Muriwo Unedovi (Peanut Butter Greens)

Muriwo Unedovi, sometimes called peanut butter greens, is a traditional Zimbabwe dish that combines a leafy green veggie of your choosing and a peanut butter sauce. This African-style greens in a sweet and spicy peanut sauce dish will ignite your taste buds and is vegan, oil-free, gluten-free, and soy-free.

Green Goddess Salad

Wow! This Green Goddess Salad is flat-out yummy! It has become an instant hit with only three simple ingredients plus our amazing Green Goddess Salad Dressing and the optional but highly recommended Baked Tortilla Chips. This salad is perfect for taking to parties, potlucks, and family gatherings. It's one of those dishes that appeal to most everyone—vegans and non-vegans. Don't get me wrong; you can make this into lunch or as a starter for dinner. You can't go wrong with this Green Goddess Salad. Plus, this quick vegan meal is oil-free. That's right; there's no added oil!

Red Lentil Dal

This Red Lentil Dal recipe is vegan and super easy to pull together. It's great on it's own or over rice. If you want to take it up a notch, wilt a handful of baby spinach or chopped rainbow chard and top with diced tomato. But you can't go wrong with this dish, and it only takes 30 minutes to make. It's loaded with protein, fiber, iron, and zinc.

Miso Soup with Mushrooms

This Miso Soup with Mushrooms is divine because of its wonderful umami flavor. It has a deep savory taste, with sweet, nutty, salty, and earthy notes. What makes this soup a champion in my book is its simplicity. With only a few ingredients, the miso soup takes 20 minutes to whip up. This quick vegan meal is not only wonderful on its own, but also delish over rice noodles.

Spicy Orange Creamsicle Smoothie

If you're looking to keep breakfast light, this Spicy Orange Creamsicle Smoothie checks all the boxes. It tastes amazing! The texture is creamy like any good smoothie would be. It's fast (10-minutes) and easy to make with only six key ingredients. Best of all (in our opinion), is it's rich in fiber, antioxidants, and phytochemicals—these are beneficial compounds found in whole plant foods ("Phyto" refers to plants).
