Smoke Me Some Gouda

Pretty much anyone who has been vegan for quite some time, like 2-3 days, will say that the food she misses the most is cheese. For me, smoked gouda was one of the must-haves on any worthy cheese platter. So imagine my delight when this recipe popped into existence! I hope you love it as much as I do.

Spudtacular Vegan Scalloped Potatoes

I think this dish tastes best the next day reheated, which is convenient because chilling the potatoes will increase the resistant starch in them and up the anti of the prebiotic benefit of the potatoes. Your tastebuds will thank you AND your gut will thank you!

Pickled red onions add just the right amount of ZING and WOW to Buddha bowls, salads, sandwiches, tacos, and veggie burgers, to name a few faves! Swirls of marinated red onion elevate so many dishes with an unexpected sweet and tangy pop.

Sometimes weird is good! These are ingredients that are generally not put together, but when they are, they are a wow! Not only nutritionally, but your taste buds will thank you for this lovely combo! We usually make these open faced, but feel free to put a top on it and make it a proper sandwich.

This is a nice well-rounded blend of ingredients that toast up well and taste great together. If you have kids, it’s OK to sprinkle a little vegan cheese on there! We usually stay away from it but if it will get your kids to eat these little guys, then go for it!

Pesto make so many things go from blah to bling! Pesto pasta is an obvious choice, but you can serve it warm or cold using anything from angel hair, to fusilli to gnocchi. Use it as a spread on grilled vegetable sandwiches, thin it out by blending some extra water in and drizzle it over salad. Endless possibilities!

This creamy Tuscan gnocchi is decadent and delicious! Whip it together in no time for a simple Monday meal, but it has the wow factor of an elegant dinner. It’s almost embarrassing to serve it to guests, because it hardly takes any effort and they don’t stop marveling over how amazing it tastes.
