Chickpea Salmon Burgers
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 …
Spaghetti & Turkey Meatballs
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 …

My Mother was Right About Everything
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 …
How to Make Seitan
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 …
