Homemade Teriyaki Baked Tofu

Posted on November 17, 2017 | 10 comments

Have you ever bought baked tofu at the store? It’s a handy product that is seasoned, cooked, and ready to throw into any dish. When I was first transitioning from being an omnivore to vegetarian, I found that I loved tofu! This is not the case for most people, they find the texture off-putting, so yes, I know I’m weird. I started experimenting with all kinds of ways to enjoy tofu (including this smoked tofu recipe). This homemade teriyaki baked tofu makes weeknight dinners even faster! Continue reading →

Slow Cooker Sweet Potato Paneer Curry

Posted on July 27, 2017 | 6 comments

I have a love hate relationship with curry. On one hand, I absolutely love it. It’s versatile, healthy and easy to make. However, I don’t like most curry powders I have tried, taking curry from love to hate. Instead, I make my own curry powder. It requires stocking lots of spices to make my own blend. The plus side is that I can vary the amount of each spice every time I make a batch so that the flavors vary each time. No one curry dish will be the same as the next in my kitchen! Check out my slow cooker sweet potato paneer curry where I tried using more whole spices! Continue reading →

Five Spice Shrimp Tacos with Rhubarb Ginger Sauce

Posted on July 24, 2017 | 10 comments

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 →

My parents taught me how to make a grilled cheese sandwich at a very young age. They encouraged me to cook as a kid, and maybe that’s why I enjoy it so much today – it takes me back to my youth. Back then, my grilled cheese sandwiches were simply made with cheddar, but this Gouda grilled cheese with apricot ginger spread is a delicious adult take on the simple and convenient grilled cheese sandwich.

Asian Cabbage Baked Egg Rolls with Tempeh

Posted on May 30, 2017 | 12 comments

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 →

Spiced Pumpkin Lentil Soup

Posted on February 13, 2017 | 6 comments

Today we are going to talk about soup. I despised soup as a young adult. Afterall, it came out of a can. When I started to make my own homemade soups, I realized that canned soup did not compare at all in flavor and texture. Homemade soup is a really easy meal to make as well. I enjoy eating soups over fall and winter the most because they help to warm you up. This spiced pumpkin lentil soup is especially warming and filling. Continue reading →

Rhubarb Tagine

Posted on June 1, 2016 | 6 comments

Rhubarb is one of my spring-time favorites. It is most often used in desserts, but that tangy flavor goes well into so many other things! I don’t make that many desserts either, so I have to get creative to find ways to enjoy rhubarb. Rhubarb and dates combine to make a rhubarb tagine that is both tangy and fruity! Continue reading →
