Baked Ravioli Lasagna

Another back pocket recipe for a simple Baked Ravioli Lasagna – fresh ravioli (store-bought cheese and spinach is what I use), a simmered tomato sauce with ground meat of your choice or crumbled tempeh (which I use often for this dish to make it vegetarian), versatile as you can add additional veggies to it to up the nutrition, layer with some cheese and bake for 45 minutes – and you have a delicious, hearty, crowd pleasing, budget-friendly fabulous dinner!

Browned and Baked Falafel

Browned and Baked Falafel is a wonderful recipe! So full of amazing nutrition and deliciousness. Falafel are often deep fried or at least in a lot of oil in your frying pan. These are quickly browned in a bit of oil and then baked so you get the crispy outside and the soft amazing inside. These can be served in a pita with a load of other things - hummus, tzatziki, greens/spinach, cooked or pickled beets, caramelized or oven roasted onions, and tahini as in the photo – or on a bed or rice with a salad on the side. When in a pita, it can get a bit messy as you devour this goodness, but aren’t the best things in life a little messy? Eat these with wild abandon!

And the best part is that it makes up and cooks up in a short period of time to have lunch or dinner on the table quickly.
