Oktoberfest: A celebration synonymous with German sausages, pretzels, and BEER! For the October Burger of the Month, I wanted to create a burger that really brought all of the tastes of Oktoberfest together. I did provide a formula for veggie burgers in my first post of this series. But today, for this monstrous burger, I had to use two of my favorite meat swaps from Beyond Meat. BEYOND the Regular Veggie Burger So, two years ago I tried the Beyond Burger for the first time. I even cooked it and ate it on Facebook life for my old blog. You can…

A Little Disclaimer: It’s my favorite time of year. Not just because of the flavors (apples, pumpkin, and cinnamon) that abound. It’s the time of year where friends and families gather around to reconnect and share a meal. That said, I will be focusing on food-centric posts until the new year. There’s a new Burger-of-the-Month series (one new burger recipe every month), the Thanksgiving series (one each week, perfect for your Thanksgiving table), and some comfort food to get you through the winter. Now, onto the perfect food to kick off National Apple Month and fall in general… Apple Fritters!…

As the summer starts to come to its end, I, like many, am suffering the consequences reaping the benefits of planting one too many summer squash plants. Now, unfortunately, I was never taught the art of canning... So, what to do with all this summer squash...? Well, lucky for my kitchen counter and you, I've come up with a delicious way for them to disappear quicker than you can say, "Summer Squash Lemon Poppy Seed Muffins"! Okay... that's a bit of a mouthful, I'll take suggestions in the comments for a better, less wordy, name. But, you're going to crave these…

Burgers... What's not to love about them? When I was first starting this blog, I was wrapping up my time as the general manager of a burger joint. Yes, a vegan managing a burger joint (hey, there was a veggie burger on the menu!)... And, I even got to help create menu items! Yup! One of the best parts about my job was helping to develop a new burger for our Burger of the Month special. Drawing inspiration from different cultures, holidays, and non-burger dishes I helped to create burgers that I couldn't even try (food allergies, remember...). AND IT WAS…

Guys, it's the most wonderful time of the year... FOOTBALL IS BACK! College Football starts this weekend! I'm so ready to have everyone over for the game and the gameday foods. Now, at first glance, this may seem like a recipe you’ve seen all over Pinterest, but it’s a new day and a new way! My love for watching football with gameday grub was the inspiration for this Buffalo Cauliflower Sammie. I call it the love child of buffalo cauliflower wings and cauliflower steaks. Topped with a dairy-free blue cheese spread and thinly sliced celery, you’ll want this one for…

A little over two months ago I moved in with my boyfriend. Safe to say, the transition has been an "adjustment". (Read: I'm going crazy as the job search continues...) One of the smoothest transitions has been in the kitchen. It's one place I can always count on when I feel my life trying to spiral out of control. Spirals... Spiralizer... mmm Zoodles! The Tale of Two Spiralizers For a few years, I saw people making veggie noodles and was dying to try them. So, for Christmas 2015, I decided to ask both of my parents. I gave each of them a list…
