Day 362. In preparation for following along with Kelly’s Get Real series in 2012, I decided I really need to pin down a homemade Italian sausage crumbles recipe made with whole food that I’ll like. Italian sausage is one of those things that I never really ate, but I hear such good things about it […]

Vegetable Beef Soup {Vegan}
Day 326. In the pre-kid days, I used to make this easy vegetable beef soup for my husband and I with canned tomato soup, veggies and frozen beef crumbles. It was incredibly simple and a nice, fast weeknight recipe. But, because of the HFCS, I don’t use canned tomato soup for meals the kids are […]

Beef Broccoli Pizzadillas Ingredients 1/2 cup broccoli florets, finely […]
Spaghetti with Meat Sauce {Vegan}
Day 310. I’m having a super lazy day today, still recovering from that sore throat, so I decided dinner had to be really simple. And it just so happens to be a favorite for the entire family. This simple version is a regular in our lunchtime rotation and we sometimes have it for dinner, paired […]
Vegan Taco Bar

So we serve our taco bars with multiple proteins, multiple toppings choices and multiple shell choices […]
