Southwestern corn salad: a no-cook tossed salad with sweet corn, kidney beans, bell peppers, scallions, and cilantro in a light salsa-chili dressing. Vegan, picnic-ready, and made in 10 minutes.

This is one of my absolute favorite things to make at this time of year. It takes almost no time to prepare, so I’ll whip up a big batch on my day off and then all I have to do when I get home is put it in a bowl or mash it up and put it on toasted bread drizzled with some olive oil. It also makes a great appetizer along with some homemade or store-bought pita chips. Honestly, when serving this as a dip or a spread, I don’t even bother taking out my food processor, I just use the bottom of a glass and mash it a bit.

A nice alternative to meat burgers, these are packed with veggies and are a good source of protein. Suitable for pan frying or grilling.

This recipe is easy to scale down. A filling, tasty yet wholesome one pot meal that's perfect for busy week days.

Spiced chickpea hummus blended with cumin, coriander, ginger, turmeric, and tahini. Food processor makes it silky smooth. Chill before serving with pita or vegetables.

Perfect for feeding a crowd and easily scaled to feed a larger crowd. No spices to disagree with anyone, just solid belly warming filling goodness.
