Sometimes you just want to prepare a new kind of stir fry. We’ve devised one that is easy to make, super inexpensive, and utterly delicious.

We don’t know what the weather is like in your neck of the woods, but it’s cold and gloomy here. The skies are pitch-black by 5:00 PM, and we do whatever we can to stay warm. Nothing soothes you more on a cold December evening than a bowl of creamy potato/broccoli soup. The texture is like manna for the throat, and the robust, yet delicate flavor comforts as it fills you up. Invite some friends over for a soup party! Everyone will rave about this delicious meal.

Early spring can be frustrating. Sometimes the temperatures are warm, but then they suddenly plummet, making you wonder if warm weather will ever arrive. Soup is a wonderful staple for chilly nights, as it comforts your heart and warms your belly. We love this delightful vegan cream of broccoli variety—thick, nourishing, inexpensive, and easy to make. Your kitchen will smell wonderful, and you won’t mind holding onto winter just a little bit longer.

This broccoli au gratin is so decadent and rich, you will have trouble believing that it is both vegan and gluten-free. But it is!

Cream of Broccoli soup has been a kitchen staple for decades, but the most popular brand is neither vegan or gluten free. It is such a great ingredient to have on hand in the kitchen because it is versatile; it can be eaten alone or added to a casserole. It can be poured over rice, or poured over a baked potato. The possibilities are endless!
