Eggplant Pizza Bites with Mushroom, Green Onion, and Date Sauce
Before I switched to plant based, I used to be obsessed with this restaurant in Beacon Hill (Boston) by Chef Todd English called Figs. My favorite menu item was the Fig & Leek Spicy Shrimp pizza. I searched for figs, but they are unfortunately out of season so I came up with my own little twist on this eggplant creation! This meal has super simple ingredients and the taste was phenomenal! I love sweet & savory so I often combine them! This was flavorful, and perfectly paired!

Simple Burst Cherry Tomato Sauce
I grew up cooking with my mother, so a lot of my passion for cooking comes from her! I am also very passionate about health and wellness, so I've taken what I've learned from her, and combined that with my desire to be healthier. & In my opinion, the simpler the ingredients, the better the taste! This sauce is a perfect example of that! I use this cherry tomato sauce for so many recipes because it's so simple to make, and so delicious. Ingredients : 1 container of cherry tom

Jars: Links & FAQ's
Hello! Welcome to all of my new followers, subscribers, etc! Thank you so much for being here. My recent video -- which now has 2.3 M views (WOW! Thank you!) has gotten a lot of comments with questions about the jars, and where to buy them so I'm here to help! I am going to share here which jars I use, and how I use them. I typically eat the oats out of the jar because in the morning I grab them from the fridge and take them to go! With the salads, if I am home, I pour them i

Roasted Brussels Sprouts, Kale & Veggie Balsamic Salad
This is another fall inspired salad, and filled with lots of nutrients and lots of yummy flavors! I roasted my Brussels sprouts in my air fryer and they came out perfect. The key to adding the cooked veggies to these salads (if you're meal prepping them) is to let them cool before adding them in!
Here's what ya need!
Dressing:
About 1 & 1/2 tbsp. Balsamic Vinegar
1 tbsp. Maple Syrup
The salad;
1/4 c. White Onion
1/2 c. Sliced Carrots
1-2 c. Kale (massaged in oli

Air Fried Eggplant “Parm” : Meal Prep
I started a meal prep company a few years back wanting to help people eat healthier, and to help them better understand portions. Every body is different, and we all require different calories, different macros, etc.. It took me a long time to make custom meals for people to meet their needs, but it's what some people need in order to hit their goals. Meal planning, and portion controlling can be time consuming and does require a lot of planning, but if your goals are more th

Air Fried Sweet Potato Fries
If you don't have an air fryer already, be prepared to buy one after reading this! In college, I took a class for public speaking because like most people, I was absolutely terrified of speaking in front of people. For my final speech, I chose something I was (and still am) very passionate about: my air fryer! LOL. I know it sounds silly, but my air fryer changed my life in the best ways! Before I get into the recipe for these crispy and delicious sweet potato fries, I want t

Pesto Zucchini Noodle with Burst Cherry Tomato Sauce
When I make my meals, I always first and foremost want them to taste good. That is my number one requirement. Secondly, I want them to be as fresh and simple as possible, so using as little ingredients as possible, and raw veggies when applicable. I also almost always want a meal that is high in protein . I want to feel good from my meals, and I want them to leave me feeling energized, and filled, but not stuffed/bloated/tired. I eat FREQUENTLY throughout the day so I don't

Mediterranean Style Lettuce Wrap Patty with Lemon Tahini Sauce
So yes, I love love love making lettuce wraps! I find that it makes everything taste so much more flavorful, fresh, and it has the MOST perfect crunch, ever. This "burger" would be great on a cauliflower crust wrap as well. I wish I had mushrooms in my kitchen when I made this, but overall it was soooo tasty. If you love Mediterranean flavors like I do, you'll love this one! I have seen a lot of comments asking how to get the perfect lettuce wrap, so here's what I do. I alway

Eggplant Pesto Pizza Bites w/ Balsamic Glaze
If you’ve been following along, you know I love my carbs — but I tend to reach for root vegetables and fruit more often than bread. Nothing against a soft, warm loaf (truly one of life’s simple joys), but when I swap bread for produce, I feel lighter, more energized, and more balanced overall. These eggplant pesto pizza bites are my current obsession. Think of them as a fresh twist on cauliflower-crust pizza: lighter than bread, but every bit as satisfying. The base is roaste

No Bake Carrot Cake Protein Bites
we are just about in the fall season! it’s my favorite time of year for food— I’m obsessed with all fall flavors! especially carrot cake, even though I eat it year round :) I love to bake with super simple, whole food ingredients, and rarely add sugar. I also prefer lighter baked goods that I make with protein powder instead of flour. I love this because as a vegan, I already eat lots of carbs, and am always trying to get extra protein in my body, so swapping flour for protei

Grocery List & Kitchen Must-Haves :)
Are you so excited to stock your kitchen with plant based essentials?! To some people, grocery shopping is just a chore, or even a nuisance, but it's honestly one of my favorite things that I do every week! I LOVE going in to Trader Joe's and seeing all of their new items. I'm even happy to wait in their ~20 minute lines to maintain social distancing orders... I know, I'm crazy. Hopefully this list can make your grocery shopping experience easier, and maybe even more enjoyab
