Mole Black Bean Tostadas with Slaw

Posted on June 10, 2019 | Leave a comment

A few months ago, I developed an easy homemade mole sauce recipe. Most of the time I think of meat based dishes when I think of mole sauce. Therefore, I have been playing with the sauce finding good vegetarian uses, like these mole black bean tostadas with slaw!

If you missed it, the first mole sauce recipe I posted was the mole jackfruit street tacos. This recipe is moist and delicious, but I thought it was lacking protein. Therefore, I started working with mole and black beans. Continue reading →

Cilantro Avocado Pesto Pasta

Posted on May 31, 2019 | Leave a comment

Calling all avocado fans!! If you’re like me, you buy avocados in the bag to the get the best deal. This also means, that you have a lot of avocado to use. This cilantro avocado pesto pasta recipe is so good, I ate it everyday last week to use up my bag of buttery avocado fruits!

In addition to avocados, I have totally fallen in love with chickpea pasta. You could use any pasta in this recipe, but using chickpea pasta gives you a boost of protein, as well as fiber. Two essentials that you need in your diet, that usually wouldn’t be high in a basic pasta dish. Continue reading →

Radish and Corn Wheat Berry Salad

Posted on May 28, 2019 | Leave a comment

For me, radish is one of those mysterious vegetable that I don’t use often. I feel like I don’t know how to use it, so I avoid it. Well, simply put, fresh radish is easy and great in salads. I created this radish and corn wheat berry salad as a challenge to myself to turn radish from mysterious to delicious!

As a kid, I picked fresh radish from the garden with my grandfather. I ate them only because I was involved in the process of digging them up. A radish from the store? My childhood self would have said No way! Continue reading →

Lentil Tacos with Asparagus Pico de Gallo

Posted on May 2, 2019 | 8 comments

Happy May everyone! Spring is such a great time of year, for so many reasons. Warming weather, green grass and flower, and asparagus! My husband said I should have called these spring tacos, but I thought lentil tacos with asparagus pico de gallo was more descriptive.

These tacos are bright and full of fresh flavors thanks to the grassy asparagus, fresh cilantro and lime juice, as well as the tomatoes. Continue reading →

Spiced Turmeric Tofu with Coconut Cilantro Rice

Posted on December 18, 2018 | 4 comments

When I was prepping this recipe for the blog, I couldn’t decide if it should be two recipes or one. In the end, I made it a single recipe for spiced turmeric tofu with coconut cilantro rice. The rice and tofu could be served separately, but they are awesome together!

I’m a huge fan of tofu, while most people are not. I don’t know why, but I have just always loved it. Even before going meatless I would seek out restaurants that had great tofu. Continue reading →

This month, the recipe redux asked us for our favorite healthy recipe celebrating stone fruits! Peaches are actually my second favorite stone fruit, behind cherries, and I love them in these barbecue black bean tacos with peach salsa!

Peaches pair perfectly with other fresh salsa ingredients, like acidic tomatoes, and bright cilantro. Their sweetness really helps to balance the salsa, which is the star of this dish! Continue reading →

Burmese Pickled Ginger and Fried Garlic Salad

Posted on July 13, 2018 | 14 comments

Sometimes you see a recipe that is so intriguing and different, that you just have to try it! That was me when I saw a recipe for Burmese ginger salad. I put my own twists on it and called my version a Burmese pickled ginger and fried garlic salad!

The dressing on this salad is made with fish sauce, and it is really the star of this dish! I primarily eat vegetarian, so sorry to my vegetarian readers, but this recipe was just not the same without the fish sauce! Continue reading →

7 Layer Dip Bean Tostadas

Posted on July 10, 2018 | Leave a comment

I have a question for you today. What are the 7 layers you use in your 7 layer dip? On these 7 layer dip bean tostadas I used refried beans, guacamole, sour cream, salsa, cheese, jalapenos, and tomatoes!

I feel like the base, from beans to cheese, is pretty standard. However, the additional toppings are something that everyone might do a little differently. Continue reading →
