These roasted sweet potato tacos are a healthy, delicious way to satisfy taco cravings - plus they require just a handful of simple ingredients! I'm constantly looking for new ways to reinvent dishes that I make often. One go-to dinner in my household is TACOS! Tacos with roasted zucchini, peppers, and guacamole; tacos with plant-based crumbles; tacos loaded with beans, lettuce, tomatoes, and cheese... you name any kind of vegetarian taco, chances are high that I'm a fan! Today's recipe is inspired by the baby purees I've been making for my 8-month old. Lately I've been buying a lot of potatoes to make her, and one puree that I've whipped up a bunch is a cinnamon sweet potato variety. One day I decided to roast sweet potatoes for both us adults and baby for dinner, and while thinking ... [Read More]

Meatless Monday Recipe Idea: Black Bean Veggie Tacos with Cashew Cream [Gluten Free]
Hi friends! Another weekend has flown by, and it was a good one for me. I kicked off my weekend with a much needed massage at the student massage school near me, San Jose National Holistic Institute. The students perform whatever massage they've been working on in school, and this time it was a Swedish massage. The masseuse did a good job of working on all of my achy muscles for an hour -- for $20. Needless to say, it was awesome! Afterwards I headed over to the mall to spoil myself a little, and I picked up a new Athleta workout top and some beauty loot from LUSH and Benefit Cosmetics. I'm kind of in love with LUSH.

Tofu Breakfast Tacos
Another weekend has flown by, and Monday came oh so quickly. As I've mentioned before, I telecommute for my job, and working from home has its perks: Sometimes I work in my pajamas. As a matter of fact, if I have a conference call at 8 am or earlier, it's an almost guarantee that I will not be dressed yet. I also get to work with my dog sleeping at my feet under my desk the majority of the time, which is pretty sweet. I'm lucky enough to have a pretty flexible schedule. If I need a breather or am having writer's block, I can go for a walk with my pup or take a workout break. And since my kitchen is just down the stairs from my office, I make pretty much all of my meals. I love being able to make my own food and taking a few moments to play around with recipes. Cue today's breakfast: I ... [Read More]
