Versatile Vegan Appetizers

I’m excited to roll out two vegan and gluten-free appetizer recipes today—a Sweet Potato Cashew Dip and a Mushroom Pâté. You will no longer miss the traditional cheese ball once you have some delicious replacement treats!

Both of these dishes work perfectly as a dip for raw or roasted vegetables or a spread for crackers or bread. But don’t stop there! These versatile appetizers can also play a bigger role at your holiday table when you serve either or both as a side dish.

Variation on a Couple of Themes!

I’m betting that corn lovers who raved about my recent Bean & Corn Salad  will also love this easy Sweet Potato Soup with Crunchy Corn. What could be more delicious or Southern, for that matter, than combining sweet potatoes with the crunch of sweet corn to create a perfect summer dish!

The Last of Winter Soups

Wouldn’t you love some Sweet Potato and Spinach Soup to help you stay warm during these last frigid winter nights! Despite an early spring color extravaganza in the Carolinas since the first of February, we’ve been thrust back into the mid 30s every night—which means that hot soup is definitely on the menu!

Black-Eyed Peas Fives Ways for a Lucky 2023

As we turn our attention from Christmas to welcoming the new year, it seems fitting to offer yet another recipe for lucky black-eyed peas. Drumroll please… for African Black-Eyed Pea Stew!

It’s the rich peanut butter and spices that make this African style of cooking black-eyed peas so delicious—though that doesn’t mean spicy hot, at least not when I make it.

A Fresh Twist on Summer Soups

Get ready to try a unique summer recipe: Summer Sweet Potato Soup with red lentils and cucumbers. It may be a little difficult to imagine what this will taste like, but it’s received some good reviews in my neighborhood! Like the best summer soups, you can serve this dish slightly chilled or at room temperature.

Yes, I love watermelon soup and gazpacho, but Tom and I want a heartier meal at dinnertime so we can sleep through the night without waking up hungry at 3 a.m. So many summer soup recipes you find online look lovely and delicious—but read a list of the ingredients and you instantly know that they may be pretty to look at and quite tasty, but they’re not especially filling. From a culinary perspective, watermelon soup and gazpacho are like ’90s cliches, right alongside the movies Forrest Gump and Groundhog Day. Sweet but no longer intriguing!

Easy Elegance for Valentine’s Day

This Sweet Potato Soup with Pecan Butter may be the easiest soup recipe I’ve ever created with the inspiration of Goddess Annapurna—and it may also be the most delicious! You can make it in about 20 minutes if you’re handy with a knife and have Easy Vegetable Soup Stock on hand. If not, you may want to plan to make the stock over the weekend before a Valentine’s dinner…or before any meal when you want to savor something a little different and quite exquisite.

Potluck Picnics (and Some Good News about Lectins)

Earlier this week I began talking about summer salads, and today I offer you this Black Bean Salad with Avocado Dressing for your July 4th celebration and for ongoing summer picnics and potluck events.

In the past my go-to veggies to accompany most any black bean dish would have been red bell peppers and tomatoes, but now I find myself looking for something different.

Impressive Vegan Entrées

Today, I present you with a recipe for Baked Spaghetti Squash with Chickpeas & Veggies. Now that you may be starting to dine again with a few friends on occasion or meeting up with family you haven’t seen in more than a year, you might want a dish that impresses them with the delights of vegan cuisine. This entrée will wow them—even If I do say so myself!

Admittedly, this stuffed squash is a bit of a project. There is nothing difficult about it, but it has several steps, so plan to make this when you have a couple hours to relax and enjoy cooking.

This recipe takes advantage of my recently posted Asparagus & Sweet Potato Side, which becomes the filling of the scooped-out spaghetti squash boat.

A Sweet & Savory Soup for Valentine’s Day

As you plan an alluring vegetarian or vegan meal for Valentine’s Day, I invite you to sample this unique Savory Sweet Potato Soup with Mushrooms & Chocolate Swirl!  I owe its inspiration to one of my very favorite and utterly charming movies: Chocolat.

In the movie, the main character, Vianne (Juliette Binoche) opens a chocolate shop that is considered too great a temptation in a conservative French village. If you watch the movie, you’ll see amazing delicacies that will have you lusting after chocolate! One of the movie’s more memorable and talked-about scenes features a chocolate-themed luncheon that Vianne hosts for a friend’s birthday in which chocolate sauces accompany every dish. Her menu features a large turkey and a pork roast, though I’ve often wondered what that meal might look like for a vegetarian feast. Today’s sweet and savory soup is my attempt at the first course!
