Potatoes are pretty magical, aren’t they?
You can mash ’em, fry ’em, bake ’em, scallop ’em…Hell, you can even throw ’em in a pot and make vegan loaded baked potato soup.

Vegan Eggplant Parmesan Sub Sandwiches
I love eggplant parmesan and I love sandwiches like, a lot, so I decided to marry the two so they could make a baby.
The outcome? The most delicious vegan eggplant parmesan sub sandwiches ever!

Vegan Menudo
My wife, Ashlee graduated from culinary school several years before we adopted a plant based diet. There, she mastered the art of cooking really good Mexican food. You name it and she can make it from scratch. It’s a talent I am extremely jealous of, but I’m learning along the way, and I’d like to think I can make some great Mexican Inspired dishes as well.
Among some of her amazing dishes, her menudo is my favorite.

Sweet Chili Habanero Glazed Cauliflower Wings
I know, I know…cauliflower wings have been “a thing” for quite some time now, but I’m barely jumping on the bandwagon.
To be honest, I was always skeptical of the idea of cauliflower mimicking a wing, but Ashlee made some delicious cauliflower wings a few weeks ago and my uncertainty of this popular vegan food trend immediately went away.

Vegan Beer Chili
Chili is one of those dishes that everyone loves. It’s so hearty and warming.
I’ve had plenty of bowls of chili in my lifetime and I have to say, Ashlee and my uncle still make the best.
In honor of the two best chili makers I’ve ever known, I combined their recipes and made a vegan beer chili to share with you all.
YOU’RE WELCOME.

Vegan Gumbo
Many of you probably don’t know this, but I spent many years living in Louisiana. Although I’ve spent most of my adult years living in California, I consider the Bayou state my home away from home and it’ll always have a special place in my heart.
If there’s one thing I miss most about Louisiana, it’s definitely the food! Cajun cuisine is unlike any other!…
Creamy Tomato Basil Soup
Finally! It actually feels like fall here in Central California and I couldn’t be happier!!!
As soon as the temperature dropped, Ashlee and I rolled a fatty, started a fire and made the biggest batch of creamy tomato basil soup known to man.
Don’t fret. I’ll share the recipe, so just keep on reading!

Fried Avocado Tacos with Jalapeno Slaw and Cilantro-Lime Crema
I have something to admit.
I don’t particularly love Thanksgiving food. I mean, it’s alright, but if you ask me, there’s a reason why people only prepare it once a year. Don’t get me wrong, pumpkin spice is nice, but a girl can only have so much!
Tacos, on the other hand, I will never get tired of. In honor of stuffing and cranberry sauce being retired until next Thanksgiving, we decided to celebrate with these fried avocado tacos!

Vegan Jalapeno Mac and Cheese
I have a love affair with mac and cheese. If I weren’t prone to gaining weight so easily, I’d eat it every damn day.
Not kidding.
With all the different variations of mac and cheese that can be made, I’m convinced anyone could live off of it their entire lives without complaint.

Grilled Vegan Caesar Salad
There’s something about Caesar Salads that I just absolutely love.
Especially when the lettuce is grilled.
You get the char from grilling it, but it’s still fresh and cold when you cut into it. Plus, it looks fancy as fuck. Serve these grilled vegan Caesar salads at any dinner party and you’ll be the star of the show.
