If you’re like me…you can’t seem to get enough tacos… and Fish Taco are one of my absolute favorites, especially in the Summer time! The fishless fillets from Gardein make them so quick and easy to whip up and taste amazing! Maybe a little nontraditional...topped with a spicy lime and garlic aioli but these are the perfect vegan tacos to add to your weekly Taco Tuesday lineup.

Read MoreThere isn’t too much to this recipe to be honest. Fry up a couple of vegan burgers, make some special sauce, chop some veg and assemble! I only have a couple of tricks! If you want to actually do that whole double stack, like a traditional big mac…make your patties really thin! (But, honestly…they would be just as good as just a single regular burger.) Sometimes vegan cheese can take a little longer to melt so make sure to put in onto the top of your burgers as soon as you flip them! Just a little splash of liquid smoke and some minced garlic in the pan when you fry your burgers will make all the difference in the flavor profile!

Read MoreThe variety of flavors and textures come together to create the perfect side dish for summer entertaining and BONUS: it ends up looking way, way, more fancy than it actually is, and so do you, by association. The goal is for the exterior to get good and crispy while the inside maintains a soft and creamy texture. This recipe does have a couple steps, but nothing about it is difficult. Start to finish you’re still looking at about 30-35 minutes.
Read MoreAnother recipe that I probably would never have been exposed to had I not lived up in Ohio’s Amish Country for a decade or so is Cheese Burger Soup!
