This pasta with peas and fresh basil is so simple, but seriously packed with flavor! It's a super easy pasta dinner that can be ready in about twenty minutes, so it's perfect for busy weeknights. In case you didn't know, pasta and peas are an amazing combination! Maybe not the most obvious one, but trust me, they're delicious together.

Pearl Couscous Soup

This vibrant couscous soup is made with veggies, chickpeas, and pearl couscous in a spiced tomato broth. It's so easy to make and tastes like a big bowl of comfort! Couscous has a special place in my heart. It was one of the first "vegetarian" foods that was introduced to me after giving up meat as a teenager. There's nothing exclusively vegetarian about couscous, although it has been the main ingredient in many meatless meals enjoyed by me since then. Although I enjoyed couscous in many dishes, one that I mostly neglected was soup. You know what though? Couscous totally belongs in soup! I ..read more

This vegan hummingbird cake is made with three layers of cinnamon-spiced pecan studded banana pineapple cake, with dairy-free cream cheese frosting in between. Every bite is like a mouthful of sunshine! Hummingbird cake might just be the ultimate spring dessert. Carrot cake tends to get all the attention this time of year, and I totally get that. This southern-style vegan hummingbird cake has some similarities to my vegan carrot cake recipe — it's nutty, moist, spiced, and includes pineapple. But instead of carrots, the main flavor featured in this cake is banana. It's tropical and fruity ..read more

Curried Parsnip Soup

This easy parsnip soup is sweet, creamy, and flavored with a touch of curry. It's a really simple soup, but so comforting and intensely flavorful! Okay, so parsnip soup doesn't sound all that exciting. But I'm convinced that this is simply because nobody really knows how delicious and amazing parsnips are. Parsnips are a very misunderstood vegetable! I find that most folks don't do much cooking with parsnips, at least in the United States where I live. But you should! Do you love carrots? Parsnips are like carrots, but way better. Whereas carrots are mildly sweet with an earthy flavor, par ..read more

This vegan lemon loaf is super easy to whip up and bursting with zippy, lemony flavor! It's a perfect dessert for everything from special dinners to just enjoying with an afternoon cup of tea. 'Tis the season for lemon flavored sweets! I don't know about you, but I absolutely love the bright, tangy flavor of lemon, especially during the early days of spring. This time of year I always find myself whipping up lemony treats like my vegan lemon bars, vegan lemon bundt cake, and vegan lemon curd. One treat that was missing until today was a vegan lemon loaf, Starbucks style. I have to admit, I ..read more

This easy Swiss chard pasta is packed with vibrant greens and juicy Kalamata olives in a savory rosemary infused tomato sauce. It's absolutely delicious and perfect for dinner on a busy weeknight! I love, love, love my leafy greens, and I find myself constantly cooking with veggies like kale, spinach and arugula. But I really love Swiss chard, and I feel like it's a bit underappreciated as greens go. A few years ago I shared a recipe for a delicious Swiss chard soup, which is still a favorite in my household. But Swiss chard needs a little more appreciation! Swiss chard is so versatile, an ..read more
