Meet Candice: The Edgy Veg

Now here's a girl that knows how to take the hippy, tree hugger, rabbit food, vibe right out of being vegan! 

Candice has a blog named The Edgy Veg and a youtube channel too! I just saw her recipe for Vegan Kale "Doritos!" HOLY COW! I can't wait to try them. Her site is fun and light hearted. Just had to share her with you all. You'll find tons of inspiration.

Or how about this one for some Meatlessly Mouthwatering homemade Vegan Plant based Bacon. Yes I just said Bacon! (you'll never guess what veggie she used)

Sushi with Butternut Squash, Basil & Cream Cheese

Butternut, Basil, Cream Cheese & Cashew Sushi

I LOVE SUSHI!!!  There are so many combos and this one can easily set off a brainstorm of ideas. My thoughts for basic good sushi combos are:

1. Something crunchy.
2. Something soft.
3. Something BOLD flavored. (but only use a tiny bit)
4. Something subtle flavored. (you can use more)
5. Something colorful.

From there you can add:

Something salty.

Something sour.

Something sweet.

Something bitter.

Always try to

Crystal Bernard - Her Recipes for Healthy Changes

Crystals four cute kids :-)

Today I'm not going to share a recipe for creating a meatlessly mouthwatering dish. Instead, with her permission, I am going to share with you an e-mail that I received the other day from my amazing cousin Crystal. It's her inspiring story of great steps she's made recently to improve the health and lives of herself, her family and in a way the community around her. You might say it's her recipes for healthy changes. As you read her story I know you will be inspired to make even more healthy changes in your life!

Unleavened Bread - Passover Meal

No matter if you celebrate a Passover or not (I don't but I enjoy the meal every year), you will find this tasty flat bread a treat to have! I make a simple passover meal each year that I usually share with my family and a friend or two. The meal consists of Bitter Greens, Unleavened Bread, Red Wine and Lamb. This year I decided to go with a Vegan version and use marinated grilled Portobello mushrooms instead of lamb. We had one of our best friends, Alex and her two boys Colby & Hudson, over to enjoy it with us.

This first video is for the Unleavened Bread. Enjoy!

Squash, Chickpea & Red Lentil Stew

So this week I finally got to try a recipe that one of my coworkers at the Hospital Lab had given to me. She's not Vegetarian, Vegan or plant-based but, she knows that I am. And she was just going on about how good this stew was. So, whenever a 'meat-eater' gives me a plant-based recipe and they are excited about it I just

Lemon Cashew Cream Sauce:The Wishy Washy Vegan Kid!

This is my 10 year old daughter, and I'm so proud of her for so many reasons. But today I was so happy to see that when I had come home from work today she had made her very first Lemon Cashew Cream Sauce to serve over Gnocchi! So seeing as this is her's, instead of posting the recipe here on "Meatlessly" I will share the link to her blog (monitored and co-authored by mom ;-) ) where she can tell you all about it. (just click the linked words "The Wishy Washy Vegan Kid!" below)

Oh one note: I'd suggest thinning the sauce down a bit with some of the hot pasta water, as the recipe comes out a little thick. Most of this is made in the blender so that should make it really easy :-)
