NEW: A Salad I WANT to Eat Every Day!
|
Hi Reader, I am in LOVE with this salad! I don't even know what to say, other than... you have to try it. 😍 I don't care about trends, but even I've noticed bulgur has been having a rather long 15 minutes of fame thanks to Jennifer Aniston and her favorite salad. As we move toward fall, I thought it would be fun to do a bulgur salad with seasonal veggies. But instead of the usual suspects, like roasted sweet potatoes or squash, I wanted to stick with the good old standbys that can be eaten raw – carrots, celery, cauliflower, and arugula. Since there's nothing to cook (other than bulgur, which is quick), the salad comes together in no time and manages to be light and refreshing while still feeling festive! Bonus: swap quinoa for bulgur to make it gluten-free!
The dressing is a simple orange vinaigrette that pairs really well with cranberries and the mild, nutty flavor of bulgur. I intended to experiment with an oil-free version this week, but time got away from me! If you want to replace the olive oil, I have a feeling 2-3 Tbsp of tahini plus a little extra orange juice will taste amazing. More Hearty Salads

Hi Reader, Do you get excited about Halloween? I've never been much into it. No particular reason, other than I'm kind of lazy about holidays, in general. 😅 As a kid, obviously I loved it! Because candy. 😍 Plus, since we don't have children, there's never been much of a reason to get involved with the festivities. But this year, I decided it's ridiculous that after 7 years of blogging I didn't have a single Halloween-themed recipe! So I decided to create a few... There's these Black Cocoa...
Hi Reader, Writing an email subject line that starts with "dirt" feels really weird. 😅 So let me back up... are you familiar with dirt cake (aka "dirt cups" when served in individual portions)? Basically, the classic version of this dessert consists of crushed Oreo cookies (the dirt), layered with a creamy concoction of instant pudding mix, Cool Whip, powdered sugar, and cream cheese. People love it because it's: a) delicious, b) easy to make, and c) fun to decorate in all kinds of ways!...
Hi Reader, It's no secret, I have a thing for chili. 💘🙌 But not just any old vegan chili. I like it thick and seriously flavorful. I like the kind of chili that you can feel confident serving to both vegans and meat-eaters alike. The kind of chili that's so robust and satisfying, people turn to you and say, "THIS is vegan?" The kind of chili that has everyone asking for the recipe! 👍 Instant Pot Sweet Potato Chili Packed with all the good stuff! Lentils, beans, sweet potato, jalapeno, and...
