Lately, we've had this vegan chickpea noodle soup on repeat. We don't have the sniffles, but the nourishing leek, ginger, and turmeric broth would also be perfect if you have a cold.

Quick Pickled Green Beans
Pickled green beans are seriously underrated. Especially the spicy ones. There, we said it. Quick pickled green beans are briny, salty, tangy—and borderline addictive.

Everything Bagel Popcorn Seasoning
I’ve been obsessed with popcorn for as long as I can remember. I was that girl who’d buy movie theatre popcorn without even going in to see the movie. When I was stuck late working at the office, I’d often break into my stash of microwave popcorn bags hidden under my desk. And the night […]
Oven Baked Falafel
Whenever we see falafel on the menu, our heart skips a beat. It makes us think of the herb-packed falafel pitas we feasted on in Greece, the mountains of falafel they serve up at our favorite Lebanese restaurant, and frankly, just how good it’ll taste when dunked in tzatziki. For non-meat-eating folks like us, these […]
