Broccoli, Asparagus and Red Pepper Stir-Fry with Quinoa by Brenda Walker

The red peppers make this stir-fry just a pretty as it is delicious! It can be served over rice instead of quinoa if you prefer but I honestly love the quinoa and the health benefits are amazing!

Beet and Cashew Croquettes with Tahini Sauce by Casey Angelova

Last week, I went to dinner at Cru in Sofia and I had the most awesome dish, Beet and Cashew Croquettes with Tahini Sauce. Currently, I am on the Liver Cleanse Diet, which encourages the eating of red and orange vegetables, such as beets, carrots and sweet potatoes. When I saw the beet dish on the menu, I didn't have my expectations…

Paella "Reina Sofia" by Frank Fariello

Well, I suppose that it is paella week at our house. I just couldn't resist trying out another kind of paella—a vegetarian paella that I have dubbed paella «Reina Sofia», after Spain's Queen Sofia, who happens to be a vegetarian. The basic method is the same as that for paella a la valenciana, with the critical difference that…

Penne ai funghi (Penne with Mushroom and Tomato Sauce) by Frank Fariello

Fall is my favorite season, and one of the best reasons to love the Fall is all the wonderful food you get to eat! The sprightly but rather thin dishes of summer give way to more substantial fare: game, soups and stews of all kinds, pumpkin and other squashes, beans, apples, pears and, perhaps best of all, mushrooms! Here's a…

Peanut Butter Banana Tortilla Snack by Spicie Foodie

Peanut Butter Banana Tortilla Snack or roll-ups, wow that's a name. Well I don't actually know what to call these yummy snacks, so that will have to do. My husband is the one who actually introduced me to and told me about the existence of these. He told me that in the American Southwest they are called peanut butter roll ups and are…

Birthday Lemon Cake with Chocolate Ganache by Ksenia

Vegan baking can be a little bit tricky. Sometimes the batter won’t rise, and the result will be more fragile and delicate than with eggs and dairy. This cake really had a very delicate, spongy texture but it rose perfectly. I suppose it was because of the soy yogurt, which I never used as a binder before but that worked perfectly…

Marinated Portobello Filet Mignon - Raw by Rawfully Tempting

Portobello mushrooms, the Filet Mignon of veggies! I was so excited to find this recipe but was a bit concerned that the seasoning was too intense. I made a few adjustments, and it came out FABULOUS! This is one of my favorite raw main courses so far!!! The good news - it's EASY! It took very little time to prepare, however, I…

Granola Clusters by Megan DeLong

This recipe is yet another accident/experiment from last night when I was trying to replicate a healthy cookie recipe I found on 101 cookbooks. I didn't have everything required so made a few substitutions and I wouldn't call the end result a cookie really, but more a banana bread meets granola! I think you'll have great fun…

Apple Cobbler Pie by Kiki Thompson

Ok…all I have to say is that this is HEAVEN!!! This is an Apple Cobbler made with a coconut-based whipped topping. All the blended ingredients of cinnamon, lemon juice, and nutmeg make it the perfect cobbler.

Savory Hummus by Kiki Thompson

This is a traditional greek dip used with falafel sandwiches, gyros, etc. I also use it in my wraps or as a veggie dip.

Cinnamon Swirl Cheesecake by Kiki Thompson

I had tested many vegan cheesecakes and came really close to the dairy form, but this is it! The flavoring and everything is just perfect! It's decadent. It's probably not the best option when it comes to staying healthy, but it's nice to know that I have an option when I get those cravings for cheesecake :)
