Closeup of Discard Pumpkin Muffins.

Moist Sourdough Pumpkin Muffins with Oil

Soft, fluffy, and full of cozy fall flavor, my Sourdough Pumpkin Muffins are made with tangy sourdough discard, warm pumpkin pie spices, and silky pumpkin puree. Lightly sweetened with brown sugar and topped with a crunchy brown sugar-pecan streusel, these muffins are irresistibly tender. This recipe makes 12 tall, fluffy muffins – vegetarian and easily dairy free! 

Candied Maple Walnuts on a parchment paper cooling.

Baked Candied Maple Walnuts

After making this recipe, you’ll never make stovetop Candied Maple Walnuts again! Consistent oven heat and just the right amount of time means the maple syrup is caramelized without crystalizing, creating a shiny, snappy candy coating on the walnuts. We’re using walnut halves (no chopping), and making them without brown sugar for a flawless maple syrup sweetened finish! 

Marry me chickpeas with creamy Tuscan Sauce with a spoon in a pan, ready for serving.

30 Minute Creamy Marry Me Chickpeas 

Rich, creamy and full of punchy flavor, this classic made vegetarian comes together in one pot and in 30 minutes! Marry Me Chickpeas feature tender, plump chickpeas, finished in a silky Tuscan sauce. The sauce is umami packed with sun dried tomatoes, simmered in vegetable broth, Italian herbs, a hint of pepper flake, grated Parmesan, fresh spinach and a splash of cream to finish.

Bottle of Caesar Salad Dressing.

Rich and Creamy Caesar Salad Dressing without Anchovies

Bold, tangy, and full of flavor, this is my go-to Caesar salad dressing – no anchovies required. Briny capers step in for that classic salty punch, while creamy mayo, tangy Greek yogurt, fresh garlic and a splash of lemon juice combine for a rich, zesty dressing that hits all the right notes. It’s a quick, no-fuss version on the classic Caesar – vegetarian, gluten free and easily made egg-free.

No Bake Peanut Butter Oatmeal Bars with Chocolate Chips

Peanut butter and sweet honey are gently warmed together on the stovetop, then hearty oats are stirred in. Add a splash of vanilla paste or extract if you like, then mix-in the chocolate chips – they’ll melt just enough to swirl into gooey goodness. Press the mixture into a pan, freeze until set!

Spinach Basil Pesto in a bowl.

15 Minute Spinach Basil Pesto

A delicious condiment, component or sauce, my 15 minute Spinach Basil Pesto is made in a food processor so it’s a snap to pull together. It features fresh spinach, tender basil, salty Parmesan and toasted walnuts with a hint of lemon. Make now and freeze for later while basil is in season for the freshest flavor! This recipe is vegetarian and easily gluten free.
