5 Minute Chickpea Sandwich

By Fueled For Adventure March 5, 2020

Honestly I feel weird even calling this a “recipe” because it is so easy and can be thrown together in 5 minutes, but here we are. When I’m going out of town or somewhere I don’t know the food options, I’ll throw a can of chickpeas, avocado, and bread in my bag. I go from zero to hangry pretty quick, so it’s important for me to have snacks on hand when hunger strikes. This humble sandwich has saved me in so many situations and can be as dressed up or as simple as you like. A few weeks ago I went on a ski retreat in the Colorado mountains and got stuck in a TINY town due to weather on the way up. The dining options were quite limited, especially for a vegan.

I love cooking, but sometimes I’m just not feeling a lot of effort after a long day. When this happens, I typically pull out staples: rice, tofu, and veggies. These items are so versatile and work with anything in your fridge. Just throw together a quick sauce and you have endless combinations for your meals.

I am certainly going to be incorporating it into more recipes moving forward! As an added bonus, it’s a truly beautiful vegetable and chock full of vitamins.

Crowd-Pleasing Easy Vegan Mac and Cheese

By Fueled For Adventure January 30, 2020

This vegan mac and cheese dish is my go-to potluck or event recipe. It’s super easy to make, feels decadent but is actually healthy, and is a crowd-pleaser for plant people and carnivores alike. People are often shocked to find out that this dish is actually plant-based. This weekend is the Super Bowl, but we all know the most important part of the day is the grub. Take this dish to your event and you’ll surely be the crowd favorite. I typically use broccoli for this dish, but that can be swapped for a variety of veggies. Cauliflower works very well and is great for sneaking in some hidden veggies. If you like it on the spicy side, try including some sliced jalapeños. The options are endless! Pro Tip: If you aren’t eating this immediately, just make the base to take with you. Throw the breadcrumbs on top and pop…
