It’s that time of year when we can officially switch from warm and hearty pasta dishes to light and fresh ones. And even pasta salads!
Penne with Swiss Chard + Lemon Ricotta

Smoky Black Bean Quesadillas
It can be “Taco Tuesday” every day with these Smoky Black Bean Quesadillas. Although, not technically a taco, this tasty recipe still satisfies that Mexican food craving. Bonus ~ these quesadillas are vegan and gluten-free, olé!
Green Chile Enchiladas
PSA, amigos: Mexican food can be healthy! Sharing my healthy “fresh Mex” tips here and a recipe for plant-based Green Chile Enchiladas with roasted sweet potatoes, black beans and homemade salsa verde.
Spaghetti with Mushroom “Bolognese”
This is my idea of ‘Sunday Sauce’ ~ Spaghetti with Mushroom “Bolognese”. It’s hearty, healthy, and the perfect dish to make on a Sunday… or any night of the week! It’s a 30-minute dish start to finish, and is easy to make.
And you can have dinner on the table in even less time if you batch cook the sauce on a Sunday and just boil some pasta when the craving hits midweek.
Spiced Lentil Soup
We all need more satisfying easy recipes in our life, and this Spiced Lentil Soup is just that type of recipe. It’s a one-pot soup that can be enjoyed as an appetizer yet is hearty enough for a meal. And using lots of spices and two kinds of lentils makes this even better than your average lentil soup! Continue Reading

I say “Taco Tuesday”, because these are sort of a hybrid between tacos (with all the yummy fillings and salsa), and fajitas with the sautéed peppers.
Elote Bowl
It’s that time of year ~ salad season and corn season, so I am taking full advantage of both with recipes like this Elote Bowl.
It’s made with chopped romaine lettuce, Mexican elote style corn, quinoa, black beans, radish, cucumber, pumpkin seeds, cilantro and the creamiest of creamy vegan lime-avocado crema dressings. Continue Reading
