Sweet potato bowls, three bean chili, stir fry sauce, and more!

Hello! Here’s what’s happening at The Garden Grazer:

Sweet Potato Quinoa Bowl

This ultra-nourishing bowl is so flavorful, filling, and healthy. It features roasted chickpeas, avocado, arugula, and a creamy tahini dressing. It’s protein-rich and easy to customize!

Cilantro Jalapeño Hummus

This creamy hummus is zesty and easy to prepare. Great for snacks, dips, sandwich spreads, and beyond!

“I just made this for the second time in a week and my 20-year old son, who thinks Doritos should be a food group, just took a plate of it chanting about how good it is and asked for the recipe.” -Jo

Fiesta Three Bean Chili

This healthy chili features warm, savory spices, colorful veggies, and a three bean medley. Finish it with the toppings you love!

“This is my favorite vegan chili!! So easy to pull together after a busy day and tastes even better as leftovers! I love to enhance my bowl with cilantro, lime juice, crushed blue tortilla chips and hot sauce mixed in. Yum!” -Melissa

Vegan Stir Fry Sauce

This tasty sauce is made from scratch in just 5 minutes! Use it with your favorite veggies or whatever’s in season.

“Wow! This has got to be the easiest sauce ever! Made a simple soy curl stir fry with bell 3, onion, broccoli and spinach, and this sauce was absolutely perfect!! We served it over millet, and the sauce went well with the nutty flavour of the millet, too. Thanks for sharing such a simple, delicious, and versatile recipe!!” -Jennifer

Vegan Butter Chickpeas

This is my plant-based version of the classic butter chicken dish. Tender chickpeas swim in a rich, velvety sauce that’s packed with warm, savory spices. Flavorful and satisfying!

“This was so good! I was taste testing along the way and was worried after the peanut butter was added it would just taste like a peanut sauce. But as it cooked and simmered and ultimately served with rice it became absolutely incredible! I literally didn’t even sit down to eat, just ate at my counter. It was SO good! Thank you!” -Ben

Behind the Scenes

Greetings from Montana’s wintry expanse :)

Amaryllis blooms! These are an annual winter tradition gifted by my awesome aunt. They’ve enjoyed their window perch on my work desk. (And front row seat to the many snowstorms this winter!)
