The vegan truffle parmesan #fries with vegan ranch

The vegan truffle parmesan #fries with vegan ranch and the #vegan avocado roll were the perfect #plantbased #appetizers to share with the table last Saturday in #rochester_mn. Absolutely 💚 @craveamerica 🌱menu for all the options.

We finally crossed off a brewery we’ve been want

We finally crossed off a brewery we’ve been wanting to visit. Lovely setting, big taproom with really awesome, huge tables, huge BBQ menu (no plant- based options 👎🏼) and great beer! Especially loved the #Hefeweizen and the chocolate milk porter. Great service and really set up for being socially distanced. We’ll definitely go back.

We may or may not have planned a trip to @catchdes

We may or may not have planned a trip to @catchdesmoines specifically to go to @dirtburgerdm ! It was well worth the drive. We get to the area a couple times a year and Dirt Burger will be our new haunt.

What we loved most about the burger was it wasn’t Beyond Meat or Beyond Burger. Don’t get us wrong, we’re happy to see efforts of other restaurants at least offer those options but they’re not our favorite. This burger was so incredible., as was the mushroom burger Kelly ordered. You basically can’t go wrong with whatever burger you chose.

Dirt Burger patties are made of gram beans, chick peas, buckwheat, flax, spinach, carrots, broccoli, beats, garlic, parsley, sweet potato, dried mushrooms salt, spices and Nutritional yeast. Dusty ordered the “Chicago” - a garlic herb pattie, gardinera, Mayo, toasted red peppers and onions, fried pickles and arugula. Every bite was absolutely delicious.

June is half over and we finally got our grill rea

June is half over and we finally got our grill ready to use. That was the excuse Kelly needed to make a @tjmaxx run for the first time in almost 4 months in hopes of finding some new grilling pans. Mission accomplished!
We grilled up some potato wedges sprinkled with @penzey_spices Chicago Seasoning along side some beautiful, portobello mushrooms we picked up at @costco . We made a “thrown together” wild rice salad using wild rice that was harvested from a friends lake home up north then added diced celery, clementines, pears, red grapes, walnuts and steamed broccoli then tossed it with some red wine vinegar. Super good and very easy.
Have you had the black truffle ketchup from @traderjoes yet?! Go get yourself some! We will be stocking up on that for sure.
We already can’t wait to grill tomorrow night!

We received our first CSA of the season and are so

We received our first CSA of the season and are so happy it’s this time of year again in MN. We received spinach, kale, radishes and bok Choy. Thus far, we’ve made spinach salads and tried some new recipes with the radishes- we baked them like potatoes! Dusty used the recipe from @wickedspatula sans oil. I’m not a huge radish fan and this was a good way to use up the bunch. I am also trying to make pickled radishes so I will know how those are in a few days. We also made maple-glazed Bok Choy from @amindfullmom which was very good. Do you like radishes and If so do you eat them plain or do you have a good recipe? #CSA #locallygrown #supportlocal #bokchoy #radishes #kaleyeah #spinach #veganfooddiary #veganeats #plantpowered #eatyourveggies #eattherainbow #plantbaseddiet #plantbased #tasteslikesummer
