It's been getting busier and busier since the coronavirus outbreak has been ramping up. Now I'm working weekends so I need to have meals that are quick and healthy. Just because you may be busy, doesn't mean that you can't eat healthy. One of the reasons I do this blog is to help others with [...]

Lentil Ghee Roast
This week I am doing a brand new recipe. One that is based off of Chicken Ghee Roast. It's basically chicken roasted in a lovely butter based Indian masala. I wanted to make my own version using a lentil roast made into meatballs. Tony has asked me to lay off the tofu this week, so [...]
Vegan Swedish Meatballs
I was inspired to find a vegan Swedish meatballs recipe by one of my favorite YouTube Chefs: Alex the French Guy. Alex is a...french guy. He lives in France and mixes his engineering talents with cooking. Alex is publishing a series on making the perfect meatball. Not just perfect tasting, but perfectly shaped. On his [...]
Vegan Haluski
I had never heard of Haluski until this week. I was watching a clip from Diners, Drive-ins and Dives from the Food Channel and came across a simple dish called Haluski. The version of haluski on the show was made from egg noodles, onions, bacon and cabbage. It sounded interesting. So I decided to see [...]
Zuppa Toscana
This week's recipe was inspired by watching a video by Laura Vitale from Laura in the Kitchen. She did a Zuppa Toscana recipe that looked great, but there was a lot of fatty meat in it and lacked vegetables. I wanted to make a healthier vegetarian version that would give you all of the comfort [...]
Creamy Paprika Tofu
I decided to go for comfort food this week. A nice creamy dish that make me happy and reminds me of what mom used to make. Alexandra Barnett at Taste of Home had a recipe for Paprika Pork that reminded me a lot of Chicken Paprikash. I decided to make my own take on this [...]
Koshari
Chock this up to another dish that I have never heard of before. While I was watching yet another YouTube video on the treadmill, I saw Koshari. Koshari is the national dish of Egypt. With all of the Middle eastern food I eat, I am surprised that I have never heard of this. I found [...]
Vegan Chickpea Fritatta
Since I did a holiday meal last week, I decided to give the big cooking a rest this week. Something simple and vegetarian. That's when I came across a recipe from the MyFitnessPal Hello Healthy Blog for Vegan Chickpea Fritatta. I love fritatta and it's an easy way to use up ingredients. The recipe was [...]
A vegetarian low sodium holiday meal
I decided to make a second holiday meal this year that was for sure healthy, vegetarian, low sodium and dairy free. The bad part of other people cooking for you is that they may not understand the intricacies of your diet. For example, my sister in law made these wonderful chicken bites. She did everything [...]
Vegetarian Extra Dirty Rice
I was watching YouTube for recipes, as I often do, and I ran across a recipe from Foodwishes called Dirty, Dirty Rice. Chef John said he likes his rice extra dirty. Now dirty rice gets its dirtiness from liver and pork. I know most people are not fans of liver. I'm weird because I only [...]
