Cilantro Corn Salsa – Chipotle Copycat Recipe

So, I kind of have a Chipotle obsession. Okay, more like an addition. I get the veggie burrito bowl every time, and one of my favorite things in the bowl is Chipotle’s corn salsa. SO GOOD. As I was browsing Pinterest one day every single day, I came across a copycat recipe. Yes! I tried […]

Gluten-Free Biscuits & Vegan Gravy

Back before I was gluten-free and vegetarian, I would always get biscuits and gravy at diners. I was obsessed. I would just push all the bits of sausage to the side.

Buffalo Tofu Chopped Salad

One of my absolute favorite dishes to make is buffalo tofu, but I have a tendency to just make the tofu, dip it in ranch, end up eating the ENTIRE batch, and neglect any and all vegetables because the tofu is SO GOOD. So, I decided to reexamine this dish today, and try to make […]

Gluten-Free Black Bean Burger

Black bean burgers used to be my absolute favorite thing to eat out at restaurants. Most burger joints in Bloomington, IN (where I live) are very accommodating to vegetarians, and it was honestly difficult to pick the best black bean burger in town. Unfortunately, since I’ve been gluten-free, I’ve been unable to indulge, since most […]

Tofu Fajita Bowls

I am such a huge fan of Mexican food, I could probably eat it every day. And the greatest part is that with Mexican food there are so many vegetarian and gluten-free options, especially in restaurants! Of all the restaurant genres, they probably have the largest variety of food that I can eat, and I […]

Gluten-Free Breaded Tofu Tenders

I’m sure you all have experienced this too, but occasionally I will get a serious craving for the type of food I ate as a kid. The other day it was relatively warm outside, and I was craving a meal that reminded me of childhood summers: from-the-box mac & cheese, corn on the cob, and […]

I use this flavor combination in so many things, and just recently I thought to do it with Spaghetti Squash. Duh!! How had I not thought of this before? Anyway, I gave […]
