Sunday prep day?  NOT SO MUCH. This week was allllll kinds of off because of the aforementioned food poisoning. Luckily I had no room in my diet for produce until Tuesday…which is when I finally got to the grocery store to restock. Heyooooo. I spent a solid 45 minutes washing and cutting and storing – shredding kale, chopped carrots and celery, and roasting – before bolting off to school pickups.  I am still super proud of squeezing in two stores in before doing all that jazz.  I was h u s t l i n… Read more >

Turns out, it’s not as scary as I thought.  Not at all.  But!  Ever since… Read more >

You could certainly go a bunch of directions with this recipe, but I kept it vegan because…LOOK!!! Chilaquiles are obviously a traditional Mexican dish, so this is not in the realm of authentic.  However, I wanted to tweak the idea of a dish with fried tortilla strip topped with a spicy tomato sauce and cheese (which is what chilaquiles are) using a hummus sauce as the base. Also, it’s super bowl season and Sabra is the “official dip sponsor” so obviously I had to get involved.  Check out dip zone.com for more info on how Stacy’s and Sabra… Read more >
