Thousand Island Dressing

You probably read “Thousand Island Dressing” and immediately thought of salads. Well, California is home to an world-famous burger shop called In ‘N’ Out. They make simple burgers—toasted bun, burger, tomato, lettuce, onion, etc.—but they also slather on a generous amount of Thousand Island Dressing instead of ketchup and mustard. I say all of this to tell anyone who’s tried and loved this burger that you can recreate this burger at home, but with all plant-based ingredients! This Thousand Island dressing is completely vegan (as long as you get vegan Worchestershire sauce) and is great on burgers, sandwiches, as dip, and of course, on salads.

Agave-Orange Salad Dressing

Not all salad dressings have to be oil-and-vinegar ones. This dressing will take “crisp and refreshing” salads to a whole new level, adding a citrusy, tangy, and slightly sweet note to any bed of greens. (I like it best on fresh chopped romaine, like the Romaine Citrus Salad).

Romaine Citrus Salad

Count ‘em: 1-2-3. Three ingredients, plus an equally simple dressing equals a quick salad that works even for special occasions. Crisp, refreshing, and slightly tangy-sweet, this one is a newfound family favorite that I’m really excited to share with you.

Broccolini & Grape Salad

Broccolini is a green vegetable similar to broccoli, but with smaller florets and longer thin stalks. Basically, it looks and tastes like a hybrid of broccoli and asparagus.

Italian Chopped Salad

Vegetarian antipasto ingredients like peppers and artichokes are sliced and diced to make this substantial salad.

Creamy Pasta Salad

Sometimes, you just need things to be easy. You need lunch or dinner to take less than half an hour to prepare, and you want to make it early in the day so that it’s ready when you are. This pasta salad is for just such a day. (It doesn’t hurt that it’s cheerfully bright and ideal for eating outside in the sun.) This perfect pasta salad really only takes as long to make as your pasta takes to cook.

Grilled Cheese-Style Sandwich

Gooey cheese? Check. Toasty bread? Check. Creamy Tomato soup? Check.

Bean and Green Chile Quesadillas

Quesadillas, another recipe you might have thought would become obsolete in your plant-based repertoire. Feel free to kick this recipe up a notch with some corn, mushrooms, and onions for a balanced lunch.
