Are you craving comfort food? This incredibly creamy spinach artichoke dip lasagna is exactly what you need! This truly is the best vegan lasagna, it features layers of savory spinach artichoke dip, flavorful tomato sauce, roasted garlic mushrooms, and perfectly cooked (gluten-free) no-boil lasagna noodles. This family-friendly recipe is a winner!

What makes this recipe for vegan lasagna unique? It’s special because every layer is filled with the most delicious and creamy vegan spinach artichoke dip! Don’t get me wrong, a classic lasagna is great, but this spinach dip lasagna is something really special!

My vegan spinach artichoke dip recipe is one of my most popular recipes, it gets rave reviews, like:

“Wish I could give this recipe ten stars! It was outstanding!!! Made a huge casserole dish full – took some to my neighbors in lockdown and took some to my friend in the nursing home. Everyone absolutely loved it! Thank you for this amazing recipe!” -Erin

“Such a great recipe! Thank you! It was a hit as one of our pre-dinner snacks at Christmas. The vegans and non-vegans in my family really enjoyed it. As someone who really does not have a knack for cooking, this was super simple and it tasted great! I’m transitioning into veganism, so my taste hasn’t changed much yet but this was very delicious.” -Ryan

The spinach dip is so tasty that I also use it as a filling for stuffed shells! I highly recommend that you give that recipe a try after you make this easy vegan lasagna recipe. I think you’ll love it as much as I do!

In addition to the thick layers of spinach and artichoke dip, I also added layers of tomato sauce for even more flavor. I really love the flavor combination of the creamy white dip blended with the tomato sauce. The tomato sauce also serves as the saucy component for the uncooked lasagna noodles to absorb while it’s cooking.

This family-friendly lasagna is definitely a crowd-pleaser, it’s easy to make, and it makes a lot so you won’t have to cook dinner again for a few days!

Crockpot Vegan Split Pea Potato Soup

By Stacey Homemaker on March 24, 2020 Leave a Comment

This hearty vegan split pea potato soup is highly satisfying and protein-packed! Loaded with buttery potatoes, tender split green peas, and lots of vegetables; this soup is super easy to make and it’s made in the crockpot with staples that you probably already have in your pantry! Gluten-free, oil-free, dairy-free.

The first week of March, Travis and I were in Disney World for the Epcot Flower and Garden Festival (wanna see the new vegan Garden Graze at the festival? Watch this video!), and we went to Sweet Tomatoes for dinner on one of the nights during our trip.

We love going to Sweet Tomatoes because they make it so easy for vegans to eat safely and healthfully! All of the food choices are labeled if they’re vegan, and they usually have quite a few tasty options. The night we went, they made the most delicious split pea potato soup.

Split peas have a sweet earthy flavor with a texture like lentils (and a similar shape) that pairs perfectly with other vegetables and herbs like thyme, basil, and parsley. The soup tasted super comforting, flavorful, and satisfying.

The soup also contained potatoes along with other vegetables. I love when soups include potatoes because while the soup cooks, the potatoes soften and break down which naturally thickens the broth. It’s so creamy and delicious!

By Stacey Homemaker on January 4, 2020 6 Comments

This gluten-free quinoa flatbread pizza recipe is going to be your new favorite quick and easy vegan dinner! You don’t need to knead the dough or wait for it to rise, this homemade pizza is ready to eat in just 40 minutes! Crispy on the edges, soft in the center, and topped with meaty mushrooms, artichoke hearts, baby arugula, and the creamiest vegan garlic aioli!

*This recipe was originally posted on 1/20/18, but I updated it with better recipe instructions on 1/4/20.

I love pizza, It’s one of my favorite foods of all time! Doesn’t everyone love pizza? For me, it’s right up there with creamy vegan mac and cheese, the best vegan scalloped potatoes, and hearty vegan meatloaf…YUM!

If you’re like me and you also like to make pizza from scratch at home, then I think you’re going to love this recipe just as much as I do! This easy flatbread pizza recipe so quick and simple to make and it only requires 5 ingredients to make the dough!

My issue with making homemade pizza dough is that you have to make the dough, wait for it to rise, and then you have to knead it. I really don’t like kneading the dough, even if it means I get pizza after doing it. Kneading dough is time-consuming, it makes a mess on the counter, and it hurts my hands.

Having to wait for the dough to rise means that you have to plan ahead if you want pizza for dinner. I don’t always remember to plan ahead and prep the dough earlier in the day so I can eat the pizza at a decent dinner time.

That’s how this delicious quinoa flatbread pizza recipe came to fruition! You can blend this quick no-knead pizza dough in just a few minutes and then you can bake it right away! You don’t have to wait for the dough to rise, knead the dough, or even cook the quinoa! It’s so quick and convenient!

To be fair, this isn’t a traditional pizza dough, it’s more of a thin flatbread pizza. However, because it’s made with quinoa, the dough is naturally gluten-free and it gets perfectly crisp while it bakes. It’s quite tasty!

You don’t even need one of those special perforated pizza trays, all you need is a regular old sheet pan. Just blend, bake, and eat! Homemade pizza crust doesn’t get any easier than this!

Vegan Black-Eyed Pea Soup

By Stacey Homemaker on December 31, 2019 2 Comments

Kick off the New Year the right way with this hearty and flavorful smoky black-eyed pea and collard green soup! Every bite is loaded with earthy black-eyed peas, vegan sausage, tender collard greens, and loads of vegetables! Gluten-free and slow cooker instructions included.

I’ve been making this vegan black eyed pea soup with sausage for our New Year’s Day dinner for the last few years, so I thought that it would be perfect timing to share it with you on the last day of 2019! It’s a tradition that we really enjoy and I hope that you try it for your first meal of 2020!

Do you know why it’s traditional to eat this soup on January 1st? In the South, black-eyed peas are considered to be very lucky, collard greens represent money, and cornbread represents gold coin and wealth. When this Southern meal is eaten on the first day of the new year, it’s supposed to bring prosperity and good luck for the rest of the year!

Traditional black eyed pea soup with collard greens is made with a ham bone, ham hocks, bacon, or hog jowls for extra flavor. Obviously, this vegan version doesn’t contain any animal products, so I used minced mushrooms to give that meaty flavor to the soup. I also added sliced vegan sausage to make this soup extra hearty!

While this new years soup is perfect to eat on the first day of the year, you really could enjoy it at any time of the year! It’s easy to make, it tastes delicious, and it’s especially tasty on a cold winter night.
