Vegan black bean burgers are one of the few types of veggie burgers that always seem to be crowd pleasers. I find that even most omnivores love them. Why might that be? Probably because black beans are so hearty and satisfying, and they pair up so well with zesty spices, as evidenced by scrumptious dishes like spicy black bean soup, black bean empanadas, and black bean burritos. Put those flavors into a burger and you’re that you’re pretty much guaranteed to get a flavor-bomb....

If you haven’t made low carb spaghetti squash to replace pasta before, it’s actually much simpler than it looks. The most challenging part is cutting it open, since the skin is very hard prior to cooking. A sharp knife is crucial here! Otherwise, you just cook spaghetti squash in the oven. And, don’t be put off by how long spaghetti squash takes to cook in the oven. The time is all hands off!...

Let’s talk about gochujang. It’s a sauce, sort of. Maybe more like a paste. In any event, it definitely falls into the seasoning/condiment category. But it’s one of the few seasonings/condiments that I could make a meal of. Is that wrong? Well maybe I don’t want to be right. Okay, really, gochujang is way to spicy to make a meal of, but I love it. So instead I decided to make a meal that heavily features it: let me introduce you to gochujang tofu....

It has a delicious combination of juicy pineapple, crunchy peppers, and chewy baked tofu. The dish is really easy to make and the only step that takes time is in baking tofu cubes....

This tofu recipe is for people who really, really LOVE their ginger. Ginger makes a frequent appearance in my tofu recipes. It’s a great addition to marinades in dishes like my Kung Pao tofu or my sesame ginger marinated tofu, or stir-fry sauces in dishes like my tofu stir-fry with garlic sauce, but unlike all of those recipes, in this one ginger is the star. The sauce has enough ginger to give it a bit of a kick!...

But why stop at just black beans? There are so many delicious foods that compliment black beans really well, and sometimes it’s nice to add a little something extra to your black bean burgers. That’s where sweet potatoes come in. I’m basically in love with the combination of sweet potatoes and black beans, as evidenced by my sweet potato black bean chili, tostadas, and burrito bowls.

I know, I know. You can buy vegan barbecue sauce at the store. If you decide to go this route, be sure to put your label reading hat on! You’ll want to look out for ingredients like honey and anchovies. You’ll usually be able to find at least one or two brands that don’t contain these ingredients. But I just can’t! Every time I try a bottle from the store it’s either too sweet or too bland or not spicy enough....

For real though, I can’t even begin to tell you how delicious these are. They’re made for breakfast, but in all honestly you’ll be making them as a side to just about every meal! Follow me… Preparing the Potatoes I promised you crispy potatoes and that’s exactly what you’ll get. One of the key steps in getting the crispy potatoes is boiling them before you fry them. This allows you to remove the starch, the very thing that often prevents potatoes going soft & fluffy in the centre and crisp on the outside....

Every now and then, or actually pretty often, I go out to the store and buy a bunch of ingredients to make a recipe, and then I forget about one (or more!) of them when I actually go to make the recipe. I guess that’s one of the hazards of making up your own recipes and not having a book remind you to use all of the ingredients. Anyway, that’s why my pad ped doesn’t have any cherry tomatoes in it....

I am not one of them. When we visited the Netherlands when I had just turned fifteen, there was a moment of simultaneous enlightenment and gloat. My ketchup-loving family had to pay for little packets of the sweet, red dip, whereas mayonnaise flowed from the taps like the fountain of youth, pooling in the creases of wax paper sandwich wrappers for dipping french fries. “Ha!” I exclaimed, finally smug. “I told you I’m not weird for liking mayonnaise, or coating my fries in it....
