Oh, I know how you love shrimp and grits so much! But as I’ve moved away from the Pescatarian life and into the simple stated, “plant based” life I’ve decided to try some new things. This is one of them. This was quick and easy. It has to be on Sundays because I made it…

Sweet Plantain & Black Bean Stew
If you have been following me you know I love sweet plantains. I add plantains to both breakfast and dinner meals all the time. Plantains are nutrient-filled fruit that provide many vitamins and minerals, and are always a great substitute for rice or potatoes. If I am not feeling like potatoes or rice I definitely use…
Shepherd’s Pie with Mashed Sweet Potato & Veggie Crumbles
Shepherd’s Pie was always a fave of mine growing up. We all know the basics was ground beef with veggies smothered by mashed potatoes. In eating plant-based as an adult, I decided to feed my craving for this dish and switch it up a bit. This isn’t new as I researched to see whose made…
Breakfast Stuffed Sweet Plantain
This happened this morning. I’m sorry Vegans, but eggs have been tough to part with. I don’t eat them in access so I feel I’ll survive, lol. On another note, I grew up eating fried, sweet plantains. I love them. As a kid I’d eat a whole order of plantains from a Dominican or Jamaican…
Sweet Potato Taco Bowls
I’m a taco lover! Wrapped or naked, I love a taco. I’ve been loving Buddha bowls and decided why not make a taco Buddha bowl. Not familiar? Buddha bowls are pretty much colorful bowls usually composed of vegetables, healthy grains, and protein — they’ve become one of this year’s or I should said last year’s…
Thai Green Chickpea Curry
This is a vegan dish that is not only tasty, but nutritious! This dish is filled with fiber, protein, and iron. I love making curry dishes, but this is actually my first time making green curry. I typically make Thai red curry or Caribbean curry dishes. I did a little research to find out what…
Vegan Thai Lemongrass Coconut Curry Soup
All you need to know was that this was deeeeeeelicious and so quick and easy to prepare. It literally took me 15 minutes to prep and 15 minutes to cook. I’m currently doing intermittent fasting where I am fasting 16 hours a day and have a 8 hour window where I eat. My dinner time…
Pesto Lasagna Rolls
The first time I ever had lasagna rolls was at Olive Garden. I absolutely loved them. I honestly thought it would be something hard to make, but it wasn’t at all. I really enjoyed preparing this recipe. I am proud of myself for being able to craft together lasagna rolls which in the end meant…
Roasted Peppers Stuffed with Yellow Squash and Rice
This was a great recipe. I enjoyed adding squash to this. If you read my previous posts like Quinoa & Brown Rice Stuffed Peppers, Pep it up!, Stuffed Eggplant | La Dolce Vita, and more you will see I love recipes with peppers, stuffed peppers, or just something stuffed, lol. Eating clean never has to be boring. Most of…
Lentil Rice Curry
Let’s talk about Lentils. If you are a vegan or vegetarian you are probably familiar with your legumes, beans, and the like. Lentils are also referred to as an “edible pulse.” They are packed with nutrition as they are high in protein and high in fiber. Lentils are also quick and easy to cook compared…
Mediterranean Torta
This was soooo good. I was skeptical at first when I thought about the combination of ingredients, but it definitely worked well. This is one of those quick and easy meals that you can throw together after work. The textures are awesome here. I loved the crunch from the french onions but the mediterranean taste really…
Four-Pepper Black Bean Fajitas
I love tacos and if you have been following my blog you know I love cooking with peppers. This Four-Pepper Black Bean Fajitas recipe is simple and not time-consuming. It only required cooking peppers and onions and blending the ingredients for the black bean. I have actually made this before a long time ago, but…
