Polenta & Sweet Potato Pizza

I created a polenta pizza topped with sautéed sweet potatoes and mixed veggies. It’s a unique twist on an Italian classic, using flavors that won’t really remind you of pizza at all, but it will feign the pizza experience. It is absolutely delicious and can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Make sure you [...]

White Bean & Sweet Potato Burger

Another vegan burger has entered my life, and it’s quite delicious. Using sweet potato and white beans as the base, the burger holds together when cooked, but has a softer bite. Balanced with a few spices and veggies, it’s a nutrition-packed way to enjoy a burger but without all the fillers. Enjoy!

Steamed Broccoli and Vegan Nacho Cheese Sauce

And it’s all vegan, even the cheese bit. I’ve made many a vegan cheese on this blog, but this one takes the cake as the most decadent and multi-purpose. It uses both white beans and sweet potato for consistency and color and tahini and nutritional yeast for that beloved cheesy flavor! Enjoy!

Sweet Potato and Coconut Fig Cream Towers

I featured these last year, but the are a favorite around here. It’s the season for sweet potato, so what better time than to make them! Roasted wedges of caramelized sweet potatoes are layered with a creamy fig coconut sauce. It’s filling and fit for any time of the day without weighing you down. Enjoy!

This recipe is all about highlighting both the sweet and the savory. Sweet potato [...]

Sweet Potato Chips

Speaking of sweet potato, have you all forgotten how to make it into chip form? The best chip I’ve ever had was born from this recipe and I really can’t get enough! White potatoes are bashed for their capacity to dramatically tip the blood sugar scale, but if you switch to sweet potatoes, that sugar [...]

Sweet Potato Falafel

If you take a well-known experience, like the one that is falafel, and make it healthier, more fun, and decidedly unique without losing deliciousness points, why not do it? This recipe is one of those experiences – it’s falafel with sweet potato that is baked and served with a drizzle of tahini.

VegNewsTV: Simple Vegan Sweet Potato Macaroni and Cheese

I present to you my second video contribution too VegNewsTV. Of all the vegan macaroni and cheese recipes out there, none has really seemed that appealing. I am not a fan of nut cheeses or artificial vegan “cheese” found at the grocer. Nut cheeses are heavy and unnatural to eat – you’d be surprised the [...]

Mexican Stuffed Sweet Potato

I adore sweet potatoes, and I crave them through the Summer. They’re best baked with a slab of butter, but tonight I wanted to make my sweet potato an even more savory experience, so I went Mexican on it. With a touch of black beans and red pepper, my favorite root vegetable got a much-improved [...]
