Antipasto Salad

This recipe is a 'suggestion' of items that you may have on hand. Aside of the fresh tomatoes and cheese, everything else is bottled or canned. I added chopped celery and carrots to the original recipe  for extra, fresh crunch – very satisfying – you'll even want it for breakfast!

Pinto Posole

This is a winner, winner, non-chicken vegan dinner! The Guajillo chilis are key - thank you Cookie and Kate for this recipe! I love to serve this with fresh chopped onion, dried oregano and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice.

Chickpea Salad

There are lots of chickpea salads out there but if you only add lemon zest, lemon juice, olive oil, mint & seasoning to your chickpeas, you'll still love it. Feel free to add what you have in your fridge.

 Broccoli Bisque

Seven simple ingredients, no cream, and super healthy. We love this soup dashed with curry and lemon juice.

White Bean Tuna Salad

A hearty main-course salad that you can prepare ahead for company. Mouth-watering delicious-ness!

Cruciferous Crunch Salad

There are fancier salads that take much more time to make, but this is a quick-to-make-go-to AND a favorite. I call that win-win.

 Roasted Carrot Soup

A great starter to a holiday meal. It's quite satisfying so a small ladle full is a perfect portion. The longer you roast the carrots, the deeper the flavor. Don't forget to core the carrot centers! It's key.

Sheet Pan Fajitas

This recipes literally takes minutes to make and it has so much flavor. Build a Mexican Fiesta around this dish – it's good enough for company, and works well for vegans who can forgo the chicken.

Black Bean Salsa

This partners well with the fajitas. Whether you call it a salsa, relish, or salad, it's cooling fresh flavor with the basil makes it a hit.

Chimichurri Avocado Salad

This is an unusual recipe that marries avocado and watermelon brilliantly. But it's the sauce that is exceptional. Veg News hit a high note with this recipe.

Vegetable Meatloaf with Balsamic Glaze

This exceptionally delicious tried-and-true recipe by Bobby Flay is on regular rotation in my household, and most of my friends’ homes. To make it gluten free, I replace the Panko with gluten free crumbs, but I’m interested in trying it with riced cauliflower, as it makes a great binder also. Notes: I like to make these in muffin tins for portion control and to freeze. I also like to add a bit of pork to the turkey. You may form your loaf freeform on parchment paper, instead of using a loaf pan.

Potato & Hatch Chile Stew

This recipe is a keeper, and is surprisingly delicious for its simplicity. Be sure to take advantage of Gelson's fresh Hatch Chiles, even if you have to freeze some for later!
