Black Bean and Sweet Potato Tacos

Black Bean and Sweet Potato Tacos

 

These Black Bean and Sweet Potato Tacos are one of those happy discoveries born out of being bored with our usual dinner rotation and trying to use ingredients already on hand. I came home without dinner planned one night, and so bored with the same old same old that we had been having on rotation for a couple months. Not wanting to go to the store or out to eat, I started scrounging. This is how some of my very favorite recipes have been made, because it is when I am forced and inspired to be more creative. These recipes are also usually very quick and easy because they are not planned and last minute, therefore they are simple ingredients and quick because it is after work and I am hungry!

Vegan Caesar Salad

 

Who doesn’t love a good creamy caesar salad?? I know I do. Often they are not a very healthy option even though they are a salad, since they have such heavy dressings and are full of croutons and cheese. With this version you can enjoy a creamy yummy salad AND feel good about a healthy salad choice! It is packed with nutrients!
The dressing for this salad is vegan and filled with healthy fats and protein, and even more protein is added with the quinoa. This salad is nice and filling.

Brussels Sprouts, Quinoa, and Lentils Bowl

by Leave a Comment

 

I know this may seem unconventional, but this is one of my very favorite breakfasts! I make a giant batch of Roasted Brussels Sprouts, quinoa, and lentils and eat this all week. It is a super satisfying and filling meal that lasts me until my next meal (much more than I can say for most “conventional” breakfasts). It takes no time to make each morning since it it is already prepared and keeps for at least a week. This also makes a great to-go lunch!

Healthy Walnut “Parmesan”

Healthy Walnut "Parmesan"

 

This topping is the bomb. It is yummy and nutty, and satisfies much in the same way that a grated parmesan topping does. Of course is not the same, but equally good in my opinion. It adds a really nice texture and can be used on similar dishes as you would want grated parmesan for such as salads, caesar salads, pastas, and much more!

Roasted Veggie Chili

 

Nothing quite says warm and cozy fall meal like a nice bowl of comforting chili does, and this Roasted Veggie Chili really hits the spot by including some great fall vegetables and a deep complex flavor. Roasting the veggies really helps to give it that extra rich flavor every chili needs, and makes a meat not necessary to attain that flavor.

Roasted Balsamic Brussels Sprouts

Roasted Balsamic Brussels Sprouts

 

I have never understood why Brussels Sprouts have gotten such a bad rap as the “disgusting vegetable”. They are so good! I am guessing it all comes down to them not being cooked the right way, which definitely can ruin them. Roasted is the way to go people, roasted all the way. These Roasted Balsamic Brussels Sprouts are very timely for the season as well because they make a fabulous and easy side dish for your holiday dinner table. They are extra awesome for the holidays because they add great nutrition and a low calorie option to the feasting, and they are so easy therefore not adding a bunch of extra work!

 

Roasted Balsamic Brussels Sprouts

Ok, who here was well into adult hood before you knew that these were called “Brussels” sprouts, with an S, as in the capitol of Belgium? *Raises hand*. Hopefully I am not alone in this. I never heard the “S” or made the connection until honestly, last year. I could not find a straight answer as to whether they were called this because they originated in the Brussels, but that is where the name came from for some reason or another….

Cauliflower Fried Rice

Cauliflower Fried Rice

 

Healthy low carb quick and easy take out made at home?? Oh yes. This Cauliflower “Fried Rice” really is one of my favorites! It satisfies that take out craving, but is so healthy you can eat the whole box worth because it is basically just a big plate of vegetables!

 

Cauliflower Fried Rice

 

Replacing the rice with cauliflower makes it low calorie and low carb, and cauliflower also adds a great dose of nutrition from the cruciferous vegetable. The protein from the tofu and the peas make it filling and satisfying.

Vegan Taco Salad

 

Want to spice up your Taco Tuesday (or Wednesday or Thursday)? Try a taco salad! This Vegan Taco Salad has no meat or dairy, but trust me, it doesn’t need it. It is full of all the taco flavors and textures you could ask for and is very filling.

 

Vegan Taco Salad

 

Taco night is a staple in our house at least once a week. My husband doesn’t want salad every night (like I often do) and this recipe is great because I can have a salad while he has tacos, and we don’t have to make two totally different meals. Same ingredients, mine just goes in a bowl with more lettuce! Makes for a great his & hers meal;)
