Pinto Fajita Burger Patties

YUM! These are another fun bean burger that make me realize the possibilities are endless!

Black Bean Chipotle Burgers

Talk about a super fun experimental success! These are delicious black bean burgers that can be baked, pan fried, grilled or even eaten raw! I don't know why you'd want to eat them raw, but hey....they are that good that even my 8 year old boy was snitching from the bowl before they were baked. Add the delicious patty to a whole wheat bun with flax seed or a cheese & jalapeno bagel and enjoy!

Roasted Brussels Sprouts

Carrots... cooked :)

Broccoli and Sliced Almonds

Green Olive Relish

Black Bean Lime Salad with Cilantro Sauce

okara oatmeal cookie

Lovin' these oatmeal cookies.  They are healthy and delicious and if you want a little more health try adding some ground flax and wheat bran. Okara is soybean meal. It is a good source of protein and high in fiber.

quinoa salad with tempeh nuggets

tempeh bake

Another family favorite. Tempeh is a fantastic source of protein. It has a nutty flavor and a firm texture. This recipe is from The Tofu Cookbook, which I love.

sweet cinnamon quinoa

I found this recipe online and loved it. We really love quinoa at our house and this is a fantastic way to enjoy it for breakfast.

pumpkin pie filling

This is a great vegan pumpkin pie filling. Delicious and very easy. Try doing things a little differently with the spices or top with pecans and enjoy.

pie crust - vegan

This recipe is awesome for a great vegan pie crust but it also works well with adding vegan chocolate chips and forming into dough balls.  Cook them as cookies or just enjoy them raw.  

greengo sauce

so, dressings & sauces of any variety are often not healthy, making you feel like you can only take a small amount. this is an awesome sauce/dressing that is healthy, yummy and has nice 'kick'. I love to have this on salad or in a burrito.

ginger tofu

This is an excellent recipe to go with stir fried veggies on a bed of brown rice. We love stir fries, especially because you can modify and experiment with different sauces and ingredients and change up the veggies with whatever your in the mood for or whatever is in season.

sloppy fauxs

Another favorite at our house, TVP is very versatile. It is healthy and a great source of protein.  This recipe can be done in a variety of ways from sandwiches to casseroles.

tex mex quinoa

Quinoa is an excellent source of protein and fiber. It is actually a seed.  There is a ton of fabulous way to make it up. This recipe is a favorite in my house.

whole grain waffles

This is my families favorite waffle recipe. It comes from one of my favorite vegan cookbooks. They are delicious and healthy. The slight sweetness makes these fantastic with fresh berries, sugarless homemade applesauce or maybe some plain soy yogurt.

orange ginger baked tofu

This is an awesome recipe with rice or noodles or maybe just a salad.  The whole family gives this one a thumbs up. We love it.

rich chocolate brownie cake

I found this recipe on the internet when I was looking for ways to use the okara after making soy milk.  This is a great recipe. Rich, moist and healthy.  I do it pretty much just the way this recipe says.
