, […]
