This veggie meat sauce is outrageously delicious! It tastes just like a ground turkey veggie Bolognese sauce except it's vegan! I use rehydrated TVP (Click here to see basic "recipe" to rehydrate dry TVP) and sauté it in extra virgin olive oil, with garlic and onions, along with 6 cups of any chopped veggies (WOW!) that you have on hand, and I mean any-- How simple is that?! ...

Turnip Potato in Currant Wine Glaze
I have long loved my classic Currant Wine Glazed Chicken which was one of the very first recipes I created 20 some years ago. It's reminiscent of the rich flavors of a coq au vin, tangy and sweet at the same time, and everyone I have served this dish to absolutely raves about it! It occurred to me that I should try to recreate it for my vegan guests too...and so here you have ... Read More »
Seared Black Rice & Beans (Vegan)
If you like traditional beans and rice, you will absolutely LOVE this seared black rice & beans recipe! The black rice (also called forbidden rice--here is why) just adds a nuttiness and almost meati-ness to this dish and because the rice is pan-seared in olive oil with the onions, garlic and fresh tomatoes before you add the liquid to it, it has that slightly ...

Kabocha Squash Gratin
Kabocha squash looks like a small pumpkin with dark green skin (scroll down for a picture). It's sweet with a slightly nutty taste and its texture is like a cross between a sweet potato and a pumpkin. Its nutrition is superb! I have to admit I had never even attempted to cook or bake with it before (it was a little too intimidating for me!) but it found its way into my CSA ... Read More »
Red Potato Provençal
So simple to throw together and absolutely delightful! The red potatoes just simmer with the fresh tomatoes, onions and herbs in the oven for an hour and the result is this almost caramelized hearty dish! It is important to use red potatoes for this Red Potato Provençal recipe because they will not fall apart and just stay intact to soak up the wonderful sauce! 5.0 ... Read More »
Curry Spinach Chickpea Salad
This vegetarian salad reminds me of the makings of a typical creamy chicken salad, with grapes and celery and walnuts...except without the chicken or the mayo!! Instead, I use chickpeas and my simply spinach dip with a little curry as its creamy dressing. The result is deliciously filled with nutrients and is very satisfying! Try this yummy Curry Spinach Chickpea Salad the ... Read More »
Sweet Brown Rice Butternut Squash Risotto
Nothing like a rich-tasting risotto for comfort food! Of course this is no typical risotto because this one will also love you back, so double comfort here!! The sweetness of the butternut squash blends beautifully with the brown rice and the simmering white wine (listen in the little clip below to that wonderful sizzling sound as I pour the wine ....ahhhhhh!). Then, a touch ... Read More »
10 Veggies Lasagna
2 layers of wholegrain lasagna stuffed with a MOUND of veggies (take a look at the little video clip below!) in a light béchamel sauce and topped with a simple marinara sauce and a sprinkle of Gruyère cheese (remember, a little goes a long way!). I have upgraded the béchamel sauce, Cuisinicity style, of course! It is free of saturated fats (I also give you a dairy-free soy ... Read More »
Eggplant Chickpeas & Raisins
This is definitely a feel-good for your soul kind of dish...at least it is for me! It reminds me of a North African dish we used to make for the Jewish holidays when I was a little girl (except it also had chicken). The fresh ginger and blend of sweet spices and raisins simmer slowly with the eggplant and thinly sliced onions resulting in an absolutely luscious sauce! I love ... Read More »
Mediterranean Barley Stew
This is the vegetarian (or vegan, depending on the wine you use) version of my classic Turkey Bean Pot-au-feu! It has all those wonderful Provençal flavors of red wine, garlic, onion, tomato, carrots, cannelini beans and herbes de Provence (of course!), but I use barley instead! My goodness....yum... it fills my kitchen with those wonderful aromas when I make it, much to the ... Read More »
