The Smoothie Vegetarians

Hello everyone! We are going to wrap up this holiday recipe series with a traditional mash potato and gravy recipe. The issue with most gravy recipes is that they are almost always made with a meat broth or stock. I have found that this recipe is the best vegan friendly one I have come up with. The mushrooms give this recipe a “meaty” texture. I find that without adding some type of mushroom to it, the recipe is lacking flavor and texture. With this recipe, I encourage you to play around with it. Try it with garlic or onions. Pretty much every gravy recipe is the same at its core. Butter, flour, stock/broth. With such a flexible recipe one can’t help but have a little bit of fun with it! I hope all of you have a wonderful holiday season!

Hey guys! I wanted to take a moment to apologize for the lack of recipe posts last week. We had a lot going on all at the same time, I am sure most of you can relate! Over the next week, we are going to concentrate on bringing you recipes that will be perfect to share with your meat eating or veggie family and friends this holiday season.  This recipe actually came to me on accident. The other night I was talking to on of our writers, Dahlia, about the groceries I had just purchased. One of the things I had purchased on a whim was Brussel Sprouts. I had only had them one time before and was not a big fan. After asking Dahlia what how I should cook them,she said that her favorite way was to eat them with a honey mustard sauce. As yummy as this sounded, I no longer eat honey. So that is when it came to me, I would try to make with pure maple syrup instead. This is a replacement I use frequently for honey in recipes. After throwing it together, I thought how de...

Hey guys! As I am sure you guys all know it is almost time for the holidays. As a vegetarian, the Holidays can be particularly stressful. Over the next few months, we are going to work to bring you guys awesome recipes for the holidays that even the pickiest meat eaters will love! These dishes are going to be beautiful, delicious, full of nutrients and most importantly meat free! This stuffed butternut squash is a perfect replacement for your typical stuffing. If you do not have, or do not like quinoa you can replace it with brown rice. Also, this recipe is for two people but if you want to bring it to a family function you can use the entire squash, all you need to do is scoop out most of the flesh after roasting, just be sure to leave at least half an inch of flesh around the edge and you will need to reseason the part where you scooped out the flesh.  Now, let's talk about all of the awesome nutrients and vitamins this recipe is chalked full of! Butternut Squa...
