Mike grew up having Pozole for certain holidays and I knew I would never be able to recreate the way his mom does it.  So, I went on the hunt to find my own recipe so he couldn't compare (lol).  I found this crockpot pozole using a verde sauce and we all fell in love with it!  Plus, I found organic hominy and am able to say this whole dish is made with fresh, organic ingredients.  Click here for the full recipe.  This is absolutely a family favorite.

I have made these a few times now and love them.  They have great flavor and are a perfect snack for Maeve as well!  Click here to be linked to the recipe.  

These are so good and easy to make them vegan.  I use Forager's Organic Cashewgurt in place of sour cream and throw on top some vegan cheese.  I also use Siete Cassava Four tortillas.  Click here to be linked to the recipe. 

This dinner is a staple in our household because it's so easy to make and delicious!!! I make this dish vegan by using a vegan mayonnaise and vegan parmesan cheese. This is a Pinch of Yum recipe and can be found here.  If you love caesar salad, this is a MUST!

The best chili I think I have ever had! Mike was upset at first when he learned that I made chili without meat until he tried it. We both agreed how much flavor this chili had that he didn't even miss the meat. I made this without the vinegar and cilantro and used water vs broth and let me tell you it wasn't missed. I topped this with avocado and tortilla chips and my mouth is still watering thinking about it. A must try! Click here for the recipe. 

I will start by saying that my picture looks nothing like theirs, but I think that might be because I used the Ninja vs the Vitamix and it turned out a different consistency.  Also, I replaced the eggs with flax seed to make them vegan.  And again, don't judge a book by its cover as these are very tasty!  And I love the fact that I can pack them full of spinach for Maeve and she doesn't even know.  Click here for the full recipe.  

This is a great alternative to making lasagna.  You literally layer all the ingredients in the crock pot and walk way while it does its thing!  I make this vegan and gluten-free by replacing the cheese with vegan cheese and using gluten-free noodles.  It's an easy, hearty crowd-pleaser!  Click here for the recipe.  

Maeve and I are obsessed with Urban Remedy's raw steel cut oatmeal.  However, buying them already made gets very expensive.  I finally decided to look up their recipe and make them for the first time at home.  Now I am kicking myself that I didn't do this sooner!  This is insanely easy and so good!  Plus, you can add your own fixings to them.  Click here for the recipe.
