Loaded Banana Bread

May 13, 2019 by Gina +

Want an easy switch up to your usual breakfast? Load up some vegan chocolate chip banana bread. I usually go for a smoothie or eggs, but lately a thick slice of my favorite banana bread with all the toppings has been a nice switch a couple days a week. I make a loaf of the bread when I have a few extra ripe bananas, cut it into slices, and freeze. All I have to do then is heat up a piece when I

Salmon Tacos

April 25, 2019 by Gina +

We are on a big taco kick around here, and these salmon tacos are at the top of the list. It's all about the seasoning on the salmon combined with the freshness of the cabbage slaw. It's a tasty, fresh combo. Only a few ingredients and minimal cooking time makes it an easy, quick meal to throw together. I like to use these whole grain, spouted tortillas to keep it clean.

It's hard to believe it's really that simple clean while tasting so yummy. Roast cauliflower, potatoes, and garlic with herbs. Add to a pot with onion, coconut milk (promise it doesn't taste

Banana Mango Smoothie with Greens

March 2, 2019 by Gina +

This is such an easy breakfast or snack, but it's one of my favorite combos so I needed to get it posted. I absolutely love the banana and mango combo. Plus it masks the greens flavor so you can easily get in a handful or two of spinach for some vitamins and minerals. I always add a heaping spoonful of nut butter too. Other additions vary, but I'm currently adding this marine collagen for protein

One of my favorite ways to eat summer tomatoes 🍅 One of my favorite ways to eat summer tomatoes 🍅

Blistered cherry tomatoes, creamy white beans, cottage cheese and plenty of crusty sourdough. It’s simple, hearty, satisfying and has plenty of protein without feeling like a “high-protein” meal.

Here’s how I make it:

A big handful of cherry tomatoes
1 can white beans, drained and rinsed
Olive oil
Salt + pepper
Squeeze of fresh lemon
Good Culture cottage cheese @good_culture 
Toasted sourdough for serving

Heat a good drizzle of olive oil in a skillet and add the cherry tomatoes. Let them cook until blistered and starting to burst, then give them a light mash.

Add the white beans, season really well with salt and pepper and finish with a squeeze of lemon. Let everything warm together for a few minutes.

Spoon into a bowl, add plenty of cottage cheese on top and serve with toasted or crusty sourdough for scooping.

So simple. SO good.
Save this one for tomato season. 🍅🤍
