Creamy Vegetable Quinoa Soup

Image 4 Comments February 15, 2023 Vicki Brett-Gach

This soup is a soothing bowl of goodness, ready to stand up to the coldest winter day. It’s full of comforting potatoes, protein-rich quinoa, colorful veggies and a powerful punch of nutritious baby greens.

We absolutely love it with slices … Read more

Creamy, chunky, great … Read more

Pulled Jackfruit in Spicy BBQ Sauce

Image 3 Comments July 17, 2019 Vicki Brett-Gach

Not for me. That’s been my response (until now) to jackfruit, the trendy meat alternative that has even omnivores talking.

But now, I get it!

Jackfruit, as you may know, is an enormous fruit (like a huge spiky watermelon) that’s … Read more

We just spent 3 nights in a hotel in Traverse City and stayed completely oil free WFPB - with homemade food - for every meal while we were there. It took just a little bit of planning. Brought my @zavoramerica pressure cooker, to prepare the best-ever mashed potatoes 🥔 plus @zavoramerica induction burner and sauté pan, to make sautéed greens 🥬 (with a shallot and riced cauliflower). Also brought with us leftover cooked whole wheat pasta and homemade pasta sauce 🍝along with frozen batch-prepped red lentil and black bean soup that I had stored in my @soupercubes (which also helped keep everything cold in the cooler on our drive too). We just mixed and matched all of those ingredients plus @foodforlifebaking Ezekiel English muffins, @kitehillfoods cream cheese and lots of fresh fruit for the most delicious combinations! Shout out to @zestplantbasedkitchen for their awesome breakfast/lunch to take with us for the drive back home to Ann Arbor!l 💚
