Hello, plant lovers!! This week I have another delicious dinner for you to make! Let’s get started! I made the sauce for this one first, as it was a little more involved than the rest of the dish. Similar to the vegan pesto, I used cashews that had been soaked in hot water for about a

Happy Mrs. Monday!!! This post almost didn’t happen. Mr. FBBQ and I both had a head cold the past couple of weeks. Fall in the Midwest. We are feeling better though! Today’s dish is loosely based on a recipe I found in a friend’s cookbook. I made a lot of changes/additions/substitutions and made
