Armed with a fresh bunch of Russian kale from Trogg’s Hollow CSA and Market Farm, we set out to try our hand at kale chips as part of our Eat Local Series. This sweet and mild variety has just a hint of pepper and its broad, flat leaves crisp up beautifully. We combined cumin and […]
Our Instant Pot Jowar Upma is inspired by traditional jowar upma, a savory Indian porridge. Rather than soaking and then cooking the sorghum for hours, we are preparing it in the Instant Pot, and using whole grain sorghum (as opposed to pearled or split), which yields a heartier texture. The result is a satisfying plant-based […]
We have a very large food processor, with very large blades, of which we are very much afraid. The only thing worse than unpacking that monster is cleaning it. Fortunately, you can make cauliflower rice in seconds with a good old-fashioned potato masher. No fancy gadgets required, and we like the roughly mashed texture even […]

This foolproof dish couldn’t be easier to make, and it hits the spot for fall’s comfort food cravings without the starch overload. Every bite has a slightly different flavor combination and the Italian sausage ads a kick to tie it all together. In short, it’s freaking delicious. Leftovers reheat well, making this a substantial lunch […]
Hummus and a handful of vegetables make a great lunch or snack, which is why we always like to have this Vegan Instant Pot Hummus with Roasted Garlic on hand. Store bought hummus can be loaded with salt and preservatives – and it’s expensive – but you can get 4-5 cups out of a single batch […]
October is upon us, and so are all things that go with it. Like fall leaves and taffy apples. And Halloween and taffy apples. And sweater weather and…you get the point. They’re everywhere, taunting us. Win this battle with a Peanut Butter Pie One Bar and make a ridiculously easy sauce that tastes just like […]
At more than 100 years old, this recipe was the epitome of farm-to-table before hipsters made it cool. It’s a hearty, almost stew-like soup that leaves you feeling full for hours. No fancy artisan bread required. We’re so hooked on this stuff, we refuse to attempt or even entertain the idea of substitutions. Just make […]
