Weekend Reading | The Full Helping

This is the last Sunday before the first day of my fall semester, which I can't believe is here already; I've got my first class, Ethnic and Therapeutic Meal Patterns, on on Wednesday. Tomorrow I'll be mapping out my work schedule for September, getting my syllabi in order, and continuing to unpack and catch up from some recent travel, which I'll have more to share about next week.I like the "back-to-school" energy; it always feels so purposeful. And I'm ...

Izy Hossack’s Falafel Smash

[heart_this] August 25, 2017 Main Dishes, Quick & Easy, Recipes, Soy Free, Tree Nut Free

I turn to Izy Hossack's blog, Top with Cinnamon, for delicious and vegan friendly recipes. But more often than that, I read it for culinary guidance. Izy has a knack for making seemingly complex recipes (especially baking projects) feel easy and appealing, and her curious, studious spirit shines through her words. She's obviously fascinated by food, but not in a way so academic or scientific that she doesn't also seem to have a lot of fun when she's cooking, ...

Vegan Rigatoni Alla Norma

[heart_this] August 21, 2017 Gluten Free, Main Dishes, Quick & Easy, Recipes, Soy Free, Tree Nut Free

Last week, I mentioned that I sometimes struggle with the recipes or kitchen processes that are most intuitive. I guess the exception to this would be pasta, which I nearly always make without a firm agenda in mind. Even the pasta recipes that I end up blogging about are nearly always happy accidents, weeknight meals that I realized were worth writing down because I liked them enough to make again and again. This simple vegan rigatoni alla Norma is one of ...

Those of you who have been reading for a while know that I usually post some reflections on my birthday; it’s become an annual tradition that allows me to reflect a little on the terrain of the past twelve months. I guess it’s no surprise that this year’s birthday post is permeated by heartache. My…

  • Vegan fruit and yogurt is one of my favorite afternoon snacks, and I'm
partnering with @bluediamond to make this one even more nutritious with some healthy fat from whole natural #almonds. I love these snack packs: they make it easy to add nutrition and staying power to any meal on-the-go, or simply to have easy portions when you're throwing something together. Also in my bowl: local, juicy plums and blackberries πŸ˜β˜€οΈ #sponsored #snacking #snicketysnack #snacktime #vegan #veganfood #veganfoodshare #veganism #veganlife #vegansofig #whatveganseat #plantbased #plantbaseddiet #poweredbyplants

  • Nothing like a good freezer clearing! Defrosted farro and kidney beans, green beans and broccoli, roasted beets, and an easy dijon vinaigrette. Came home from travel and was so grateful to have wholesome food at the ready. Proof that batch cooking is worth it, even when it takes some time and effort πŸ™πŸ»πŸ™πŸ»#cooking #batchcooking #homemade #leftovers #lunch #salad #plantbased #plantpower #plantstrong #power #plantbaseddiet #plantbasedlife #vegan #veganfood #veganfoodshare #veganism #vegansofig #vegansofinstagram #whatveganseat #wholefood #wfpb #nourish #nourishyourbody #nomnomnom #instafood #instayum #f52grams #thekitchn #makeyourfood
  • Today on the blog I'm sharing @izyhossack's quick, easy, pantry-friendly, and delicious recipe for falafel smash (think: deconstructed falafel piled on pita with easy homemade sauce). It's from her new cookbook, The Savvy Cook, which is indeed savvy but also smart, economical, beautiful to look at, and oh-so #vegan friendly. Giving away a copy, too πŸ™ŒπŸ»πŸ“–Link in my bio! #thesavvycook #veganism #veganlife #veganmeals #veganfoodporn #veganfoodshare #veganeats #whatveganseat #vegansofig #plantbased #plantbaseddiet #falafel #chickpeas #lunch #easyrecipes #cooking #f52grams #linkinbio #foodshare #instayum #instafood
  • More summer pasta, and #sorrynotsorry πŸ˜†πŸThis is a spin on @coluhenry's BLT pasta, made with the last of my tempeh bacon strips (recipe from Food52 Vegan), sun golds, greens, and some #vegan parm. Delicious and super fast. #whatveganseat #vegansofig #backpocketpasta #tempehbacon #summer #summermeals #pasta #dinner #cooking #veganism #veganlife #plantbased #plantpower #plantbaseddiet #poweredbyplants #weeknightmeal #f52grams #foodshare #instayum #instafood #buzzfeedfood #thekitchn #latergram
  • This salad, created in partnership with @bluediamond, couldn't be more
summery! 😎 Local peaches, baby spinach, wheatberries, smoked tofu,
vinaigrette, and a nice handful of sea salt roasted almonds. These are
so simple and wholesome, but they add perfect salty contrast to the
fresh fruit, plus plenty of crunch. Yum! #sponsored #salad #saladporn

  • Meet the pasta dinner I'll be eating on repeating for the rest of summer! This is a #vegan spin on classic rigatoni alla Norma, and it's so tasty, simple, and good. The sauce is made from fresh, juicy, organic Italian tomatoes from @pomi_kitchen, and it's worth doubling to freeze, it's so good.
