Autumn is in full swing, and, dare I say, winter is heavily looming. During this time of year, our tastebuds turn to meals that warm our chilly bones and speak to what’s in season. You’ll find us noshing on a lot of one bowl meals – warm salads, if you will. This Butternut Squash Farro…

Pumpkin Berry Smoothie Bowl
The shift of seasons is already a weird time (is it too early for butternut squash soup? is it too late for peach cobbler? are shorts and long sleeves a weird combo?), but add travel to that and things get weirder. Over the past month, I’ve bounced from the Midwest, to Souther Cali, to New…
Tempeh Lettuce Tomato Avocado (TLTA) Sandwich
Some dudes (and gals) laugh at the attempt we vegans make to use tempeh as a substitute for bacon. It’s just not the same!, they say. And they are correct, it’s not the same. Tempeh bacon will never exactly recreate the bacon experience. Same with a veggie burger instead of beef. Same with using jackfruit…
Strawberry Cocoa-Avocado Mousse
Strawberry Cocoa-Avocado Mousse – the PERFECT summer dessert! The combination of avocado and cashews gives it a creamy, decadent texture, and the dates sweeten it naturally. Strawberries are the obvious summer buddy to this chocolatey dessert. Transform it in to a delicious fruit dip, use slightly less “milk” and chill until nice and thick….
Curry Tempeh Salad
This Curry Tempeh Salad is adapted from a recipe one of my girl friend’s makes when we get together. I have fond memories of her popping open a tupperware brimming with this spicy, sweet mixture, and everyone gathering around the kitchen island to dip, dunk and scoop it onto crackers, bread, and lettuce boats. I…

This creamy, crunchy, spicy combo pairs perfectly with a sweet mango on the side. Print Open-faced Hummus & Beet…
Tacos with Cilantro-Pepita Pesto
We’re often asked questions like “what kind of stuff do you guys eat?“. The first answer is usually planteatersmanifesto.com, and the second answer is usually tacos. We make some mean tacos, usually topped with some sort of improvised sauce like this amazing Cilantro-Pepita Pesto. Enjoy! Print Tacos with Cilantro-Pepita Pesto Author: James Prep time: 5…
Almond Joy Overnight Oats
Almond Joy Overnight Oats – a cool, satisfying breakfast delicious enough to be mistaken for dessert. I was never a fan of Almond Joy candy bars, so I happily picked them out of my Halloween candy stash and gave them to my mom. She loved them. It happens to be her birthday week, so today…
Loaded Mexican Sweet Potato
Loaded Mexican Sweet Potato = dinner in < 10 minutes. This recipe is concocted from ingredients we always have on-hand: sweet potatoes, canned beans, avocado, greens (fresh or frozen), salsa, and nutritional yeast. Like most of our recipes, the base of this one is a blueprint. No salsa? Use BBQ sauce or salad dressing. No canned…
Cocoa-Raspberry Pancakes
Sweet, chocolatey, fluffy Cocoa-Raspberry Pancakes… We’re obviously on a brunch kick. The base of this recipe is our go-to for pancakes. we swap in whatever fruit, flavors, and toppings we have in the kitchen. Sometimes we dot them with banana slices and smother ’em in cashew cream, smear them with nut butter, sprinkle them with…
