Last week while flipping through a magazine and eating my morning breakfast, I came across an idea. Why not top tostadas with slaw! Thus, my black bean tostadas with garlic cabbage slaw recipe was born.
Black bean tacos with slaw is one of my all-time favorite meals. I can’t believe I never thought to put cabbage slaw on a tostada before now! Continue reading

I love the crunchy texture of egg roll wrappers, and have recently been researching new filling ideas. Buffalo chicken egg rolls are popular, so naturally I had to re-do them vegetarian style! Meet baked buffalo egg rolls with tempeh!
I love the hefty serving of veggies in classic egg rolls, including cabbage and carrot . Therefore, in this recipe, I decided to keep the classic egg roll filling, but season it with spicy buffalo sauce. Continue reading

Cabbage is one of my favorite veggies I keep in the fridge for fast easy meals. This week, I am sharing a Chinese green cabbage noodle stir fry recipe.
Red cabbage is my go-to cabbage variety. Green cabbage has a little less flavor, and of course, less color. Sometimes, I find green cabbage harder to use because of what it is missing in comparison to red. Continue reading

Have you guys tried chinese 5-spice powder yet? It’s been a popular up-and-coming spice for a while now, and I’m just now getting on board. Chinese five-spice is a blend of Szechwan pepper, star anise, cinnamon, cloves, and fennel. It has a wonderfully warming characteristic that pairs perfectly with other Asian flavors, such as ginger, and is not spicy. My five spice shrimp tacos with rhubarb ginger sauce are an amazing twist between Asian and Mexican cuisines! Continue reading
One of the most fun things about recipe development is taking a recipe you love, and adapting it. Sometimes it’s about making it healthier, or adapting it to fit different diets. If you read here often, you know how much I love fish tacos. However, a lot of readers here are not looking for fish based recipes (I don’t post many). Therefore, I created chipotle cauliflower hummus tacos with cumin slaw to be vegan, and just as delicious! Continue reading

When I was a kid, one of my parents favorite meals was blackened salmon. I always remembered that meal because the first time we tried it as a family, we didn’t realize how spicy the seasoning was going to be!! It was so flavorful, but I remember downing glasses of milk try to keep my mouth from catching fire. In subsequent trials, my parents learned the right amount of seasonings to use, and used it sparingly for us kids. Today blackening seasoning is still a favorite of mine, so I decided to try it in one of my favorite foods, fish tacos. These spicy blackened fish tacos with lime crema were a hit at my house! Continue reading

I’m not really a side dish person. I love to cook. It’s a great release at the end of the day to come home and find my rhythm in the kitchen. However, I find it most enjoyable when there are fewer pieces of the puzzle to keep track of. Side dishes don’t fit that routine well, therefore I tend to make and eat a single thing every night. These Asian cabbage baked egg rolls with tempeh fit that theme perfectly. Continue reading

It’s time for Po’Boys my friends! The Po’Boy is a Louisiana style sub sandwich that can be as creative as you are. Po’boys got there name from a restaurant in New Orleans during a local factory strike. The restaurant served free sandwiches to the “poor boys” that were on strike. My shrimp po’ boys with zingy slaw is a traditional take on the sandwich, having fried seafood and dressed with coleslaw! Continue reading
