Vegan Health & Lifestyle Coach
With both What the Health and Okja streaming on Netflix, I’ve had a lot of people tell me that they’ve switched to a plant-based diet or have decided to go vegan. Since it’s a new way of cooking, starting off can be a little difficult. Even armed with a shelf full of vegan cookbooks, mealtime…
Drenched in a crave-worthy creamy cashew dressing, this Roasted Cauliflower Salad will have you coming back for seconds! It seems like lately I’ve been creating salad recipes mainly as a vessel for sauces. I made a Wedge Salad mainly because I wanted something to pour buttermilk-style dressing over, and I created a Roasted Carrot Salad…
Beans, beans the magical fruit, the more you eat… Do to their affects on our digestive system, beans, pulses, and legumes sometimes get a bad rap, but they’re some of the most nutrient dense foods available so they’re a beneficial food to include in your diet. They’re also incredible versatile, so you can eat them…
Full of fall flavors, this Farro Salad with Apples and Pecans will help ease you in the upcoming season. I was recently perusing the aisles at Trader Joe’s and I came across a package of 10-minute farro. I used to make farro salad quite often, but somehow it fell out of my meal rotation. I…

Skip the PB&J! These vegan sandwiches are far more creative – not to mention much tastier – and are perfect for back to school lunches! Back to school season is upon us! I’ve been seeing posts about kids going back to school on Facebook for a few weeks now, but here in New Jersey the first day of…
Don’t put that grill away! Summer isn’t over yet. This vegan Grilled Wedge Salad is the perfect light meal for warm evenings, and it makes a great appetizer, too.
