“Wings” made from cauliflower are pretty popular around Super Bowl time to replace the non-version wings that are served up at all the parties. I’m a couple of months late for the Super Bowl, so maybe these can be Easter wings??? In my opinion, cauliflower wings are perfect any time of the year, including these buffalo cauliflower bites. They have just the right amount of tang and spiciness. They are also very filling, which causes a quandary because they are so delicious it is hard to stop eating them! Check out my brand new recipe video below for these tasty little bites ๐Ÿ’ƒ

So, I tried to make baked tostones, but I sliced them too thin and didn’t mash them, so I ended up with plantain chips! Still delicious, but very different from the original tostones. Plantains look like bananas and are in the same family, but do not contain as much sugar and are not eaten raw like bananas. When cooked, however, they are delicious! These plantain chips are crunchy, slightly browned, with a thin coat of olive oil and salt, and go great with guacamole!!

Vegan Cream Cheese with Dill Crackers

When I made this recipe, I took the leftover green onions that I didn’t use and put them in my compost pile. Well, a few months later, a completely new green onion plant grew from it! It reminded me how delicious this recipe was and that I needed to post it. I looked up a few different vegan cream cheese recipes online and incorporated ideas from all of them to create this recipe. The result? A smooth, creamy cheese that is perfect for a party, get together, appetizer, or just a snack. The dill crackers go with this dish perfectly, and they are so easy to make! Let’s get crackerin’! See what I did there?

Y’all, it’s actually cold in South Texas! โ„๏ธโ˜ƒ๏ธ

It’s been cold and rainy off and on these past couple of weeks, and we even got snow one morning! I’ve been drinking lots of homemade hot chocolate and snuggling with my foster dog, Opal. Then I remembered this warm, hearty soup I made not too long ago and thought it would be the perfect recipe to post.

This delish soup is my version of Kimberly Snyder’s Red Lentil and Carrot Stew. When it comes to soups and stews, I like to keep it simple, and I’m not a big fan of cooked carrots, so I changed things up just slightly. Make this savory soup for your friends and family, or store in the fridge and have ready made meals! Full of nutrients, fiber, and protein, this Red Lentil & Kale Stew is the perfect cold weather meal!
