Oven Baked Cajun Salmon
Oven Baked Cajun Salmon is a great weeknight meal! It’s a one pan meal that is easy to assemble and will leave you perfectly satisfied. The salmon is tender and not too filling, and the veggies are roasted to perfection. The Cajun seasoning gives off a bold, spicy flavor with a slight earthiness. It’s an all-purpose seasoning that I use on a regular basis. The recipe can be found here. Start by preheating the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the salmon on the baking sheet. If you did not have the skin remove from the salmon at the grocery store that is just fine! Place the skin side down on the baking sheet and it will effortlessly fall off when done baking so no need to worry about removing it yourself. If you did have the skin removed at the grocery store, … Continue reading

Lentils & Vegetables in Peanut Sauce
Looking for a quick and easy weeknight meal that is also flavorful and delicious? Look no further! Meatless Monday has a new fan favorite…. Lentils & Vegetables in Peanut Sauce. This is a vegan / vegetarian meal that’s packed with fresh vegetables and protein. I chose some of my favorite veggies to use in this dish, but you can add any veggies you like. You can add mushrooms, squash, snap peas, you name it! The peanut sauce is what really brings it all together. It’s bursting with flavor and is rich and creamy. I think it tasted great when coated on the veggies or when mixes with some white rice. So good! And this dish comes together in about 20 minutes. The recipe can be found here. Start by adding the peanut butter, ginger, garlic, soy sauce (or tamari), lime juice, lime zest, cilantro, sriracha, cayenne, salt, sugar, sesame oil, … Continue reading

Pan Roasted Whole Cauliflower (Vegan)
We recently ordered a whole roasted cauliflower as an appetizer at a local restaurant and man was it delicious! We talked about it all night and knew we had to *attempt* to recreate it. Our flavors were slightly different than what the restaurant served, and we added additional vegetables to make it a meal versus appetizer, but the end result was amazing. The cauliflower was tender and cooked through (and it wasn’t burned!), and the seasoning had great flavor. It was like eating a pot roast dinner with a side of vegetables. We call it Pan Roasted Whole Cauliflower and highly suggest giving it a try! The recipe can be found here. Start by preheating the oven to 450 degrees F. Make sure you check the oven racks first! You want to bake the cauliflower on the middle rack but need enough room for the height of the pan to … Continue reading

Veggie French Bread Pizza
Veggie French Bread Pizza is incredibly flavorful and the perfect weeknight meal, especially if you’re in a hurry! It’s an alternative to traditional pizza and is completely customizable so you can tailor it to meet anyone’s taste preference. It comes together in about 30 minutes or less. I selected vegetables to use that I knew both Andrew and I would like but use whatever you have on hand or whatever is fresh in your garden. It’s your creation so it’s up to you! The recipe can be found here. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Slice the French bread in half, horizontally. If the bread is too long to fit on the baking sheet, slice the bread in half again so you have 4 shorter pieces instead of 2 long pieces. I bought one long French bread, but I know you … Continue reading

Vegan Vegetable Enchiladas
Last night we tried our hand at Vegan Vegetable Enchiladas. The difference between these enchiladas and “traditional” enchiladas is the lack of meat and dairy. We substituted both with vegan alternatives. I’ll admit, the end result doesn’t look very pretty but it tasted amazing! These are packed full of vegetables and have incredible flavor. We replaced ground beef with chopped mushrooms, added additional vegetables, and used a vegan cheese that tastes very similar to provolone. If you did a blind taste test, I don’t think you would be able to tell the difference! The recipe can be found here. Start by preheating the oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9×13 baking dish with cooking spray. Add about ½ cup of the enchilada sauce to the bottom of the pan and spread around. I used canned enchilada sauce but feel free to use a homemade recipe if you have one. Next, … Continue reading

Fresh Vegetable Soup
Fresh Vegetable Soup is vibrant, hearty, and full of fresh, wholesome flavors. It’s perfect for lunches, cold winter nights, rainy nights, or anytime you are looking for a delicious homemade meal! This soup will fill you up without the “heavy, too full” feeling. The recipe can be found here. I like to use frozen corn because I think it tastes better than canned corn, but you can use either. If you are using frozen corn, start by cooking the corn according to package instructions. If you are using canned corn, drain and set aside. Next, chop the onion, carrot, tomato, bell peppers, and zucchini. Peel and chop the potato. Mince the garlic. I like to do all my prep work before I start cooking so it doesn’t slow me down once ready to assemble! Heat 2 Tbsp of olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. You will be … Continue reading

Vegan Vegetable Pot Pie
Vegan Vegetable Pot Pie is my new favorite dish! It’s a great comfort meal that’s packed with vegetables and a wonderfully flaky crust. Very cozy and delicious 🙂 The recipe can be found here. Start by making the Vegan Pie Crust. The recipe can be found here. Add the dry ingredients to a food processor and pulse a few times to mix together. Then add the butter and shortening to the food processor and mix together for about 10 seconds. The dough will be pretty flaky at this point. Slowly pour in the cold water while the food processor is running. The dough should start to clump together. Remove the dough to a flowered surface and use your hands to form the dough into a ball. Use a rolling pin to roll out a piece of pie crust large enough for a 12-inch pan. Place the crust in a pie … Continue reading

Sheet Pan Roasted Gnocchi & Veggies
Sheet Pan Roasted Gnocchi & Veggies is a great one-pan meal the whole family will love! It’s full of toasted gnocchi (store bought but still delicious), roasted fresh veggies, herbs, and a dusting of Parmesan cheese. It’s easy to throw together on a busy weeknight and is a meal that can be enjoyed year-round. The recipe can be found here. Start by preheating the oven to 425 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Chop the bell peppers and onion. You can use any color of bell pepper – it just makes the dish more colorful! You don’t need to slice the tomatoes. Peel the garlic cloves and place on a cutting board. Lay a knife sideways on top of the garlic and use the palm of your hand to press down and “smash” the garlic. If you would prefer to use minced garlic that is fine too! Add … Continue reading

Mediterranean Munchies
With the cold weather approaching, I thought it would be fun to make a Mediterranean based meal, and imagine I’m in warmer weather, perhaps sitting on a beach somewhere 🙂 I made Chicken Gyros with Tzatziki Sauce for the main course and served Mediterranean Layered Hummus on the side. Both are easy to make, flavorful, and healthy! Chicken Gyros with Tzatziki Sauce are filled with spiced chicken, fresh veggies, and a tangy homemade sauce, and are served on warm pita bread. The tangy homemade sauce is Tzatziki Sauce, which is a Greek yogurt-based sauce with cucumber and fresh herbs added. These gyros are incredibly tasty! Start by preheating the oven. While the oven preheats, prep the chicken. Place the chicken in a small baking dish and drizzle with olive oil. Use your hands to rub the olive oil over both sides of the chicken. Then sprinkle fresh minced garlic, paprika, … Continue reading

Lemon Orzo with Roasted Vegetables
Lemon Orzo with Roasted Vegetables is not your typical pasta salad. It’s packed with texture and flavor yet is very light and refreshing. It works well as a side dish or as a standalone meal. I think it’s best served warm but room temp or chilled is also fine, it’s all about your preference. The vegetables are delicious when roasted because they are slightly caramelized. I like to use bell pepper, asparagus, cherry tomatoes, and red onion but you can substitute any veggies you like – eggplant, zucchini, squash, mushrooms, etc. You can really make this your own by using the veggies you crave. You can also top this salad with pine nuts for a little crunch or some crumbled feta cheese. If you choose to skip the cheese, this is a great vegan based dish. Start by preheating the oven to 425 degrees and lining a baking sheet (or … Continue reading
