Easy vegan curry made with coconut milk, warming spices, and your favorite veggies. Serve over quinoa or cauliflower rice or by itself!

Helllllllo.

Did you watch the Academy Awards on Sunday?

I may or may not have teared up over my dinner when Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper took the stage to sing “Shallow”.

Oh, maybe I didn’t tell you yet– I finally watched A Star Is Born last week and I’ve been low-key obsessed with the movie and music ever since.

Which looks like me listening to the soundtrack on repeat in the studio with my camera hovering over my curry.

Curry! Do you like it?

Dan hates the smell of it, but I love everything about it, so he dealt with the aromatic kitchen after I tested and retested today’s post.

The Quickest Vegan Curry is what you need in your life to get you through the rest of winter.

Red Bean & Pomegranate Salad

By Flora & Vino Leave a Comment

Red Bean & Pomegranate Salad with a zippy yogurt tahini dressing. Perfect for meal prep and plant-based lunch inspiration.

Hello, world.

I’m sitting writing this out and about!

It feels so fresh to stare out into the daylight outside of a coffee shop instead of through the artificial lights of my office cave.

I need to remember this when I’m totally IN IT (have you seen Garden State?) in the workweek, feeling that intense vortex of busy-ness that doesn’t always lead to productivity.

Sometimes you have to get out and smell the roses to write about the roses, ya know?

How was your weekend?

I ate out a lot more than usual; a welcome break from my usual kitchen happenings.

We had a lovely dinner at True Foods Kitchen last night and today I celebrated my dad’s belated bday with my parents and sister.

So now I’m refreshed and ready to get into the new week with a little meal prep– starting with this Red Bean & Pomegranate Salad with Yogurt Tahini Dressing.

It’s light and nutritious, with a creamy oil-free dressing and pops of pomegranate and sweet red beans.

1-Pot Vegetable Minestrone

By Flora & Vino 4 Comments

Easy 1-pot vegetable minestrone with a delicious tomato-based oil-free broth. Perfect for meal prep, family style soup, and every day eating.

Friends, it’s been a week and it’s not even Friday.

I know you know what I mean.

A few weeks ago some pixels decided to party on my MacBook pro screen and they’ve been dancing up and down in vertical lines on the right side of my screen ever since.

I decided to let them do their thing, rock on, since I could still see the food photos on the left.

Annoying, but manageable.

Fast forward to last night, when, to add add insult to injury, I managed to actually crack the screen.

It went something like this– the laptop in the living room with Lauren.

I fell asleep on the couch, laptop open and sprawled across my lap, and sat up to watch said laptop crash into the hardwood floor at a dizzying 45 degree angle.

When it rains, it pours, right?

If only it was raining 1-Pot Vegetable Minestrone Soup.

Sometimes I write my blog posts backwards, starting at the recipe bottom and working my way up to the tippy top.

Lately I’ve been having trouble getting from point A to point B, so maybe we can take it B to A for a change.

Anyone else have a weird week?

Dan was in Puerto Rico for a work retreat and every picture he sent me of palm-tree studded beaches and bright blue skies and water made my heart ache.

It’s only January and I’m already ready for my vacation!

Before you book yours, I’m offering you a vacation from your usual breakfast.

Swiss Chard Abundance Salad

By Flora & Vino 2 Comments

Swiss Chard Abundance Salad packed with superfoods and an easy oil-free orange tahini dressing. Perfect for meal prep and workweek lunches.

How is January halfway over?

We’re past the midway month point and I haven’t even shared a salad recipe with you.

I’m going to blame the snow.

It’s still mostly white here in Virginia, but I laced up my Sorel snow boots this afternoon and took Harper on a long snow-walk anyway.

We paused for a second 30 minutes in, surrounded by soft snow and gray branches against pink skies– and guys, it was so quiet and so beautiful.

I wanted to bottle up that silence and add it to a permanent highlight reel in my brain.

This month has been anything but quiet, kicking off 2019 in southpaw stance.

Allow this Swiss Chard Abundance Salad with Easy Orange Tahini to be the calm amidst your January storm.

It screams “eat the rainbow” while being packed with superfoods and a citrus based oil-free dressing.

Coconut Cashew Cookie-Dough “Snowballs”

By Flora & Vino 4 Comments

Coconut Cashew Cookie-Dough “Snowballs” made with dates, coconut, and cashews for a naturally sweet, gluten-free, and grain-free snack.

Happy New Year!!!

Did you ring in 2019 in robe and slippers or were you out and about in a big crowd?

I was the latter, sandwiched between hundreds of sequined dresses and dapper suits at a Great Gatsby themed Masquerade Ball when the clock struck 12.

I used to expect some epic change in the split seconds between 11:59 and 12:01 but now I kind of roll with it.

New year, same me.

But new eats can be fun, and I thought we could kick things off with a healthy snack.

These Coconut Cashew Cookie-Dough “Snowballs” require only 5-ingredients with zero added sugars, while being gluten free and paleo.

The only new year ball drop I *really* care to watch, ya know?

Broccoli Rice Bowl with Pomegranate & Grilled Tofu

By Flora & Vino 4 Comments

Plant-based bowl with a grain-free broccoli rice base piled with fresh veggies, grilled tofu, pomegranate seeds, and a light dressing.

Do you still read magazines?

Not online, but physical magazines that come to your house with glossy covers and colorful contents dripping with advertisements.

I used to sit on the floor of my college bookstore between classes nestled between the magazine racks, fashion magazines strewn in an arc around me.

I was obsessed with how pretty and polished everything looked, staring at red bottoms dressed in sneakers and wishing my fairy god-mother might show up and send me to the ball instead of my next exam.

After college I took a break from mags because, well, they kind of just made me want to buy everything.

Today, I’m kind of getting back into magazines, but instead of looking for the latest “it” bag I’m seeking the latest “it” bowl.

This Broccoli Rice Bowl with Pomegranate and Grilled Tofu is IT.

Rosemary Roasted Cauliflower Salad

By Flora & Vino Leave a Comment

1-pan Rosemary Roasted Cauliflower Salad topped with toasted hazelnuts and mulberries. Serve it with a glass of Bordeaux!

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…

So…am I ripped yet?

Holiday macro bowl with miso tahini gravy perfect for the holidays or anytime you’re craving a hearty mix of whole foods.

I’m getting pretty excited about Christmas, guys.

I love the anticipation leading up to holidays almost as much (or more??) as the holiday itself.

Kind of like this big macro bowl that I dreamed it up around Thanksgiving.

While most tables are centered around meatier mains during the holiday season, I’m over here dying to show you how darn festive plants can be.

Here’s how I mix all of my favorites to create a yummy plant-based bowl that’s packed with protein, seasonal veggies, and holiday garnishes.

I’m calling it a Holiday Macro Bowl with Miso Tahini Gravy and I think you’re going to love it.

Dijon Tahini Green Beans (Oil-Free!)

By Flora & Vino 12 Comments

Get your greens in with this saucy side that’s oil-free with a creamy dijon tahini dressing. Perfect to complement your holiday spread.

True or false: Most epic feasts are all about the sides.

TRUTH.

Everyone always gets all worked up about what I’m going to eat for the plant-based Thanksgiving main, and I’m over here loading up on sides like it’s no big deal.

But sometimes green holiday sides can look (and taste) a little less than green, you know?

After being baked and buttered, what was once green is now a soggy chartreuse sight on your plate.

So.

I made this verdant side that’s vibrant and fresh with an easy oil-free dijon tahini sauce.

You’re going to love these Dijon Tahini Green Beans to bring life to your holiday spread!

It’s the perfect green beans Thanksgiving recipe to make this year.
