Happy Halloween, buddies!

Do you have anything spooky planned for today?

I’m not big on scary movies ever since I decided to watch The Ring by myself in my parents’ basement when I was 15.

I’m probably still making up for sleepless nights after that episode; equal parts terrified and smug at 2 AM because hey I got through the whole thing alone and ALIVE.

I think the scariest thing I might do today is cleaning the massive pile of dishes on the kitchen island…

By Flora & Vino Leave a Comment

Easy grain-free, gluten-free, plant-based burritos made with black beans and collard leaves! Stuffed with veg and topped with beet salsa and tahini drizzle.

This morning I posted on Instagram and asked how everyone’s Wednesday was going.

Which is all fine and good, except that it’s Tuesday.

It’s the last day of travel for us here in California, and if you can’t tell, I’m sort of losing track of the day and time.

Yesterday we saw Napa Valley and today we drive to Sonoma and then on to San Fransisco!

But really, vacation brain or not, how could I forget a “Taco Tuesday”, particularly when I have such a killer Mexican-inspired recipe to share with you?

You’re going to love these Black Bean Collard Burritos stuffed with a mix of raw and roasted veggies and topped with a fun and fresh Beet Salsa!

Sweet Potato Veggie Burger Sliders

By Flora & Vino 4 Comments

Sweet potato veggie burger sliders with sweet potato buns featuring Hilary’s Eat Well veggie burgers. Stack everything up with your favorite toppings!

The yoga studio I go to is a solid 30 minute drive, sometimes more if there’s any traffic.

Many evenings I’m that girl, running up the steps to the studio lugging my heavy Manduka yoga mat and a water bottle under one arm.

I put on the brakes right before entering the studio so I can maintain some semblance of being a zen yogi, ready for practice.

I don’t think I’m fooling anyone.

I always emerge from my practice and the hot hot room fan hour later calmer, clearer, chill-er, oh, and HUNGRY.

On the walk down to the car I quickly assess the leftover situation and then get Dan on speed dial to ask him to preheat the oven to 400, please.

These Hilary’s Sweet Potato Sliders are currently my go-to post yoga noms for a quick plant-based meal that’s fun, filling, and FAST.

Curried Cranberry Apple Chickpea Salad Cups

By Flora & Vino 4 Comments

1-bowl curried chickpea salad with apples, pecans, cranberries, and a delicious spicy yogurt base. Serve with radicchio cups for a fun lunch, snack, or appetizer.

I’m writing this post with the sniffles and a tickly throat…all of the telltale symptoms that a cold is coming for me.

Doh.

Sometimes I like being sick. Is that a weird thing to say?

OK, maybe I could do without the physical symptoms, but being a highly active person, sometimes I forget to slow down.

Being sick quite literally forces me to take some time to rejuvenate both my body and my mind.

Lounging on the couch eating nicecream while binge-watching This Is Us (who else is obsessed???) sounds pretty great right about now, but we’re about to road trip to Indiana to visit my extended family and there’s a lot to get done around here.

Mostly in the form of food preparation because when I travel, I tend to take my kitchen with me.

These Curried Cranberry Apple Chickpea Salad Cups are on my list of easy things to prepare for the trip.

You’re going to love whipping this mixture up for easy fall lunching!

And hey, curry is good for colds, right?

Romaine Tempeh Tacos with Cashew Sour Cream

By Flora & Vino Leave a Comment

Delicious plant-based Romaine Tempeh Tacos with Cashew Sour Cream made with “tempeh taco meat” and a creamy cashew-based sour cream.

Do you feel like you’re being pummeled with pumpkins?

If you do, don’t worry, I put orange on the back-burner for this post to share a classic.

I was in Michael’s recently picking up some photography props and commented to the cashier about the Halloween display already in plain sight.

“Oh”, the girl said, like that was nothing, “The entire Christmas spread is set up in back.”

Woah, now. One holiday at a time!

And it just so happens that today is one of my favorite holiday that comes around on a weekly basis…

It’s Taco Tuesday, so let’s make Romaine Tempeh Tacos with Cashew Sour Cream!

When I first joined the workforce after college, I went through a major Taco Bell phase.

The kind of enduring phase that leaves you with an embarrassingly large ziplock bag stuffed with leftover hot sauce packets.

I guess it was the convenience of the whole thing, and tacos were a succinct meal decidedly more fun than a sandwich or salad.

On multiple occasions I eagerly took intricate taco orders for my coworkers and left the office guilt-free to hit the drive-through.

FYI, walking through the office around lunchtime wafting the smell of spices and fried food while handing out tacos will make you everyone’s best bud.

So, wouldn’t it be cool if they handed out Romaine Tempeh Tacos with Cashew Sour Cream at a taco drive-through?

Well, they hand them out at my house…

“Eggy” Veggie Chickpea Salad Sandwiches

By Flora & Vino 1 Comment

“Eggy” veggie chickpea salad sandwiches with nutritional yeast and “black salt”. Perfect on a sandwich, crackers, or by the spoonful.

Labor Day Weekend, WHAT?

Does anyone else feel like time is literally flying?

I think back to the hours I spent in high school complaining of boredom, staring up at the stark white ceiling from my pink quilted bed, wondering what the heck to do with my day.

Boredom.

Yawn.

Sometimes I wish I could experience it again, those hours that seemed to expand before me like an accordion of nothingness.

I don’t know about you guys, but time is pretty much the most precious thing to me in my adult life.

If plans fall through and there’s suddenly a gap in my full day, it feels like I won the lottery.

Dance parties in the kitchen ensue and Harper barks along.

But for the most part, friends, I remember how happy I am to be stuffing the hours I do have with chickpea salad sandwich trials.

I hope you’ll be able to “stuff” this recipe into your Labor Day Prep because it’s the perfect farewell to summer.

Let’s all slow down for a freakin’ minute and make these “Eggy” Veggie Chickpea Salad Sandwiches, shall we?
