Delicious dinner inspiration and easy to make. This vegan, gluten-free dinner option is a favorite of mine and an easy midweek go-to dinner. Quinoa, sweet potato, and kidney bean burgers that you can serve in a bun or on a bed of spinach topped with avocado, tomato, sauteed or pickled red onion, cilantro/coriander, and other favorite toppings. Yum!

Cheesy Kale Chips
An addictive alternative made with nutritional yeast. Who would have thought that leafy green chips loaded with nutrients could be so addictive? Nutritional yeast is deactivated yeast; it's not alive and has a slightly cheesy flavor which many vegans like to use as a cheese substitute. It can be found at most health food stores and some big-chain grocery stores.
