Guys!! This polenta is so good!! Like steal-out-of-the-fridge good! Normal polenta is pretty decent all on its own. It’s soft and salty and has that little bit of texture from the bigger pieces of grits, but this garlic herb polenta takes it up a notch. It takes it up seven notches. In addition to being a great base for sauces and stews like regular polenta, this has such a great flavor, it’s fantastic all on its own. How To Serve Polenta Ok, the dilemma is, you see a polenta recipe. You think, gee that looks like an easy thing to make, and cheap! Wow! But how in the heck do…

Stove Top Pressure Cooker Pinto Beans – Gluten Free and Vegan
Pinto beans are one of my very favorite vegan protein sources. Not only do they have an amazing flavor and texture all on their own, they’re so versatile. I put them in soups, pasta, tacos, and on polenta or baked potatoes. This recipe gives them a savory flavor that mixes well into many different dishes. If You Have An Electric Pressure Cooker I make these in a stovetop pressure cooker. If you have an Instant Pot or other electric pressure cooker, just follow your cooking times for soaked pinto beans. They may take a little longer than this recipe because electric pressure cookers cook at a slightly lower temperature than…

Easy White Bean Chili – Gluten Free & Vegan
This is a fantastic and easy white bean chili soup. It’s gluten free and vegan, but will please even your gluten loving carnivore. Almost all the ingredients are pre-chopped and measured, so it’s just a matter of adding them to a pot. The directions are there to help you out, but honestly, almost the entire recipe is open cans, open bags, dump in pot, boil. You have to blend two tomatillos, but this step takes about 30 seconds. The timed out directions might give you slightly better results (like warming the cumin first) but aren’t really that necessary, so don’t overthink it or throw the whole thing out if you…

Easy Indian Masala Sauce – Gluten Free and Vegan
Okay, this is so not a traditional masala sauce. It’s a sauce for lazy cheaters who like an easy, tasty supper. It tastes like a really flavorful Indian Food sauce, lots of depth and flavor. It takes maybe 5 minutes to put together, and it’s naturally gluten free and vegan. When I make it, I usually stir in boiled potato chunks and chickpeas and serve it over basmati rice. Some nights, I use it as a really tasty noodle sauce. The Ingredients Garam Masala Garam Masala is a powdered spice used in Indian cooking. It’s a combination of a bunch of spices that you’d never find together in typical Western…

Hearty Potato and Carrot Stew – vegan, gluten free
This is a recipe for an easy gluten free, vegan stew. No joke, this post took hours to write (and rewrite and write again). How can you really communicate how awesome stew can be if you leave out the meat? Like, how do you convince someone that all they have to do is boil a few vegetables in some seasoned broth, and they’ll have an amazing family meal? It feels like a trick question on an exam. Can anything in life really be that simple? Take the meat out of stew and you’ve slashed both the cost and the amount of work. No cutting or browning meat, no simmering for…
