This hearty tomato and rice soup is an easy and budget-friendly dinner idea! With just a few pantry staples, this recipe comes together quickly. I’ve made lots of variations of tomato soup over the past year or two, but the addition of brown rice takes it from a side dish to the main dish….
Gluten Free
Kale and Quinoa Salad
Wednesday nights are quickly becoming my favorite weeknight. Alex and I have small group bible study with some friends from church, and we start every meeting off with a meal together. There is something about eating dinner around a big table that just brings people together. Of course, there is an added challenge of a…
Vegan Tempeh Tostadas
There is a restaurant to blame for this post. Specifically the French Meadow in Minneapolis which served me one of the best tempeh dishes my little mouth has ever tasted. (See the photo here.) I was glad I tried it, because it inspired this dinner. This recipe is both vegan and gluten-free, so hopefully you…
Gluten Free Zucchini Lasagna
For everyone that is jealous of your friends with their fancy spiralizers, making lots of zucchini noodles… This recipe is for you. It’s a great way to sub zucchini for pasta- no spiralizer required! Apparently, the options for zucchini are basically endless. Seriously, search “Zucchini” on Pinterest if you don’t believe me. So after making…
Black Bean and Sweet Potato Enchiladas
I’m really blessed. That has very little to do with the enchilada recipe I’m about to share with you, but I think it’s important to take a minute out of the day, and just reflect on how lucky we all are. I’m loving life, and even though it’s been a little hectic and crazy, I’m…
Stuffed Spaghetti Squash
I think I’m finally back in the swing of things. The past few days were a bit of a whirlwind, as my nephew entered the world, and my parents came to visit (plus the day trip to DC on Saturday) so it was nice to just relax at home last night. When life gets crazy,…
Apple Pie Granola
I’m glad I had a recipe prepared and ready to go for today, because this weekend has been a little bit crazy. Friday night, I got a text from my brother to come to the hospital, because my little nephew was on his way! Alex and I got to the hospital and a couple of…
Easy Zucchini Pizza Boats
I have no idea how the weekends fly by as quickly as they do, but luckily I managed to squeeze in quite a bit of activity. After seeing The Head and the Heart in concert on Friday, (Alex got a sweet picture “with” the lead singer of the opening band) we spent Saturday at the…
Vegetarian Mexican Lasagna
I’m not sure why I hadn’t thought to try this before. But I’m pretty happy the light bulb went on. I love finding new ways to use ingredients I always have on hand, and this recipe is a fun twist on the TVP tacos I’ve been loving lately. It’s also helping my grocery budget, since…
What I Ate [to stay warm] Wednesday
![What I Ate [to stay warm] Wednesday](https://iheartvegetables.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/open-faced-quesadillas-300x200.jpg)
On Sunday evening, Richmond got quite a few inches of snow, so Monday I decided to work from home and avoid the roads. It’s nice working from home, because I have a real camera to take pictures with 😉 So here a quick look at what I ate on Monday: Breakfast My roommate was sleeping…
