I absolutely love making fresh, homemade pizza at home. It’s such a satisfying meal and you can put whatever you love on top of the dough. Since I bought a stand mixer a few months ago, I am obsessed with making the dough at home, too, and it comes out so well and delicious. The pizza dough is versatile too, because you can use if for pizzas, calzones, bread sticks, and more. Anyway, when I decided to make a recipe using Kraft Classic Ranch dressing because the new Kraft Pourables have been reinvented with a new, better taste! The Classic Ranch is now creamier, with more ...

Vegetarian Nacho Soup
Have you ever followed a basic recipe, only to have it come out horribly? Yeah, that happens to me occasionally, and it’s always such a bummer when it does. When I saw this recipe (gone wrong), I thought it looked good and wanted to try it. It’s hard to find vegetarian soup recipes that are really hearty because typically a nacho soup would have beef or some kind of meat, right? So this veggie-only option is really great, however the recipe I followed did not come out well…it came out bad. So bad that I ended up tossing it. It just really didn’t seem salvageable. I hate hate hate ...
Spinach and Feta Quinoa Cakes with Lemon Dill Sauce
Today I have yet another quinoa recipe, because really, do they ever get old?! No way! If you haven't jumped on the quinoa bandwagon yet, you are totally slow, but it's never too late! While quinoa seems to be a fad food right now, it's definitely going to stick around. It's one of the most complete foods, and is super healthy and great for your body.

Or how about some Strawberry Goat Cheese ...
Quinoa ‘Fried Rice’
Over at my house we just love Quinoa (specifically Bob's Red Mill Organic Whole Grain Quinoa). It's quick and easy to make, and it's super healthy as well. Being a vegetarian it's hard to get enough protein in my diet sometimes, but quinoa definitely makes the job a lot easier. Plus, I love the taste of it...it's a must whether you live a vegetarian life style or not. Quinoa is the perfect substitute when it comes to making rice. I knew when I saw this recipe from Damn Delicious that I had to make it asap! This 'Fried rice' came together so well, it's been added to my ...
Crispy Pressed Tofu with Garlic & Mint
You may remember last week when I posted a review for the EZ Tofu Press, and now I am excited to share a tofu recipe with you, and have a giveaway! Ben, the creator of the EZ Tofu Press has been generous to offer a EZ Tofu Press to a reader! I am going to share this delicious recipe with you first, and then at the end of the post give you the details on the giveaway. I was so excited to use my tofu press and found a yummy sounding, yet unconventional recipe to try it out with. I am very used to eating the typical tofu with soy sauce or some Asian sauce alike. ...
Fire-Roasted Tomato and Red Pepper Soup with Grilled Cheese Croutons
Fire Roasted Tomato & Red Pepper Soup with Grilled Cheese Croutons is the perfect cold weather comfort food, yet healthy at the same time. Lately we have been eating a lot of soup at my house. It's generally pretty easy to make, and healthy too (deja vu?!). Like I said in a previous post, I have been trying to make a couple weekday meals, on the weekends, so that I don't have to cook every night. I've made this Fire Roasted Tomato & Red Pepper Soup with Grilled Cheese Croutons for years, and actually posted it a few years ago on Domestic Superhero, however, I've updated ...
