My favorite dish to take to parties or make for my guests in the summer is potato salad. This vegan version of potato salad is loaded with flavor and healthy goodness. Instead of heavy classic potato salad, this dish is light and creamy. Citrusy arugula gives it lightness and creamy dressing with avocado, garlic and mustard makes it lusciuos and perfect.

Poblano pepper is my favorite taste of Mexico. Charred Poblano soup is a perfect combination of spicy peppers flavor, and sweetness of coconut milk. It balances the heat. Poblano pepper originally came from Puebla, Mexico. It has a distinct and smoky taste. Poblano peppers that are usually mild in taste could sometimes be tricky. Two peppers that come from the same plant can be completely different in heat.

Nothing says summer like Fried Green Tomatoes. You must know that I’m absolutely obsessed with it. I never tried anything like this until last year when we moved to the South and I was hooked. Delicious! Crispy on the outside and so tender and sour on the inside, I was ordering this dish in every restaurant that offered it. But when I tried making it myself I fell in love with it even more. This healthy Baked Vegan Green Tomatoes recipe will make you eat it all summer long without the guilt. Try it with my Vegan Spicy Smoked Paprika Aioli.

I’d like to introduce you to my happy meal. This warm buddha bowl with garlicky tahini sauce is my ultimate comfort food of all. This plate is a combination of warm and cold ingredients brought together with this tangy tahini dressing is a heaven on a plate. So simple and so nourishing, it has everything you need for a hearty lunch or dinner. It is absolutely perfect! Turmeric sweet potatoes go so well with the creaminess of avocado and the nutty flavor of tahini. Beware mac and cheese, new comfort food is in town and it’s here to stay.

Making hummus at home is as easy as one, two, three! This hummus has garlicky and lemony taste. It’s smooth texture makes it a great dip as well as it spreads easily on sandwiches. It can be so versatile by adding different vegetables or spices to the original recipe. But I have to warn you, once you will make this recipe at home, you will never go back to the store bought hummus again.

You guys, this is the easiest sandwich you will ever make. It is also as healthy as a bowl of salad with couple slices of bread (yes, I’m looking at you, Sweetgreen ). You see, I have two kids and I work from home. The fancy gourmet lunch is just not an option for me but this simple and filling sandwich makes me feel like I do a take out from a busy city deli everytime I make it.
Try this sandwich with our Simple Traditional Hummus recipe.
