  • Soft Tacos with Green Chard, Caramelized Onions, and Queso Fresco

    These delicious tacos from Mexican Everyday are filled with a mixture of caramelized onions and sauteed green chard — definitely a departure from the norm for us!

  • Broccoli and Tempeh Rice Bowl

So we started off with tonight’s soup, adapted from a recipe in Veganomicon: The Ultimate Vegan Cookbook. This recipe is chock full o’ shrooms, makes the house smell fantastic, and best of all, is extremely easy […]

  • Honey Vanilla Ice Cream

This recipe came from… well, the manual for the ice cream maker. 🙂 [donotprint] Chris S. says: I scream… Cathy says: You scream… Chris says: We all […]
