Cajun Red Beans and Rice
Cajun Red Beans and Rice is one of my favorite comfort foods. It is an inexpensive and easy soul-satisfying meal. People have been using beans and rice for decades to feed their families on a budget. With the vegan version of this dish, it is even less expensive to make.

Breakfast Egg Rolls
The hardest part of making this was deciding how much filling I could get inside of the wrapper. Before I could resolve how much, there was the matter of what to put inside the wrapper. What’s inside the Breakfast Egg Rolls? Bacon got fried, the ham received a slicing. And
