Pineapple-Ginger Grilled Tofu with Edamame Salad

August 25, 2010

Whenever I travel where I’m going to eat is as important for me to figure out as what I’m going to do or see.  Business trips are no exception.  While to some they’re just a way to see clients and rack up some frequent flyer miles (Okay, I like that as well.) for me they’re [...]

Meatless Monday: Scrambled Egg and Potato Breakfast Tacos with Tomatillo Salsa

August 9, 2010

Today’s post is brought to you by the color purple. Yes, purple. I found myself inspired by some Purple Passion Potatoes that Tasteful Selections sent me to experiment with for their recipe contest.

Plant. Water. Eat. Repeat. – Adventures in Urban Gardening & a Recipe Featuring Tomatoes

August 4, 2010

Meatless Monday: Mexican-Spiced Chickpea Balls with Avocado Cream

A few weeks ago I was out with some new acquaintances and the topic of food and diet came up. It turned out that each of us was making efforts to reduce our meat consumption in our own way. One of my new friends confessed he was running out of ideas for meat-free meals. He [...]

Meatless Monday: Vegan Blueberry Crisp Pancakes

August 3, 2009

I seem to have a one track mind lately when it comes to using up all of the lusciously ripe blueberries from my CSA.  My brain keeps screaming “Pancakes!” even though I know there endless other recipes I could be making with my plump berries.  I’ve been bookmarking blueberry recipes like Blueberry Boy Bait and Grilled Chicken [...]

Meatless Monday: Fresh Vegetable Soup with Garlic Scapes

July 20, 2009

Tomorrow marks the start of a mini-vacation home to stay with my parents in Minnesota after an (hopefully) uneventful flight with the dog.  I go home to see family every summer and now that I have a puppy he’s coming to visit this year.  I’ve been spending the past couple days checking the usual pre-trip [...]
