	Spanish Style Beans and Rice by Rich H This vegan adaptation of traditional Spanish Style Beans and Rice is a nice light dish. Plate it with some fresh fruit slices for added color and flavor and you have a lovely, healthy dinner. If you choose to go more traditional, simply hard boil, peel and dice 2 eggs as a topping garnish and add it prior to serving.	2 votes 4344 views
	Barley Salad Primavera by Rich H We recently went with a "white salad" using only "white" or near white ingredients like barley, daikon, mushrooms, water chestnuts, etc. This barley salad is even better...and once again we can learn why color matters!	1 vote 2757 views

	Garden Vegetable Soup with Rice by Rich H It may be spring but in my book there is never a bad time for soup. It's especially nice when you can grow yor own veggies or get them locally from a farmers' market. While we're not quite there yet, this is a great soup to make anytime. It's hearty and healthy and just plain hits the spot!	1 vote 3462 views
	Rice and Nut Salad by Rich H This recipe is a really versatile one. It can serve as a hot rice dish, but we use it as a savory, cold salad. Either way, it is a delicious dish that you can make ahead and serve as a side or take it hot off the stove, mix it up and serve it warm as part of your main course.	1 vote 1563 views
	Italian Rice and Beans by Rich H This is a nice rice and beans dish that is similar to risotto. It is rich and creamy. We've made the lacto-ovo vegetarian version but it can easily be adapted to vegan with some simple substitutions.	1 vote 1 comment 2168 views
	Smokey Greens and Black Eyed Peas with Biscuits by Rich H Black-eyed peas (the food, not the band) combined with delicious kale are melded together into a flavorful dish that is sauteed with onion and garlic and then made to really pop with smoked paprika! Yum!	1 vote 2824 views
	Paella Wannabe by Rich H I had all of the ingredients I needed although I had to change things up a little from the traditional paella. I used brown rice instead of bomba or calasparra white rice. And, of course, this paella is vegetarian.	1 vote 2045 views
	Glazed Lemony Vegan Zucchini Bread by Rich H Ok. I thought we were done with zucchini for the year but low and behold there was one more straggler still hiding among the yellowing leaves. Couldn't believe it! So I decided to make this one into a dessert of sorts. A vegan zucchini bread with decidedly lemon flavor and a sweet-tart lemony glaze. Soooo good!	1 vote 3528 views

	Broccoli Stir Fry with Walnuts by Rich H This recipe is quick and easy but yields a dish that is tasty and very filling. Healthy green broccoli and walnuts make it especially delicious and the red peppers give it a nice visual appeal. Serve it over rice noodles.	1 vote 1894 views
	White Salad by Rich H Everyone knows how good greens are for us. But every now and then we like to take a different approach...go a little less colorful just for a dish or two! This simple salad, the white salad, still has plenty of flavor and nutrition.	1 vote 1685 views
