Extra Crispy Cajun Mushroom Sandwich

In my younger years, and before my vegan journey, I spent far too many nights partying in Palm Springs, only to find myself grabbing a Big Chicken Sandwich at Jack In The Box. I wanted to remake that sandwich, but of course, vegan and even better than I remember. This recipe will blow your mind! Get ready.

Forbidden Fried Black Rice w/ Jerk Tofu

While making this recipe, I learned a lot about the origins of Black Rice. Did you know that Black Rice was reserved for the wealthy and upper class? Hence the name "forbidden". Of course, I can't personally account for the truth behind this lesson, but I am glad that this rice is no longer forbidden. I love this rice and the rich nutty flavor that it has.

Gallo Pinto

I grew up on dishes that consisted of beans and rice as staple ingredients, but the beans and rice in Costa Rica hits different. Gallo Pinto consists of beans, rice, onions, spices, and herbs. Another crucial ingredient for Costa Rican vibes is Lizano Salsa. We became very familiar with this dish while visiting Costa Rica and wanted to make it at home. My recipe below is not authentic, but it tastes amazing!

Lion's Mane Loaded Nachos

I love nachos as a go-to quick meal and these do not disappoint. This recipe was originally a collaboration with Mylkdog Notcho Cheez, but you can use any vegan cheese you prefer. I have a cashew chipotle nacho cheese recipe that would go well with these nachos. You can find that recipe under Loaded Waffle Fries w/ Chipotle Cheese Sauce.
