I’ve been on a wild rice kick lately. I just finished making a big pot of this Instant Pot Wild Rice Soup and now I’m making a wild rice salad to take to a (socially distanced, outdoor) holiday dinner. In spite of being served cold, wild rice and roasted beets make this a hearty salad that is definitely suitable for winter and holiday meals.
The snow is falling here in Utah and it’s finally starting to look like Winter. This means that I just want to stay inside, keep warm and eat soup…every day. I only recently started using the Instant Pot for soups and it’s been a major game changer. This wild rice soup comes together quickly and easily. You really just throw everything together and forget about it while it cooks. Then, 30 minutes later…SOUP!
I made a batch of these veggie burgers yesterday. I promptly ate a couple of them like cookies (because I just didn’t have the energy for much else) and put the rest in the freezer for future meals. There are plenty of store bought veggie burgers out there but making your own is easy! It’s also inexpensive and you can make a big batch to save for future meals. There are days when I just don’t have it in me to make a meal from scratch (see the above example of me eating veggie burgers like cookies for proof of this). Being able to quickly heat up a veggie burger from the fridge or freezer is a dream.
This plant based pesto belongs in your meal prep rotation. You can serve it as a dip with crackers and vegetables or as a sauce with pasta, steamed veggies or just about anything. And, of course, it’s great on PIZZA!
Peanut sauce is so good. You can dip salad rolls or veggies in it or you can combine it with steamed or stir fried veggies and rice or noodles for an easy but amazing meal. This peanut sauce is gluten free, soy free, oil free and free of refined sugar. But, wait…there’s more. With a couple easy alterations, this sauce is suitable for those following an anti-inflammatory or elimination diet. This may not seem like a big deal. However, if you are following these diets you know that finding an easy, delicious sauce to add to your meal rotation is a big deal.
This coconut milk curry is a year round staple for me. It’s something I can usually pull together without a trip to the store. You can make it with whatever vegetables you have on hand and it’s a great entree to meal prep in advance. It can be served on top of your favorite grain but I encourage you to try it with this turmeric spiced rice for a colorful meal.
You already know that I love snacks. Kale chips are a favorite. Like these kale chips, this recipe is raw, gluten free, soy free and oil free. These lemon tahini snacks are a great option for you if you are avoiding nuts.
Fall weather = soup! This creamy broccoli and kale soup is quick to make. It freezes well and is great for winter meal prepping. Relying on cashews instead of dairy, this soup is suitable for those following a vegan, dairy-free, soy-free and whole foods plant based diet.
These curried red lentils are vegan, gluten free, soy free and have an oil free option. They are a regular meal at my house and this recipe is a great one for your meal prep rotation. I like to make a pot of lentils to …
