Vegan Meatball Sub Sandwich w/ Cashew Parmesan & Caramelized Onions (oil-free) sweetsimplevegan.com #oilfree #meatball #vegan #sub #hearty #caramelizedonions #homemadeparmesan #cashewparm #veganmeat Meatball subs were a childhood favorite of mine. I had them often, and they were always reminiscent of times with family and friends. Growing up in an Italian household, they were pretty much a staple. Thankfully, we've created a vegan alternative, and in my opinion these vegan meatball subs are way better as they are free from cholesterol, saturated fat, and any of the harm associated with its counterpart.

'Cheesy' Balsamic Savory Granola with Watermelon Seeds & Sun Dried Tomatoes (gluten-free)I decided to change things up a bit and try my hand a savory snack. When I want to nibble on something throughout the day, savory treats are sometimes necessary, but not as often available to to me unless I dig into veggies or something like avocado toast. I wanted to create a quick grab a handful and go type of snack and this was a winner! Not only is this great for snacks but it also pairs well with salads, soups, {especially my Curried Sweet Potato Soup}, raw vegan pastas + more! And this recipe came together a lot easier than I had expected. I kind of just winged it with all of the herbs and spices, I felt pretty bad ass that the flavor profile was on point I'm not going to lie.'Cheesy' Balsamic Savory Granola with Watermelon Seeds & Sun Dried Tomatoes (gluten-free)
