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.

This creation debuted on our Cook Live Episode 13 and the theme was Fast Meals, so naturally I needed a fast mocktail to go with the flow. I’m not sure if this is the “Original Gangster” Mocktail, but it is made with orange and grapefruit juices and takes about 40 seconds to get it in hand in time to say “Cheers!”
