Hello everyone,

Sometimes you just need an easy morning. But what if it’s a holiday, you have a family to feed or guests are on their way over. Well, I’ve got the answer—a make ahead vegan breakfast casserole. It’s like a deconstructed breakfast sandwich that you can make the night before. All you need to do in the morning is pop it in the oven, get ready for the day, and take it out an hour later. It’s so easy! Dare I say, fool proof! I stumbled on two different vegan strata recipes from Sweet Simple Vegan and Veganosity and decided to combine and tweak the recipes a bit to make something suited to my own taste. I suggest checking mine out as well as the two others to see which recipe might be right for you.

The following recipe creates a savory, comforting, meal sure to keep you full and fueled throughout the afternoon. Give it a try and let me know what you think!

Cheers!

Jocelyn

Recipe: Zucchini & Squash Casserole

Hello everyone,

Casserole is such a timeless, satisfying, family-friendly dish. No wonder it’s been a household staple for years. However, I’ll admit – growing up, I was never a big fan, and my mother certainly didn’t attempt to make casseroles too often. Lately, I cannot seem to get enough. I suppose it could be due to the continued harvests from my garden. It’s certainly been a summer of squash, and I’ve fallen for zucchini & squash casserole.

cas·se·role     ˈkasəˌrōl/

noun

1. a kind of stew or side dish that is cooked slowly in an oven.

If you’re looking for an easy-to-make comfort food side dish for your next meal, look no further! This recipe is so simple, with only 6 ingredients. You simply chop, swirl and stick it in the oven. It’s magically simple. Why not give it a try?

Cheers & happy eating!

Recipe: Homestyle Green Bean Casserole

Hello everyone,

 It’s 6:30pm on a weeknight. You got stuck at work, and then in traffic. You’re tired, you’re hungry, but not to worry—dinner is already done! Casserole is a perfect goto meal for busy weeknights. You can make it in advance and simply reheat and serve on the spot.

Growing up, I know that green bean casserole was a popular staple at family get together and holiday events. However, I just couldn’t get excited about the dish. It’s soggy. I don’t like mushrooms. The list goes on.

I finally decided to give traditional green bean casserole a vegan twist, using vegetable broth and nutritional yeast instead of cream of mushroom soup! Check out the step by step pictures below.

What’s your favorite weeknight recipe?

Cheers!

Jocelyn
