30 Minutes or Less

Sometimes you just need peanut butter…

I made a new friend at my Weight Watchers meeting tonight.  Her name is Carly and she  has a smile that could warm even the Grinch’s cold heart.  This young lady loves to sing the National Anthem at her brother’s go cart races, obviously loves her mom even though she […]

Meatless Meatball Sub – 14PPV

This is so good but it’s way too much food…said no one ever.  Until tonight!   During my Trader Joe’s run last week I picked up a bag of Meatless Meatballs.  Was pretty sure it was going to end up in whole wheat noodles or spaghetti squash but they were […]

Nana’s Vegan Stirfry Sammie – 13PPV

Nana’s Stir Fry Sammie should go down in some hall of fame somewhere. I didn’t even use a fork to scrape the last little bits on my plate. I didn’t want to waste a drop so I scraped up the tidbits with my fingers and then licked them! (I refrained […]

Nana’s Vegan Southwest Pasta Salad – 10PPv

By now you know my mom is vegan, not vegetarian…vegan.  She doesn’t even eat honey.  It’s not because she loves animals (which she does by the way) it is because she was faced with over worked kidneys and a flailing liver after years of high doses of ibuprofen and other […]

Nana’s Cheesy Leeks – 4PPV

Finally getting last week’s #vegan delights from Nana posted. She takes such delight in playing Refrigerator Roulette and making things out of what she can find in the fridge. This little diddy she made up after finding two leeks that needed to be used quickly or turned onto mulch for […]
