Digaag Quimbe
I picked this recipe this week because it was simple and from a cuisine I don't do very often. I have done a few African recipes, mostly North African. Digaag Quimbe is an East African recipe for coconut yogurt chicken. I found a recipe for this from Bon Appetit. While this is a chicken stew [...]
Tempeh and Walnut Tacos
I'm really busy this weekend, so I was looking for an easy dinner. I came across the recipe for Vegan Tempeh-Walnut Tacos from Better Homes and Gardens and it looked like a great vegetarian option that was quick and easy. I plan to replace the tortillas in this recipe with rice to make the tacos [...]
Spinach Dal
I am really loving some lentil dishes lately. Another week where I need something easy. Indian cuisine is a good one for that. Lots of flavor, without a lot of fuss. The key with Indian food is to not be intimidated by the long ingredient list. Many Indian dishes require you make a masala. That [...]
Crunchy Thai Peanut and Quinoa Salad
This week is another simple recipe. I've been so busy the last few weeks, complicated recipes are not going to happen. When I ran across this recipe for Crunchy Thai Peanut and Quinoa Salad from Cookie and Kate, I knew I had to adapt it. In our house I cannot go wrong with anything made [...]
Egyptian Style Salad
The recipe for this post is more about making some vegan cheese than the recipe itself. The recipe is awesome. America's Test Kitchen does a lot of really great recipes. They recently posted a recipe for Egyptian Barley Salad and I knew I could make some adjustments and turn this from a side dish to [...]
Vegan Chorizo
I have been exploring more vegan dishes lately. Not because I want to become a vegan. I like eggs and cheese too much for that. Since I have recently become dairy-free, the best place to look for recipes is with the vegans. I will never give up all of my animal products, but they do [...]
To’Fish Fillet
I would have never been inspired to make this dish if it wasn't for my trip to Denver recently. I'm talking about my wonderful meals at City O' City. I've had plenty of the type of fried fish fillet sandwich with cheese and soft breading we know and love. I'm not ashamed to admit that [...]
Weight Maintenace – The struggle is real
I'm writing this today because weight maintenance is becoming a struggle. For 2.5 years, I had no trouble maintaining my weight. I had everything figured out. My diet was on track with a variety of food I love. My workouts were hard and fun. However, over the last year or so, everything changed. First, perimenopause [...]
Brick Lane Burger
Yes, another veggie burger recipe. I have been running into a bunch of them to try. I just can't help myself. This burger recipe is an Indian inspired burger recipe called the Brick Lane burger from Jamie Oliver. One thing I liked about right off the bat is that it was already gluten free. It [...]
