"As a vadalia onion broker, I'm also trying to find new ways to serve those sweet onions to family, friends and customers," shares Libby Beese of St. Augustine, Florida. Their sweetness comes through nicely in these moist wedges. TIP: "Serve with soups and stews at dinner or with your favorite egg dishes at brunch," Libby recommends.

This Hummus Pasta is an easy, filling and delicious dinner fix! All you need is 5 ingredients, 20 minutes, and one pot to make this healthy and hearty main.
Now that we’ve got our pasta and sauce, it’s time to add in some veggies for extra flavor! I kept things pretty simple here with some sun-dried tomatoes and fresh parsley, but you could also enjoy it with:
Caramelized Onions, Mushrooms, & Thyme
Fresh Tomato, Kalamata Olives, & Basil
Roasted Broccoli and Nutritional Yeast
Basically, the possibilities are endless and it’s very easy to enjoy this dish year-round. Especially because you can serve it warm or chilled! It’s more reminiscent of a cream-based sauce when warm, but I also enjoy it as a hearty “pasta salad” when cold. The sauce helps to keep the pasta saucy without drying out, so it keeps well for picnics or meal prep.
Cool yogurt, crunchy seeds, and avocado turn lentils into a lunch salad you’ll actually be excited to eat. Serve it with warm pita for swiping up the garlicky yogurt. We have Heidi Swanson, the vegetarian cookbook author and blogger behind 101 Cookbooks, to thank for this lightning-fast weeknight dinner recipe.
Heidi Swanson, the vegetarian cookbook author and blogger behind 101 Cookbooks, is behind this hearty weeknight noodle bowl. The nutritional yeast acts like a vegan version of parm, adding a hit of umami flavor that plays well with bitter kale and earthy buckwheat noodles. We suggest using curly kale, which roasts into light, crispy chips, instead of Tuscan.
This is the perfect summertime breakfast/brunch recipe from Heidi Swanson, the vegetarian cookbook author and blogger behind 101 Cookbooks. Peak-season tomatoes along with chickpeas, toasted almonds, and harissa make for a complete flavor bomb in just one skillet. Keep in mind that harissa brands vary in spiciness. Start off with a smaller amount and build up to your preferred level of heat.
A handful of the tomatoes are cooked with scallions in the rice, while the rest are served on top. But the secret is generously salting the sliced tomatoes before cooking—it concentrates all that tomato flavor and lets out some of the liquid. We have Heidi Swanson, the author of 101 Cookbooks, to thank for this lightning-fast weeknight dinner recipe.

A deliciously light and sweet Banana Raspberry Bread with Dark Chocolate Chips. This healthy banana and raspberry bread recipe is one you’ll come back to again and again. Packed with nutritious whole grains, nuts, and dark chocolate, and sweetened entirely by fruit.
In my quest for the perfect banana bread, this time I set out to do something a little different. I wanted to create a banana bread with a bakery style, cakey texture that makes you feel like you were eating something a lot more decadent than just a slice of banana bread.
Enter the solution to every problem you didn’t even know you had yet: My Banana Loaf Cake.
It accomplishes it all. It’s fluffy and moist (sorry, I know) without being heavy, and has the perfect amount of chocolate chips to complement the banana. Not to mention its gluten-free, dairy-free, and has no refined sugar. It’s sweetened with just a bit of maple syrup and pulls most of its delicious sweetness from the ripe bananas.

The sweet potato’s thin skin puffs to a crisp finish and inside you’ll discover a sweet, pillowy flesh.
"Sweet Potato, onion, mushrooms, and chopped pecans are served over a bed of quinoa. This dish is perfect as a warm meal or side dish during cold weather."
I love to roast vegetables, and potatoes (and sweet potatoes) are some of my favorites to receive this treatment. The addition of green beans and garlic gives this dish a punch of green and a bit of a bite. I could eat this very happily with the catch-all salad and call it lunch.
I hope you’re ready for this one pot wonder Moroccan Chickpea Lentil Soup. It’s super easy, everyone can do and make this.
It’s hearty, satisfying, customizable, full of protein thanks to double power of lentils and chickpeas, and worthy to eat it everyday.
This Florentine Sauce is a must make for all your easy pasta recipes. It is also amazing just plain with bread. So yummy and easy to make it will become a family favorite in no time.
Florentine sauce is typically made with butter and cream, so it is obviously not dairy free or vegan. It is often served with chicken.
My 10 Minute Mediterranean Vegan Pasta recipe just takes 5 ingredients and 2 easy steps to make. Comes with an easy hummus sauce, is vegan and gluten free, and done in 10 minutes.
Typical ceviche (or cebiche), in its simplest form, is made by marinating pieces of raw fish or shellfish in acidic citrus juice. Other additions like chiles, vegetables, and herbs depend upon the country in which the ceviche is made.
Some interesting additions are corn, tomato sauce, olives, and seaweed. This version sticks to a classic preparation that includes tomatoes, avocados, cucumbers, onions, and cilantro, among other additions. The biggest departure, however, is the substitution of mushrooms for the fish.
These vegan stuffed mushrooms are all about big flavor and simple ingredients. Easy to make for your holiday party or anytime! Gluten free and low carb, too.
We add our cashews, nutritional yeast, miso paste, lemon juice, fresh lemon zest, water, salt, and refined coconut oil to a blender. Nutritional yeast is an inactive used that we use to give the cheese its cheesiness. It can be found in most health food stores, or you can just purchase it on Amazon. We use refined coconut oil without the coconut flavour to loosen the cheese to help with blending, but it then solidifies when refrigerated to help keep the cheese solid.
These mushrooms don't impart a whole lot of flavor but are enjoyed for their unique rubbery and gelatinous texture that adds a slippery yet pleasant crunch to dishes. They are also rich in dietary fiber, high in iron, and used in traditional Chinese medicine to help with blood circulation.
They are one of the key ingredients in a popular Buddhist vegetarian dish known as Buddha's Delight or Lo Hon Jai that is traditionally served by the Chinese in Malaysia during Lunar New Year and other festive occasions.
It is not difficult to make Buddha's Delight but finding all the ingredients may be challenging because this humble little massive dish (pardon the contradiction) usually calls for 15 to 20 ingredients! The mixture of ingredients may vary from recipe to recipe, but what makes it truly special are the different textures in every bite and that umami-strong flavor that comes from fermented soybeans.
This dark chocolate vegan pudding requires NO COOKING, and it's made with an unexpected surprise ingredient — avocado! It's absolutely delicious, just over 200 calories, high in protein, low in sugar and takes only 5 minutes to make. It was inspired by a recipe by chef Matthew Kenny.
What the lime is to Mexico, the yuzu is to Japan: a versatile citrus whose bumpy rind and juice are used in all kinds of dishes. Yuzu's flavor? Imagine a cross between a mandarin orange and a lime. The juice makes a floral vinaigrette; it's also used in ponzu, an addictive Japanese dipping sauce. Bottled yuzu juice can be found at specialty foods stores and Asian markets. If unavailable, substitute 3 tablespoons fresh lime juice and 1/2 tablespoon fresh orange juice.
When you’re wanting a “lighter” pizza option this one will fit that bill perfectly. Our personal pesto portabella pizzas are the perfect portion for a light lunch or even can be served as an hors de vors for all your summer entertaining.
For this tasty toast, hummus is topped with tangy marinated mushrooms for a hearty and filling meal. Your mushrooms will need to marinate for at least four hours to absorb maximum flavor and become pleasantly tender, but feel free to let them soak in the dressing for up to 12 hours for even more intensity. You can make them the night before to enjoy the toast for breakfast, or prep them first thing in the morning for lunch.
This pasta is light and refreshing with the bright flavors of garlic and lemon. Meaty oyster mushrooms add a savory note and heartiness to the dish while spinach keeps it fresh and colorful.
Orecchiette pasta works well in this recipe, but feel free to substitute any pasta shape, or variety, such as whole wheat or gluten-free.
