Hi everyone, Happy Monday! I hope you all had an amazing weekend and a great start to your week. This week Chris and I are sharing a our Corn Flake Crusted Scalloped Potatoes that are both gluten + oil-free, and just how we remembered them growing up.
Scalloped potatoes are nostalgic for me. Growing up I used to get 'hot lunch' in middle school, anyone else know what I'm talking about? The side in the meal was often scalloped potatoes, and it was my absolute FAVORITE. The funny part is, I actually never knew what it was called and was never able to correctly explain it to my mom so she could make it at home, but it was still one of my favorite foods.
12 Apr Teriyaki Mushroom Bao (Steamed Buns) + $10 Meal Challenge {oil-free}
This week are bringing something a little different to the table -- we were challenged by our friend Lisa aka The Viet Vegan to create a recipe that is not only MOUTH WATERING good but one that also equates to a $10 meal.
CHALLENGE ACCEPTED!
For Lisa's recipe, she created a Vietnamese Style Stir Fry. Check out both of our recipes, and let us know which one(s) you would like to try out!
10 Apr Roasted Kale Salad w/ Easy Hummus Dressing {oil-free}
I know that it may be difficult for some to eat raw kale in a salad as it naturally has a slightly bitter flavor, but a great way to serve it if that is the case is to roast it first! Not only does it add a new layer of texture to this salad, it brings out a whole new flavor in the kale.
I made this recipe in collaboration with PlantPure Communities, a nonprofit organization that was formed partly as an outgrowth of the 2015 hit movie PlantPure Nation directed by Nelson Campbell. In order to celebrate Earth Day, they have created a 30 day challenge to eat leafy greens every day of the month of April called #30daysofgreen. 
Part of their work is to raise awareness about nutrition research, much of which was led by Nelson’s father, Dr. T. Colin Campbell in the book The China Study, and they strive to promote the benefits of a whole food, plant-based lifestyle in a way that is accessible to a diverse audience. Their social media challenge will provide everything from recipes and nutritional information to cooking tips and health advice–all relating back to the importance of daily greens!
