Meatless Meal Ideas #11

Hi everyone,

Here are some meatless meal ideas I found this week and look forward to trying, plus don't these look perfect for this Fall?

Speaking of Fall, is anyone else feeling like we are bypassing Fall and heading straight into Winter in your area?

Though we sometimes have rain on Halloween, we might just get snow this year for it.

And speaking of Halloween, wow is it me or are stores getting ready for Christmas earlier and earlier? It's not even Halloween, Veteran's day or Thanksgiving yet and I am seeing Christmas decor in many of the stores for well over a month now!

Do you enjoy or have any Fall traditions? What do you love about Fall?

For me, I love the change of seasons, for Fall the beautiful colors of the leaves, Fall Decor, the spicy smells in the kitchen, Pumpkin Bread, Pumpkin Spice Lattes (homemade), Soups, Slow Cooking, Family Movies, Scary Movies, and Cider Donuts! lol (Sorry, I know it's more than one, lol)

Sorry to make this so freaking long, I'm still running on little sleep 😴 and caffeine ☕️.

Thank you for stopping by today, blessings,

Missy ❤️️

Meatless Meal Ideas #10

Hi there,

I know it has been a while since I have done one of these posts, but I do hope to make these a regular Monday post, as I am starting to get a routine now with my paralyzed fur family member (more on that on a previous post and I'll post an update soon on her as well)

Many of you know I am a rescue mom 🐾 that is Flexitarian, though I do eat primarily Vegetarian so today though I am not sharing any of my personal recipes as I had often done in the past I am sharing some amazing meatless ideas, that I've come across online from some of my favorite sites as well as many I've tried.

Do you do meatless Mondays or are trying to eat more vegetables?  Maybe flexitarian, vegetarian or vegan?  If so where do you find some of your meal ideas?  Do you have a favorite site for meatless meals?


I hope you enjoy and thank you for stopping by today,

Missy❤️️

One of my favorite go-to sites for meatless meals is The Flexitarian  

Cranberry Baked Oatmeal Cups 


Lime and Coriander Brown Rice Salad


Jerusalem Artichoke Leek and Mushroom Pie


Coconut Tapioca Pudding (Vegan)


Some pins saved to one of my Pinterest boards, many of these tasty meals I've tried and are easy to make additions or even slight modifications to in order to make it more to your own tastes:



Vegan Sweet Potato Hash  from Running on Real Food


Guacamole and Egg Breakfast Bowl from the Kitchen Sanctuary 


Asparagus and Mushroom Vegan Quiche   from Emilie Eats  (another great resource for Vegan meal ideas)


Very tasty and a favorite of mine Vegan Roasted Garlic Mushroom Barley Stew  from Rabbit and Wolves (also a great site for amazing Vegan recipes)


Healthy Veggie Pot Pies  from Choosing Chia

Thank you all for your patience

Hello everyone!

I’m so sorry that it has been a long time no hear.  These past 4 months have been well rough and well honestly, have even tested me despite me being a glass is a half-full person.

From the ceiling collapsing in the upstairs middle room “aka” the cat’s room/dog-less sanctuary so to speak, my health scare while all the industrial fans and dehumidifier were here.

To one of my older rescue poochies Cancer diagnosis, subsequent surgery, so-so wait and see prognosis because of the Cancer grade and type.

To my spinal stenosis that kicked in worse than it has ever been from the furniture moving, laundry hauling up and downstairs, even more, lack of sleep in during the 10 months of our exchange student was here. 

You should have seen me urgently moving to another room all the Cat climbing towers that weigh 75-100 lbs. a piece, litter boxes, beds, toys, before that ceiling collapse!

And… on September 30th one of the GSD’s had an FCE (spinal stroke) and it appears to a complete one as she is now paraplegic.    Things were touch and go So between appointments for her, ordering supplies, cleaning her and up after her, moving her (yeah, she’s 69 lbs. so back isn’t too happy)

Also, a friend confirmed what I knew over a year ago, but she and her doctor claim no, it turns out she does indeed have bc and it pisses me off that should have been diagnosed sooner, thankfully she has a better set of doctors. 

I’m not trying to seem pity party, as It’s not me, not even with all the childhood stuff I’ve been through, going through treatment for C as a teen, I am thankful for all I have and am blessed and know that there is always something to be thankful for.

By the way, I didn’t change my background to this blank background, I had logged on and who knows what happened to the template, oh well, I’ve been looking at new ones anyway, lol.

So, I’m going to be a bit slow getting back into everything, as I am still navigating life with a paraplegic dog, but I haven’t stopped blogging.

I hope you all had a great Summer and are enjoying Fall.   Anyone have a chance to take a fun trip, enjoy some much-needed me-time or hit a goal you’ve been working on? 

Wishing you all a wonderful week, thank you for your support and as always for stopping by.


Take care, be well and please remember to be kind,


Missy ❤️️
