My recent cooking experiments have led me to believe that there is something super comforting about eating warm food in a big beautiful bowl. As nutritious and refreshing as raw salads are, winter is a time that many of us crave and can truly benefit from incorporating more warm, cooked meals into our eating. Although hearty pasta dishes and soups are…
Quick and Easy Holiday Chocolate Rounds
It’s that time of year again! Chilly weather, holiday music, light displays, festivities with family and friends, lots of shopping, and of course, plenty of baking! Christmas cookie baking has always been my favorite holiday activity. I remember the excitement I felt as I helped my mom roll and cut cookie dough when I was very…
Autumn Harvest Quinoa
Autumn. Nothing beats the natural beauty of its vibrant foliage, crisp air, and, most importantly, seasonal produce. From spiced pumpkin baked goods to stuffed acorn squash, it is rare for me to go very long without cooking seasonal produce during the fall. Although it is difficult to choose, I would have to say that butternut…
Natural Nut/Seed Butter Cups
With Halloween fast approaching, I am brought back to the many trick-or-treating memories I have from my childhood. Halloween was like a major holiday for my family. We (my parents, cousins, aunts, and uncles) all gathered at my grandparents’ house, took pictures in our costumes, exchanged simple gifts (mostly candy), went trick-or-treating, and then finished the night…
Massaged Kale Salad

Whole Grain Blueberry Pancakes
Pancakes are one of those foods that just scream comfort. They really bring me back to the excitement I felt years back when I would wake up to the aroma of fluffy cakes cooking away on a hot pan, waiting to be devoured. These pancakes are light, fluffy, and hearty all at the same time. The combination of whole…
Create. Nourish. Love. What each word means to me.

The name of this blog came to me as a random compilation of some of the inspirational words that are the most relevant to my life. This is a personal, somewhat-lengthy post to explain what exactly each word means to me.Create. Creativity has…
Oven Roasted Chickpeas
Today I am going to share a super delicious and simple snack recipe that features one of my absolute favorite ingredients- chickpeas! Also known as garbanzo beans, these lovely little legumes are incredibly versatile. I love finding new ways to eat them, and have used them as the star ingredient to many of my recipes,…
Basic Veggie and Bean Burgers
Even before becoming a vegan, I always had a fascination with veggie burgers. One thing that I learned from taste-testing them at numerous restaurants through the years is that no one veggie burger tastes the same because they all contain different combinations of ingredients.
