Creamy Mashed Cauliflower (V) (GF) & Roasted Scallops

This creamy delectable creamy cauliflower mash is very much fluffy and creamy like the good ole’ mash potatoes I used to eat back in the day in Michigan! It brought back all of those feelings as a kid wanting to slather those things in butter and I could practically eat 2-3 servings of nothing but mashed potatoes and leave all the other food behind. It was a huge hit at our house growing up.

You can take the girl out of the Midwest, but you cant take the Midwest out of the girl!

I did my best to recreate these in the most creamy and delectable way I could to emulate the joy I had eating those mashed potatoes as a kid.

Loaded Veggie Lasagna (GF)

started making veggie lasagna probably 6 years ago when I really started eating plant based and incorporating all the veggies I could into my diet. From that initial lasagna to the current one I’ve gone through several variations and the best thing about it is you can play with it and try seasonal veggies and add noodles, keep them out, anything goes here.

Whether you’re making this for yourself or your kids you’ll find that tastes vary and depending on what veggies you like or what veggies your kids will eat, just keep mixing it up and trying new things.

Meals Under 20 Min: Pesto Shrimp & Zucchini Pasta

If there's anything that can be created in less than 20 minutes, I'm in! How about you? I mean, most days I barely have time to get myself together let alone cook an extravagant meal with 10,000 ingredients. Don't get me wrong I love cooking! And I don't mind taking the time, SOME DAYS. However, generally speaking I'm rushing just like most of you!

Because we want to eat clean, and usually in the evening I'm trying to cook meals that are primarily veggies with protein. I love shrimp because its easy to make and it goes with so many things! I get the frozen wild shrimp often at Whole Foods or Trader Joe's - but it can be purchased anywhere. The key is to look for the wild stuff. By letting it set out for a few hours or keeping it in the fridge the night before is a great way to de-thaw it without having to think about it.
