It’s easy make a big batch of these little vegetarian black bean tacos in the oven for a party appetizer or quick weeknight dinner! They’re packed with flavor and drizzled with creamy chipotle sauce for little elote flavor.
This delicious and smooth beet soup is as tasty as it is gorgeous! It’s fruity and earthy and is served with a sweet apple-fennel slaw. I included directions for Instant Pot, slow cooker, and stove top! Have I ever told you that my favorite color is beet? I love the deep, purple-y fuchsia of a …

The fact that it’s vegan was totally an accident. If you’ve spent more than 5 minutes …
I’ve got a great little soup for you today that my husband decided tasted like queso. I’m not above eating queso with a spoon, but when it’s in soup form, it’s more socially acceptable.
You know I love me a good salad. I also love bacon. And hard-boiled eggs. And candied nuts. Blackberries are probably my favorite berry, too. Making this salad dressed in maple dijon vinaigrette was a no-brainer when I saw it in Mary Younkin’s book, The Weekday Lunches & Breakfasts Cookbook. I’ve got the recipe down …
