This is the healthiest lasagna you could possibly eat, it is packed with phytonutrients! It contains carrot juice, sweet potatoes, fresh tomatoes, spinach, broccoli, carrots, zucchini, onion, garlic and much more!
The sweet potato gives a nice sweetness to the acid tomato base of the lasanga, the sweet potato is very subtle but delicious in this dish. It is not traditional but very delicious!
This recipe was inspired by the Engine 2 Diet recipe, I created a homemade sauce for the lasagna, added carrot juice for depth of flavor and increased nutrition and added a little flair of my own!
I created this recipe last night, I needed something quick and simple and with things I had in my bare cupboards. It was grocery shopping day so this was a quick and easy dinner. It is whole wheat spaghetini pasta with canned tomatoes with garlic and basil, fresh spinach, white beans and spices.

These waffles are gluten free and are sweetened with dates, they are the healthiest waffles you will ever make! I have been trying to come up with delicious waffle recipe creations that are also healthy. Buckwheat is actually not a grain, it is a seed, it does not contain gluten and is a nutrient packed ingredient that really adds a delicious flavor to these gluten free waffles.

I wanted to come up with a delicious summer breakfast recipe and these waffles seemed perfect. I am going to post the recipe as a little teaser for my upcoming book:
Buckwheat Raspberry Vanilla Waffle Recipe
The lost photo for Black Bean Burritos
A good tip to remember: Always make sure you TURN YOUR CAMERA OFF when you are done using it or you might miss a perfect photo opportunity due to a dead battery.
I must confess that I made delicious burritos with homemade tortillas, I had the burrito all dressed up with tofu sour cream, homemade guacamole, homemade salsa and it was photo ready......I pulled out the camera and the battery was dead....ugh.
I'm sorry that I didn't get a photo, but trust me the burritos were delicious.
Hopefully the free raspberry vanilla waffle recipe will make up for my mistake :-D
Stay tuned for more recipes that will be included in the new recipe book.
My husband LOVED this marinated Grilled tofu, however I didn't feel that it was quite cookbook ready.
It was marinated in veggie broth, carrot juice, garlic, tamari, cashew, parsley with other spices.
It turned out good, but in this recipe book there will only be AMAZING recipes. I will still be working on this one and there will be a grilled tofu recipe in the book it will just be more fabulous than this one.
I wanted to show you a photo of what I have been working on....Back to the drawing board for this one.
If you have any suggestions for grilled tofu flavors you would like to see please post a comment and I will create recipes. If you would like mexican cilantro lime, BBQ grilled tofu, Jerk tofu etc.... I am trying to decide what flavors of grilled tofu to create so suggestions would be wonderful!

or crepes for his birthday breakfast so I decided to take this opportunity to try to make the recipe 'cookbook' worthy and I believe this time I succeeded. These crepes were rolled up with delicious blackberry jam.
TIPS For this Recipe:
1. If you want very thin crepes that will roll easily you need to shake the pan back and forth after pouring in the batter to thin it out nicely.
2. Keep the stove at medium heat and let the pan warm up well before cooking. If the pan gets to hot they will burn or get overly browned before they are finished cooking in the middle.

Another Lesson Learned........
The Lost recipe for Chocolate Carmel Cookie Bars
Sadly, I created a Delicious recipe for bars that had a cookie bottom with chopped pecan and coconut flakes, topped with a delicious carmel sauce, topped again with cookie dough and then layered with a lot of dairy free chocolate chips! It was FABULOUS~!
Unfortunately I did NOT write down the recipe and now I am going to have to try and recreate the recipe. I think I can still improve on what I did last time but they were mighty good the way I had made them.
Moral to the story: ALWAYS write down your recipe creations, you never know if it is going to turn out amazing or not so don't risk it.

This was a HUGE hit with my family. I made a beautiful Deep Dish Whole Wheat Crust for the pizza! It takes a little bit of planning but WOW, it is SO worth it. This is what the pizza looked like a gourmet restaurant pizza.

Best Deep Dish Pizza Crust Recipe
I am planning to keep cranking out the recipes, some of the recipes will be posted on the blog so stay tuned. All recipes will be coming out in a new cookbook at the end of the year.
Here is the pizza all cooked with my all purpose cheese sauce on top! YUMMY.
This pizza has onion, bell pepper, mushrooms, broccoli, and sunburgers as toppings. Then I made my cheese sauce to put on top and popped it in the oven for 30 minutes. The crust turned out fabulous, it was soft and very thick. I prefer deep dish pizza so if you like thin crispy crust this would not be the recipe for you.
The cheese sauce on the pizza can be used for just about anything. My family likes it over steamed veggies, sandwiches, you name it! The best part about the cheese sauce: It is made from vegetables!! It is delicious and tastes good on pasta too.
Stay tuned for the next upcoming favorite recipe......
We have moved 4 times in the past year and things have been very crazy. I have still been busy in the kitchen, I just haven't been blogging about it lately!
I am making a commitment today to begin re-creating America's favorite recipes making them healthy, vegan and DELICIOUS!
Over the next year I will be remaking famous recipes into delicious vegan versions and they will be published in my upcoming cookbook.
My most recent creations were:
Vegan Cannelloni
My dad called me at 9:30 at night after he had eaten my cannelloni and said it was AMAZING and if he had the money he would put up the money for me to open a restaurant. YEAH, it's that good!!!
Pictures to come soon!
Vegan Chocolate Chocolate Chip Mint Cookies
Another BIG hit with my extended family!! They were rich and chocolatey and did not contain ANY oil at all!
I have mastered the art of oil-free cookies and they are every bit as good as their fattening counterparts.
New Cookbook coming soon!!
For all my big fans, I will be publishing a cookbook at the end of this year when I finish my year of re-creating America's favorite recipes.
Some of you have asked what happened to The Peaceful Kitchen Website, I could no longer afford to keep the website online. In the next couple of months I will get the website back up and running so you can purchase recipe collections again. Thank you so much for all of your support.
