Howdy, friends! It’s been awhile! How’s everyone? I truly hope this finds you all safe and well and still cooking! These chickpea salmon burgers are a take on my Ma’s “salmon patties” that I grew up with and LOVED, and I think she would approve of this version that launches them straight into the heart …
Hi friends! Springtime in the mountains can sometimes look and feel a lot like winter! We got about 10 inches of snow yesterday and it is too beautiful for words… so I’ll show you a picture instead! We played outside for over an hour, sledding and rolling in the snow, and when we came back …
This sweet & sour chicken can be made with vegan “chicken” pieces or regular chicken breast…either way, it’s perfect for an easy weeknight meal! Howdy, friends… I realise it’s been forever since I’ve passed along a main meal recipe to you. I blame this on the hungry people in my house (myself included!)- just when …
This hearty parmesan eggplant bake is quick enough for a weeknight supper, oozing enough with cheese for the kids to accept the eggplant underneath… and delicious enough to be at extreme risk of being eaten before the photo shoot is done… gulp! Did you ever notice I don’t post too many main dish recipes? Yeah, …
These spicy tofu wraps with citrus tahini dressing just might be the solution to all your lunchtime woes… Lunch is sometimes a problem, do you get me? Like, breakfast is a no-brainer (good thing at 5:45am!) and dinner… well, I usually have some idea of what I’m going to cook. But lunch… it’s usually the …
After returning from KL earlier in the week, I couldn’t get Indian food off my mind. I think I told you in my last post that I didn’t get enough… so I just had to make my own when I came back! I’ve been making this chana masala almost every week for awhile now, and …
This evening I channeled my mother by walking into my kitchen at 5:15pm without any idea what I was going to make for dinner. I opened the refrigerator door and stood perusing its Tupperwared contents, seeking inspiration. A few chunks of leftover roasted pumpkin… no. Newly made coconut kefir… good, but no. Half a box …
I’ll be honest, I wait as long as possible before going to the grocery store after I arrive back home to Manila. It’s just not a pleasure like it is in the U.S. You ex-pats know what I’m talking about… Luckily for me, I normally keep enough food in my pantry to sustain us through …
Do you ever have food nostalgia from what you ate on vacation? I do. I sigh over all those US raspberries… blueberries… cherries… Haas avocados… Ezekiel brand English muffins… tempeh… WHOA… hold the phone… what the heck is TEMPEH?? I know, right?? I ate it for the first time about 2 years ago, and was put …
One of the difficult things about food blogging is that sometimes I make a super-fantastic dish like this roasted eggplant & zucchini casserole… but it’s 6pm, dark outside and my family is clamouring for dinner. And then look what happens to it… I never intended to blog this casserole; in fact, it’s a brand new …
