Plant-Based Thanksgiving Menu

Butternut Squash Soup With Corn Muffins

This year I am trying to find deeper meaning in what it means to be thankful.  The meaning of thankful is defined as “pleased and relieved”.  To find that meaning, I am looking within, as well as to those who surround me.  It’s time to give thanks. It’s time to pass the plate, open up…

Lentil Cassoulet

Vegan Lentil Cassoulet Dinner With Sweet Potato and Fresh Garden Veggies

I have to tell you, that my sister used to always make meatloaf.  The thought of meat in loaf form, even before I was strictly plant-based, always made me feel sick.  I can’t even use “loaf” in the title of this post, hence the title lentil cassoulet!  Since the last time I had red meat…

Gluten Free Vegan Corn Muffins With Fresh Corn and Scallions

Corn muffins are great for a side to go with soups, stews, and chills. This batter also works well as a topping for a pot pie. I’d cut it in half if using for that purpose (and that gives me an idea for an upcoming recipe for wintertime….). Left overs are also great the next…

Perfect Pumpkin Pudding

Pumpkin Pudding With Pomegranate Seeds and Granola

OMG! I just learned the most amazing swap out that no one will ever guess! You can swap the typical heavy cream/coconut milk/nuts, and eggs found in your typical pudding recipe with…..lean in closer, closer….cannellini beans!!! Say what?! Coconut milk, often used in plant-based cooking, is high in saturated fat.  For those of us really…
