Raw Vegan Zesty Lime Corn Salad by The Blender Girl

This raw vegan corn salad is super easy and absolutely scrumptious. I have to admit, I am not a huge fan of corn. Well the vegetable variety anyway. I don’t cook with it very often as I can think of so many other more nutritious vegetables I prefer to work with. But there is something about the light zestiness of the lime juice and…

Vegan Coconut, Pumpkin and Red Lentil Soup by The Blender Girl

I have probably given this recipe to over 100 people. That is not an exaggeration. This soup is really that good! For those of you living in the United States, you will want to substitute sweet potato for the fresh pumpkin. I vary the greens every day depending on what I have available. Chopped green beans work really well. You can…

Creamy Vegan Potato Salad by The Blender Girl

I recently shared this potato salad with my friends Kris, Michelle, Emily, Nicole, and my father-in-law, Bob; and the reaction was unanimous–“Oh Wow! I could eat this salad every day.

Roasted Vegetable and Kale Salad by Unknown Chef

Saturday morning is my time to grocery shop. Will change to mid-week when I retire. It is easy to overlook Saturday and Sunday lunches because of weekend errands so I make a note on the menu pad to plan for weekend lunches. We eat lite lunches. Salads fit the bill.

Mango Coconut Bliss Smoothie by The Blender Girl

If you are in search of a taste of the tropics – look no further than this little glass of Heaven. I wanted to call it “Taste of Hawaii” but thought that was a tad corny. But I have let the cat out the bag now, so I suppose I may as well commit! Anyway, just throw everything in the blender and puree until smooth and creamy. I tried…

Raw Vegan Broccoli Salad by The Blender Girl

I share this recipe as a delicious way to serve up raw broccoli. I have used sunflower seeds and raw almonds. But you could use any nuts you like. For the dressing I have listed the quantities that I like. But you might like it with a bit more of a kick, and want to add in a bit more vinegar, lemon juice and sweetener. But this blend…

Hearty, nourishing, delicious, nutritious, and dead easy to make.

This phytochemical rich garlic broth will fight off any viral vampires you have to fight,…

How about Baked broccoli-cheddar rice dish by J. Gino Genovesi

There are many recipes of this kind in many books as well as on the internet. It is difficult to say where this dish started but it is served many ways and very often. it is quick, good and a delight to serve. I tried using different vegetables, but broccoli seems to go best with cheese and rice. One can use other toppings,…
