Burrito Bowl

Chipotle isn't the only place to get a great burrito bowl—you can make one yourself at home! Learn how with this fresh, easy, and delicious recipe.

dinner

I’ve been on a BIG burrito bowl kick for the last few months…but I haven’t been getting them from Chipotle. Nope—I’ve been turning out delicious DIY burrito bowls at home! I started making them after I developed these copycat Chipotle sofritas in the fall, and I realized that there was no component of my typical Chipotle order that I couldn’t make myself. Cilantro lime rice? Check. Black beans? Check. Fajita veggies, corn salsa, and guac? Check, check, and check. I’m not looking back! These homemade bowls are fresh, flavorful, perfect for meal prep, and super cost-effective. If you’re a burrito…

Favorite Veggie Pizza

Piled with flavorful veggies like peppers and artichokes, this vegetarian pizza will be a hit at your next pizza night! Fresh basil takes it over the top.

vegetarian

If you were to ask me, “What’s the best vegetarian pizza in Chicago?”, I’d have to ask a few followup questions before I answered. Like, what kind of veggie pizza are we talking here? Because for me, when it comes to pizza, there isn’t one best. Sometimes I’m in the mood for a Neapolitan-style pie with an airy crust and minimal toppings. And sometimes I want something inventive, like the vegan spinach & ranch pizza at Middlebrow in Logan Square. And then there are those nights when nothing but a classic delivery pizza will do. That’s where this veggie pizza…

This vegan pancakes recipe calls for 10 simple ingredients that you likely have in your pantry right now.
