    Chickpea & Butternut Squash Curry Recipe

    For my birthday, my daughter’s asked me what I wanted to do. One of the things I cherish most is the time we spend together, so I asked them to make me a home cooked meal with a recipe from a cookbook that my British cousin sent us for Christmas: Feed me Vegan by Lucy…

    Meal-prep is my typical Sunday task because I like to have an easy answer of the daily question of “what’s for dinner?” This week I realized I had tofu in the fridge. It wasn’t my intention to cook it during this process, but I’ve been wanting to try a tofu scramble, so I pulled out the…

    One-pot Lentil Soup

    Simplicity is essential when it comes to mealtime. I’ve always been drawn to easy-to-make recipes that have few ingredients, take a short time to prepare and cook, there’s little cleanup, and provide leftovers.

  • Carrot Fennel Soup

    Carrot Fennel Soup

    So, first off, I just learned that fennel is an herb and not a green vegetable! As part of a challenge, I decided to cook with a green vegetable I had never cooked with before. While on my weekly shopping haul to Trader Joe’s (a.k.a. one of my “happy” places), I picked up some fennel. It was…
