BBQ Jackfruit Sliders 😍

I made these for lunch...or dinner earlier this week, and they were SO GOOD!

I used canned Jack fruit and found these cute ciabatta roll slider things at the grocery store in the bakery section. 🥐

👀 Did you see my story on Sunday?

I shared a little behind the scenes of how I put together this meal!

🍽️ Featuring:
Dry Rubbed BBQ Tofu (v)
Charred Green Beans (v)
Macaroni and Cheese
BBQ Baked Beans (v)
Fresh Baked Rolls (v)

If you missed it, don't worry because I saved it as a Highlight on my profile!

It's called "Sunday Dinner", so check it out 😁

S/N: My man and I are always going back and forth on whether rolls or biscuits are better for dinner.

I'm a firm believer that biscuits are for breakfast! 😂

He prefers biscuits over rolls for side items. No matter the time of day. Or place. Let that man have his homemade biscuits 😆

👇🏾Let me know if you're a fan of rolls or biscuits for dinner down below! Or...neither? 🤷🏾‍♀️

🥡 Need a quick meatless meal?

Orange tofu with rice and sauteed cabbage is a staple on our weekly menu.

It's nutrient dense, cost effective, and most importantly easy to make.

And of course, it tastes great! 🔥

I made this orange sauce from scratch, and it was so so so good. 👌🏾

I don't typically order orange anything when I go out for Chinese-American food, but this sauce is THAT good.

I'll stop rambling now, but if you haven't tried orange tofu, I highly recommend it.

Are you a fan of Tofu? Don't be shy, let me know down in the comments below! 👇🏾

Snickerdoodle cookies 🍪

Because it's been a while since I've posted anything sweet on here. 🍬

I haven't really been making the time to bake lately, but when I do I typically make these Snickerdoodle cookies.

They're super easy to make, fast, and so delicious! 🤤

I didn't always appreciate the subtleties of the Snickerdoodle.

My partner really taught me to appreciate them. 👩‍❤️‍👨

Probably by always asking me to make them. 😅

In the process, I did a bunch of research on the difference between these and say...Sugar cookies and my mind was sufficiently blown. 🤯

(There's actually a difference)

So anyhoo, that inspired me to turn it into a blog post.

🤷🏾‍♀️ It will be one of the first recipes I share whenever I get around to re-launching my website. (Woohoo!)

So enjoy these pictures in the meantime.

Drop a 🍪 down below if you're a fan of Snickerdoodle cookies!

What if I told you there's as much protein in this meatless plate as there is in a chicken dinner; would you believe me? 🍗

It's true!

And when your tofu tastes like this does, you won't even miss the meat. 🔥

Don't believe me?

🍳Chickpea Omelette with Avocado and Hashbrowns *Chef's Kiss*

Yesterday I was looking through all of the food pics that I've taken this year and I ran across this beauty in the archives. I can't believe I never shared it!

This is a photo of brunch that a good friend .smith whipped up one day. I helped out some, but let's be honest: I was a guest and she was doing the bulk of the work.

This was my first time experiencing a "Vegan Omelette", and it was delicious! Filled with caramelized vegetables and topped with avocado and a lil' bit of Crystal's, it was bangin'.

As I reflect, I'm so grateful for my family and friends that I've picked up along the way. I'm a bit of a workaholic, and I realize it's important to take time to rest and reconnect regularly. As you go into the weekend, remember to create some space for yourself and those you care about.

So happy holidays! Whatever you choose to celebrate, remember to give thanks 💕

So a new recently opened up in North Texas, and I'm really loving it! Since all of the fuss has died down, I've been visiting multiple times per week, and discovering some of the great and options that they have available. I'm looking forward to sharing some cool items as well as great deals that they have!

🍨 This first recommendation is a flavor of ice cream that I hold near and dear to my heart. I must say, HEB nailed it on this one! It's so perfectly:
-Smooth and creamy
-Flavorful (but not artificial)
-Balanced (with a hint of salty)

Very satisfied, and highly recommended the "Pistachio" non-dairy ice cream. When did dairy-free ice cream get this good?🍦

❤️ Happy Saturday!
