Chana Masala (plant-based, gluten-free)
A simple, healing, and inexpensive meal to put together when you don’t know what to make for dinner. Chick peas, warming spices, any veggies you have that need eating up, and a side of rice.
Dinner
Dinner tends to be our most adventurous meal of the day – exploring different cultures, eating styles, ingredients. Feel free to get creative. I hope you enjoy these plant-based dinner recipes! ❤️
African bean and tomato stew (plant-based, gluten-free)
In Madagascar, this bean and tomato stew is called tsaramaso malagasy. It’s a simple, aromatic, and inexpensive meal to throw together.
Really Good Dinner Rolls (plant-based)
Hot and fresh from the oven, these dinner rolls bring me back to my Italian grandmother’s kitchen. The recipe is inspired by a Chilean bread called pan amasado.
Cream of Asparagus Soup (plant-based, gluten-free)
I love the bright green color and velvety texture of this soup. When asparagus is in season (late spring/early summer in Canada), a vegan cream of asparagus soup is a quick and healthy meal to throw together.
Soppa tal-armla (plant-based)
This Mediterranean soup will comfort you on even the most challenging of days. Chick peas, pasta shells, a basket of vegetables and spices, and a pinch of love will do the trick.
Tofu Scramble with Greens (plant-based, gluten-free)
Tofu scramble is a super comforting, flexible, and nourishing meal that you can whip up in a few minutes at any time of day.
Baked Papa Rellenas (plant-based)
Imagine a handheld shepherd’s pie – chili-spiced (plant-based) meat and veggies, all wrapped up in a crisp coating of mashed potatoes.
Spiced African Beans and Greens (plant-based, gluten-free)
This delicious dinner of loso na madesu (spiced beans), rice, and hamli (spicy sauteed greens) is a joyful, nourishing taste of life in DRC and Ethiopia.
Fasolada Bean Soup (plant-based, gluten-free)
Fasolada tastes like eating lunch in a Greek grandmother’s kitchen. It’s fresh, hearty, and you can taste the love.
Locro de Papa, or Baked Potato Soup (plant-based, gluten-free)
The first thing I said when this soup touched my tongue was, “Wow, why haven’t I ever made this before?” It tastes like a loaded baked potato, but in a creamy velvety soup.
