Butternut Squash Curry
A couple months ago, my friend made me a butternut squash curry and it was awesome. I begged her for the recipe, and well, she still hasn't given it to me (just because she's busy, not because she's refusing to)...so I decided I'd go ahead and make my own, using...
Vegan Congee with Sauteed Mushrooms and Greens
I created this vegan congee recipe because I needed something nourishing to help build blood and qi in Chinese Medicine terms (aka, I was totally drained and out of energy), and I was in the middle of doing a vegan "cleanse" of sorts for about 3 weeks last year. I...
Spaghetti Squash with Sausage Marinara (Vegan Option)
This dish is great if you're looking for a healthier option to pasta, and can be modified to be completely vegan. It can be served in the squash for a fancy serving presentation for company (or hey, for yourself or your family, no judgment- pretty food is more likely...

Roasted Acorn Squash Stuffed with Harvest Rice
This is a seriously impressive dish that isn’t as hard to make as it looks. It is a beautiful main course for Thanksgiving or a fall dinner for the vegans at your table…but it’s so tasty, omnivores will devour it (my husband definitely did!). The time it takes to make...
Sauteed Savory-Sweet Brussels Sprouts
This is a Brussels sprouts dish inspired by a local area restaurant where I had a dish similar to this and was really impressed at this sweet-yet-savory take. I knew I had to attempt to recreate it, and I think I’ve come pretty darn close. This would be a great side...
Holiday Green Beans
No, not THAT holiday green bean dish that shall not go mentioned that has canned soup and fried onions on it. Yuck. No thanks. No offense to those of you who like your green beans smothered in that, but I'll stick to this version of my mom's green beans. Not...
Smashed Sweet Potatoes (Gluten-Free, Vegan)
Ok, I'm going to admit something...I had all of these holiday dishes photographed and done 2 years ago...but my son was a baby only around 7 weeks old, and I got too ambitious with thinking I'd get them out then. Did I do it last year? No, that slipped by too. ...
Holiday Stuffing (Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free)
STUFFING.....who's with me?!? Seriously, I love stuffing and I am probably half made of Stove Top stuffing given how much my mom made it for us growing up. Sigh...that red 80's box of Stove Top brings back memories. But let's get real...I think we don't want to eat...
Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free Vegan Pumpkin Pie
As far as I'm concerned, the only reason food-wise for Thanksgiving and other holidays is for PUMPKIN PIE!!!! I grew up with the Mrs. Smith's pumpkin pies, with tons of Cool Whip on them, of course. Well, now that my 40 year old body does not love dairy nor gluten,...
