Vegan Grits Bowls with Roasted Sweet Potatoes and Tomatoes

Vegan Grits Bowls with Roasted Sweet Potatoes and Tomatoes -- an easy weeknight vegan sheetpan meal (via thepigandquill.com)

Vegan Grits Bowls with Roasted Sweet Potatoes and Tomatoes — Creamy, buttery vegan grits topped with a sweetly caramelized blend of tomatoes and sweet potatoes — all roasted together with bright hits of briny saltiness from olives and capers. Simultaneously light and comforting — the perfect gluten-free, vegan sheet pan meal. Ok folks, I’m jumping on the bandwagon. Ok, no, I’m more like…riding alongside the bandwagon. In a caravan with the bandwagon? Drag racing the bandwagon, perhaps. And the bandwagon in this case? TikTok’s viral baked feta pasta. I had every intention of making the baked feta pasta in all … Read More

Roasted Beet and Fennel Burgers (veg, gluten-free, grain-free, paleo)

Whoa. Check out them lookers. (Also, check out my mom’s vintage sewing table-turned-sideboard.) (And the rih-dic light in her dining room.) (And my clear lack of something to filter all that pretty light.) (But it is oh so pretty.) (K, I’m done now.) Let’s talk about beets, bay. bee. Sweet, nutty and blitzed with licorice-y fennel, warm, worldy spices, piquant salsa and just a dribble of sunshiny honey. AND NUTS.

Masala Roasted Sunchokes with Feta, Mint & Lemon (gluten-free)

UPDATE: This contest is now closed. Thanks to all who entered!  Have you entered our Luv Yo Momma giveaway yet? No? So I guess you don’t wanna win a Breakfast in Bed set from Q Squared, then. Ok. Up to you. (Check it out!) Confession number one. I just ate a pop tart. Well, ok, some non-GMO, organic approximation of a pop-tart, but it hit all the same pop-tarty notes. Scalding hot, jammy inside. Crackling sugary crust. It was all sorts of delicious. I want another. Maybe in time I’ll DIY some for the bliggy. Confession number two. I’m about half … Read More

Thai-Style Roasted Cauli Steaks (guest posting at SLHO)

Thai-Style Roasted Cauli Steaks | the pig & quill #glutenfree #vegan

Hey lads and lasses, and Happy St. Patrick’s Day! Hope everyone’s donning their lucky green skivvies. In honor of this most verdant of holidays, I thought I’d send you over to So…Let’s Hang Out (SLHO), where I’m guest posting about Thai-Style Roasted Cauli Steaks (gluten-free w/ vegan option). See that pretty sauce on top? Totally festive. So maybe it’s Thai, and St. Patrick’s Day is more commonly associated with Irish traditions. But how can you deny that brilliant green, sweet-savory-salty-tart topping of bright herbs, lime juice, savory Thai fish sauce (don’t be scurred!), jalapeenurs and crushed peanuts? You cannot.
