When I am in the mood for Thai food, I make my favorite, Vegan Drunken Noodles Recipe. In fact, I love all Thai food, but most Thai restaurants cook with a ton of oil. Despite having my favorite “go-to” Thai restaurants near my house, the best Thai is the Thai food I make at home, at least nutritionally.
Full of veggies, lentils, and savory flavors, this lentil loaf is worth every ingredient. Make it the day before and enjoy it for dinner and lunch for the week.
Everyone loves a Cobb salad and this is a great recipe. It makes plain old, shredded iceberg lettuce shine. Bacon, hard boiled eggs, chicken, tomatoes, blue cheese, avocado, green onion and dressing.
Kidney beans, baked beans and butter beans are combined with ground beef, bacon and onion in this hearty meal. You can also put the ingredients into a slow cooker and cook for about 8 hours on low.
Sometimes simpler is better. This six ingredient bean soup recipe is a delicious combination of navy beans, carrots, onion, and bacon, simmered until the soup is thick and the beans are tender. A winner with children and adults alike.
A simple, delicious dinner using up the glut of wintered-over broccoli from my parents' garden. You may use sausage or veggie sausage instead of bacon, substituting olive oil for the bacon fat.
