Cookbook Countdown: 20 Days to Go: Mushroom Burgers

Posted by:Lindsay S. Nixon Category:

If a picture is worth 1,000 words, than I don't think I need a blog post about this recipe! ;-)

Thick, meaty and juicy, these burgers will kick the pants off any old frozen veggie burger! And although they're made fresh, they come together really easy--mix a few ingredients together, shape into patties and cook! (They can be baked, pan fried in a non-stick or grilled). It's so easy!

They also store well in the fridge and heat to perfection …

Cookbook Countdown: 21 Days to Go: Garden Chowder

Posted by:Lindsay S. Nixon Category:

One cold night in December 2009, I stood in my tiny NYC kitchen wondering what I'd make for dinner that night. I had so little on hand but it was just too cold to consider going back out.

Scott asked if I could make Veggie Biscuit Pot Pie, which would have been perfect for such a bone-chilling night, but sadly, I was all out of flour.

Posted by:Lindsay S. Nixon Category:

Today I'm blogging about the Mexican Dip because it's a secret gem in my cookbook--meaning, it will probably get overlooked because of it's unoriginal name... but names are deceiving! This dip is unbelievable!

Although I designed this dip with parties in mind -- it whips up so quickly that it's perfect during …

Cookbook Countdown: 23 Days to Go: Rajma Masala

Posted by:Lindsay S. Nixon Category:

We all have ingredients we lean on and for me that's chickpeas (with tofu licking it's heels). I always fall back to chickpeas when I'm creating recipes because they're basically the plant-based version of chicken. They can and do go with just about anything...

However, I didn't want chickpeas to be my crutch when I was writing my cookbook and above all else, I wanted to showcase every bean and legume--really encompass and embrace all the variety legumes offer.

Cookbook Countdown: 24 Days to Go: Cornbread

Posted by:Lindsay S. Nixon Category:

Happy New Year! 

In honor of my husband's southern heritage, I whipped up one of my most cherished recipes in the cookbook: cornbread. 

Hoppin' John is "the" traditional New Years dish in the South, but cornbread is often served as a side and since I'm always up for an excuse to make this recipe... I indulged.

I can't even put it into words how obsessed my testers & I were with this bread. Now that I think about …
