I know hummus is not the new kid on the block anymore. I know it is the stereotypical dip that people assume vegans eat every day. There are good reasons for the reputation hummus holds though. For one, it is delicious. Two, it is healthy. Three, it is versatile. Four, the texture is second to…

Healthy Pina Colada (Hallelujah)
If you like Pina Coladas…and getting caught in the rain…doo dah dah. If you like making love at midnight….doo daah doo. Oh, hi there. Don’t mind me, just reminiscing over the FAN-freaking-TASTIC Pina Coladas I whipped up this past weekend. I was talking with a couple friends at work and we were discussing the best…
Better Than Chick’N’ Salad
I am not sure if chicken salad is a southern, American, or entire world thing…but it is definitely a Jenn thing. Or was, I should say. I would crave crazy amounts of chicken salad and when I did I wanted it fast and loaded. There was no doubt in my mind I had to come…
Greek Artichoke Salad with Tofu Feta
I don’t know about the weather near you right now, but here in South Carolina…it is HOT! So hot that I plan when I will cook anything that involves heating the stove/oven. This timing is usually whenever the sun is down and ideally in the morning as it is the coolest. Even when the sun goes down at night it…
Extreme Lean Green Veggie Bowl
I sit here preparing this post in the sweltering heat. No, I am not at the beach or a park. I am not outside at all. I am, in fact, sitting in my home. Our. A/C. Is. Out. Dun dun dun dunnnnnn. My hopes are that by the time this post publishes, this will all…
South(west)ern Grits
A basic grits recipe was the first thing I EVER learned how to make. Born and raised in South Carolina, I find this comes at no surprise. Grits are a staple here, and many of those outside of the deep south do not understand our love for these coarsely ground corn kernels. Today, I may…
Easy Peanut Sesame Zoodles
So this past weekend the husband and I ventured away from our usual theater (we had a gift card) to go see Jurassic World. We were both quite excited as we are both movie fanatics and dinosaur lovers. Well, about 30 minutes into the film, the power goes out in the theater. We waited, breathing…
Edamame Wasabi Bean Dip
Before I get to today’s recipe I want to share a little something about my personal life that is heavy on my mind. I, Jennifer Harmon, am once again puppy crazy. Now, I say puppy crazy just because in order for me to get a new dog it needs to be a baby so that…
Cheezy Sriracha Stove Top Popcorn
I feel that I need to start this post of by saying that I have never been a huge popcorn lover. That is not to say that I do not like it, I do, really. I just have never been overly excited when there is a fresh pot of puffed corn in front of me ready to be…
Healthy Slow Cooker Sloppy Joes {Vegan}
There really is nothing quite like a messy, sticky, sloppy joe. I always got excited when it was sloppy joe day in my day care as a kid and not much has changed. I was just as excited to have sloppy joe day this past weekend. There is something about that sweet and salty texture…
