One Pan Meals

Black Bean Quinoa Chili

Hearty plant-based chili with black beans, quinoa, and mushrooms in a sweet tomato broth. Perfect to prep in advance and load up with toppings!

Is it still soup season?

As long as we’re staying safe at home, I’m saying it is.

Each Monday throughout April I’ve made a new pantry-friendly recipe via Instagram stories.

And surprise, surprise, almost all of them have been soup!

It’s so satisfying to throw legumes, grains, and veggies in a cook pot and let them simmer to deliciousness.

Give me a pot, some quinoa, black beans, and spices, and I can make you a vegan, gluten-free, and totally satisfying meal.

This Black Bean Quinoa Chili is packed with black beans, quinoa, and mushrooms in a sweet tomato broth.

It’s made with only pantry-friendly ingredients that you probably already have tucked away in your cabinets.

Hello, winter!

Tonight I brought in the winter solstice at my yoga studio by doing 108 sun salutations in honor of the longest day of the year.

But now I’m hungry, so let’s all congregate in the kitchen and get warm.

Cooking always seems to become more of a priority this time of year, when hot healthy food is the center to family gatherings and the oven is a source of warmth.

I thought we could kickstart the new year with these Spaghetti Squash Noodle Bowls that are super comforting and packed with cozy cooked veggies and a tangy Asian flair.

These bowls are the perfect easy meal for #meatlessmonday or any day of the week, requiring only one baked spaghetti squash, one pan, and all the veggies and spices your heart desires.

Quick and colorful 1-pan cauliflower side roasted to perfection with simple seasonings and herbs. Enjoy as a holiday side or add protein for a cozy entrée.

Can we talk for a second about how close the holidays are?

Today is two weeks until Thanksgiving and yesterday was six weeks until the new year.

Not that I’m counting or anything.

To be honest, I haven’t even fully acknowledged that it’s November, let alone the side I’m going to bring to Thanksgiving Day dinner at my parents’.

Luckily, I hope this Tri-Colored Roasted Cauliflower Salad can help us with our holiday dish scramble.

It’s the perfect side dish to add some cozy color to any plant-based plate!

You just need one pan, three heads of cauliflower, the perfect neutral, high-heat cooking oil, and your favorite fresh herb to bring this salad to your dining room table.

By Flora & Vino 2 Comments

Quick 1-pan meal with three kinds of veggie noodles, chickpeas, and an oil-free almond milk yogurt tahini with fresh dill. Perfect for meal prep!

Are you binge-watching any good shows lately?

I recently started Lucifer, which has been thoroughly entertaining to me during the move.

It was the first comforting thing I watched in the new place, surrounded by takeout and piles and piles of freshly moved *stuff*.

With the “move” is technically over; all of said *stuff* is in one place but mentally I still feel like a moving truck with boxes waiting to be unpacked.

Which means dinner needs to be something that DOESN’T require a lot of unpacking, you feel me?

This Rainbow Veggie Noodle Bake with Yogurt Dill Tahini is warm, comforting, and so easy to throw together for weeknight dinners!

Hearty plant-based cacciatore with bell pepper, onions, and tomatoes over zucchini noodles with tofu cubes for protein. Perfect for easy weeknight dinner.

How long have you been digging the plant-based life?

When the doctor asked me recently how long I’d been vegan, I had to stop and do that thing where you mentally count on your fingers.

1…2…3…4…5…

“Six years this fall!” I said, surprising myself.

Wow, that’s a whole lot of plants, friends.

Considering it’s my 6-year “plantiversary”, let’s cozy up to this 1-Pan Tofu Cacciatore with Zoodles.

One pan to rule them all packed with peppers, protein, and simply delicious seasoning over zucchini spirals!

Tofu Sheet Pan Meal with “Cheezy” Miso Tahini Sauce

By Flora & Vino 2 Comments

Simple 1-pan meal with tofu, vegetables, and “cheezy” no-cheese miso tahini sauce. Serve over quinoa or by itself for an easy and filling weeknight dinner.

Happy Monday, friends!

I have a new/old one-pan meal recipe for you today.

New/old?

Let me explain.

I still remember the day I first made and photographed this Tofu Sheet Pan Meal with “Cheezy” Miso Tahini Sauce.

It was one of those shoots that really flowed, trying out new angles on my sleek new black granite photography board, each new shot seeming a little better than the last.

I mean, roasted veggies and lightly browned tofu glistening with a creamy miso-tahini drizzle?

Looking good, one-pan meal.

Spicy Almond Butter Sweet Potato Noodle Bowls

By Flora & Vino 4 Comments

Easy sweet potato noodle stir-fry with a creamy almond butter sauce. This under 30 minutes meal is perfect for a weeknight dinner!

Hi there!

How was your week?

Did you send/receive any Valentines?

We stayed in last night and opened a bottle of red and made Chocolate Coconut Covered Strawberries while Harper padded back and forth, looking for a pet or a strawberry or maybe both.

So I can’t complain.

We have plans to go to my favorite restaurant this weekend, but until then I made you a little something gourmet from my own kitchen.

I’ll be honest: these Spicy Almond Butter Sweet Potato Noodle Bowls are kind of the best thing ever.

They come together in under 30 minutes for a quick nutritious dinner that tastes indulgent while being sneakily nutritious.

All you need is one-pan and the guts to drown your veggies in nut butter sauce.

Got it?

Rosemary Roasted Cauliflower Salad & Bordeaux

By Flora & Vino Leave a Comment

1-pan roasted veggie salad topped with toasted hazelnuts and mulberries. Perfect for a weeknight dinner or side. Serve with a glass of red for fine dining!

My parents used to tell me that if I kept frowning like that, my face would stay that way, which really only made me frown harder.

Recently, I saw a meme that read, “It takes XX (insert low number) muscles to smile and XX (insert high number) muscles to frown. Frown harder, let’s get ripped!”

Laugh. Out. Loud.

Lately, though, I feel like my face is frozen in permanent photographer face — the Canon body pressing firming into my third eye while my right eye is all squinty.

The face only a mother could love?

The face I make when I’m about to take the perfect picture of Rosemary Roasted Cauliflower Salad with Toasted Hazelnut & Mulberries.

So…am I ripped yet?

“Cheezy” Chickpea Sheet Pan Meal

By Flora & Vino Leave a Comment

Easy 1-pan meal with chickpeas, veggies, and nutritional yeast seasoning. Vegan, gluten-free, grain-free, and perfect for meal prep!

Well hello there!

How was your weekend?

This past week/weekend I went to Natural Products Expo East and visited with all of my favorite brands and scoped out the newest products in natural foods.

It was a lot of walking, a lot of talking, and a lot of sampling!

Somehow I had the bright idea to hit the grocery store on the way home from the trade-show, to, you know, kill two birds (two tofus?) with one stone, so to speak.

After being surrounded by food and chatter about food all day PLUS lugging of all of the loot from the show AND all of my groceries up three flights of stairs (we’re on the top unit of a stacked condominium!)– I decided I didn’t want to see or hear about food again. Like ever.

But then of course that changed because…a girl’s got to eat.

I eased back into the kitchen today with this fail-proof 1-Pan Meal that’s perfect for meal prep!

If you’re feeling a bit tired, frazzled, and food-overwhelmed like me, this “Cheezy” Chickpea Sheet Pan Meal is exactly what you need.

Come on, let’s do it!

Thai Quinoa & Cashew Stir-Fry

By Flora & Vino Leave a Comment

Easy plant-based stir-fry with cooked quinoa, fresh vegetables, and crushed cashews. Perfect for a quick 10 minute weeknight meal.

I love how days feel sort of endless in summer, you know?

Longer days mean lazier later dinners.

To be honest, I’m usually throwing things together in a pan while Dan and Harper are unwinding on the couch around 8 PM.

“Mmm…what’s for dinner?” he’ll ask curiously, as things start to sizzle and pop and smell inviting on the stovetop.

“Er…” I say, trying to think of a creative name for what truly is a bit of everything left in the fridge served stir-fried.

Well, now I’ve got a name now for this clean-out-the-fridge creation.

This is a Thai Quinoa & Cashew Stir-Fry and you need it on your recipe repertoire!…
