EGG, AVOCADO & CHEESE TOAST
This toast also makes a delicious lunch or simple dinner if you just can’t fathom such a savory meal first thing in the morning. I love it topped with some hot sauce! The cheese is optional, it’s great without it. Anytime of the day, just make sure you eat this soon!

Organic Energy Bites
These were a big hit at my house! Even the hubby who proclaims he HATES coconut loved them. They reminded me of peanut butter fudge. YUM!!

Meatless Entrees
Crispy Parmesan Cauliflower Steaks
You can serve these steaks with a variety of sauces, dressings and pestos—marinara orgremolata would be delicious—but I stuck with the original recipe’s suggestion of serving with lemon wedges. A squeeze of lemon juice and a sprinkling of fresh herbs is all these steaks need.

PANKO BAKED AVOCADO TACOS
These would make an excellent new take on Mexican night, or served as is with salsa for more of a “chip and dip” situation. You really can’t go wrong with these buttery, crispy dream boats.

Kale Rice Bowl
You can certainly take this bowl in many different directions if you like. In place of the za’atar, try a different spice blend.

one-pot peanut sesame noodles & veggies
All of the ingredients–dried pasta, veggies, seasonings–go into a big pot with what looks like an impossible amount of liquid. Everything’s brought to a boil, then you toss (and toss and toss) it in the pot while it bubbles away. It’s not unlike a stir-fry of sorts, in that it cooks quickly over high heat—with lots of hands-on time while it boils. But it takes very few minutes to go from raw to “dinner’s ready!”

Vegan Vanilla Ice Cream
- Pie, of course, like this vegan blueberry one. (And a more seasonally appropriate apple-cranberry, coming soon!)
- What would be better than a (vegan) chocolate-chocolate cake?
- How about a vegan berry brownie? Sundaes, anyone?
