Mediterranean white beans, simmered in a tomato rosemary sauce. It's the fast, easy, plant-based dinner you never knew you needed! A little white w**e adds depth, and the rest is perfect with a glass of w**e. You can make this on weekends, but I love it as beans on toast as a fast one-skillet dinner during the week. Save this for your next busy weeknight dinner. Full recipe at Sinful Kitchen, or comment "recipe" and I will email it to you.

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 medium yellow onion, finely diced
4 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons tomato paste
¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes, optional
⅓ cup dry white w**e
1 can (15 ounces) crushed tomatoes
⅓ cup vegetable broth
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh rosemary
2 cans (15 ounces each) cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
½ teaspoon kosher salt, plus more to taste
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
¼ cup chopped fresh parsley

This is what happened when I stopped covering eggplant Parmesan in a thick layer of breadcrumbs.

I lightly flour the eggplant and fry it until golden, then layer it with marinara, vegan Parmesan, and mozzarella. The whole thing finishes right in the skillet until the cheese melts and the sauce bubbles around the edges.

You still get everything I love about eggplant Parmesan, but the eggplant actually gets to be the star.

Would you miss the breadcrumbs?

Roasting makes all the difference in this Roasted Red Pepper and Tomato Soup.

Instead of simmering everything from raw, I roast the tomatoes, red bell peppers, onion, and garlic first. It concentrates their flavor and brings out their natural sweetness.

After blending, a little vegan cream makes the soup rich and velvety, and a tiny touch of red w**e vinegar balances everything out.

Serve it with plenty of crusty bread for dipping.

Full recipe on Sinful Kitchen.

▢ 4 medium red bell peppers, seeded and quartered
▢ 1 ½ pounds Roma or vine tomatoes, halved
▢ 1 medium yellow onion, cut into wedges
▢ 1 whole head garlic
▢ 2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon olive oil, divided
▢ 1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more to taste
▢ ½ teaspoon black pepper
▢ 2 tablespoons tomato paste
▢ 2 cups vegetable broth
▢ ½ teaspoon dried oregano
▢ ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes, optional
▢ ½ cup vegan heavy cream
▢ 1 teaspoon red w**e vinegar, plus more to taste
▢ ¼ cup fresh basil leaves

I wanted this recipe to feel like an actual dinner, not another bowl of orzo with a few chickpeas mixed into it. Because if we are being honest that sounds boring AF.

So the chickpeas are tossed with fresh rosemary, sliced garlic and red pepper flakes. Than simmered in vegetable broth until they become tender and loaded with flavor.

I serve them with lemony spinach orzo and balsamic-blistered tomatoes. This recipe is a full meal. You don't have to think about what to eat or serve your family, I have it ready for you to make!

Ingredients: chickpeas, orzo, spinach, tomatoes, fresh rosemary, garlic, lemon, vegetable broth, olive oil and balsamic vinegar.
