Quinoa Tabbouleh
This tabbouleh recipe is vegan. Gluten-free. Nutritious. The first time I can remember eating tabbouleh is in college, when my mom stopped by and brought me a container of it. It was so fresh. So colorful. So flavorful. Almost the complete opposite of my college student... (see the full recipe!)
Pan Seared Chicken Breast Fillets

Vegetarian Burritos (Black Bean & Sweet Potato)
Burritos have to be one of my favorite foods. I love the variety of ingredients you can add. It's really like a meal itself. I've been wanting to make black bean and sweet potato burritos for a while now, and finally got around to it. Yay! We were surely not... (see the full recipe!)
