Harvest Bread Salad

October 11, 2009

Thanks to the Foodbuzz Tastemaker Program I had the chance to sample two of Nature’s Pride loaves of bread: 100% Whole Wheat and 12 Grain. Even better, Nature’s Pride is offering sponsorships for six bloggers to attend the Foodbuzz Blogger Festival in San Francisco this November. To enter, bloggers must create an original [...]

Vegetarian Tequila Berry Salad

August 12, 2009

Time for yet another summery recipe.  Today I had a wild craving for a mayonnaise-based salad.  Some might say that calling this a summer food is a stretch, but in my mind a picnic or BBQ just isn’t complete without some variation on the mayonnaise-based salad.  And because I’m not a big meat eater I’m [...]

Smothered Tempeh Sandwich & Sweet Potato Salad

May 20, 2008

This menu is proof that just because you don’t like something when you’re younger does not mean you’re destined to hate it forever. As a kid, mushrooms and soy products were two of the things I avoided at all costs. In fact, I didn’t end up becoming fond of mushrooms until last year [...]

Almost Vegan Taco Salad

April 29, 2008

While enjoying lunch over the weekend with my boyfriend and his friends at a local Tex-Mex restaurant called Rudy’s I spotted a bubbling bowl of Chile con Queso on the table of the couple seated next to us. While I didn’t order it, it did slap me with a HUGE craving. It seemed like the [...]

Light Dinner: Eating Well’s Caesar Salad with Shrimp

April 24, 2008

Today I got a lovely delivery at work from one of my thoughtful vendors.  It was a huge crate of cakes and cookies from a local baking company.  I swear whenever I get a package like that my inner cavewoman comes out.  I tend to overindulge and before I know it my tummy is overstuffed [...]
