It is no secret to anyone who knows me that I am more than a little bit of a hippie about a lot of things, my diet being one of them. I’m never fully 100% vegan, despite participating in multiple #veganuarys and meatless challenges, but…
I’ve been in a little funk this year, which I’ll explain in a bit in that wordy part of a recipe blog that people love to hate, but one bright spot of 2022 so far has been my second go-round with vegan January. This time…
Of all of my children, I am the most connected to Kenzie’s life experiences. I’m assuming this is because she is a girl and, well, so am I. But, while with the boys I can be more objective and logical when it comes to…
If you’ve been around for a while, you’ve probably heard me talk a little bit at least about the job I had before BurntToast. It was a great job with a good company, but not a great job or even a good job for me,…

Today we’re going to be talking vegan, y’all, and for the first time in a LONG time, I’m going to be sharing a brand new recipe, this Easy Vegan Vegetable Bean Chili. I’m so excited to be back at the recipe game and back in…

Friends, there is no way other way for me to say this. I cannot mince words and I cannot clean it up for you. I’m sorry. But yesterday I sucked. I really did. The day, it wasn’t great. It didn’t start out great,…
I am NOT an anxious person. Yes, I worry about the normal things like my kids, my grey hairs (courtesy of my kids) and what I’m going to eat for dinner. BUT, I don’t get anxious. I don’t stay up at night worrying about things…
I was really sick over Thanksgiving break. Totally not ideal, I know. If I’m being honest, I’ll say that Jeff and I were both sick over break. Starting about Tuesday and really coming on strong from about Thursday morning through Friday night. It was really…
Welcome to BurntToast! My name is Meaghan, and this is my safe space, a place where we can share stories, share recipes and share life. It’s my dream that you can come here, kick your shoes off and pour yourself a glass of wine while you read, laugh, and maybe even hop into the kitchen. This is my heart, for all of you to see. And ALL are welcome here.
