This week I have another peach recipe for you, but this is no ordinary peach recipe. This Thai-style sour salad is made with peaches, tofu, and green beans. The dressing is amazing; it is sour yet complex in a lick-up-every-drop kind of way.

How many times have you adapted a favorite recipe to make it meatless? For vegetarians, this is a common practice. I adapted these spicy vegetarian chipotle quinoa sliders from my chipolte fish sliders recipe.
I identify as a pescatarian. In other words, a vegetarian who still eats fish. I post 90% vegetarian recipes, therefore, I attract more meatless-eaters with my recipes than fish-eaters. Continue reading
