Kimchi Chickpeas

I have had this breakfast almost every day for the last six months. It has staying power. High in protein and probiotics and very filling, this one is a winner for me. I do use a kimchi sriracha product, but I have instructions here to make your own if you do not have any on… Continue reading Kimchi Chickpeas

Triple Bean Masala Curry and Tofu Cream

I am dipping my toes in Indian cuisine again, and I feeling better than my past attempts. The masala is much more complex than I have tried before. I learned a lot about spices and what I enjoy, so I really increased the flavors in this curry. I hope you enjoy, and please let me… Continue reading Triple Bean Masala Curry and Tofu Cream

Tofu Cream

This cream is a result of my roaming on the internet and falling down a protein rabbit hole. However, this recipe turned out surprisingly well, and it was a good palate cleanser for other spicy dishes that can accompany it. Full disclosure, this tastes like tofu. There is no getting around it, but it will… Continue reading Tofu Cream

Sundried Tomato Chickpea Warm Salad

I got through my comprehensive exam last week! I will be celebrating by cooking, obviously. This dish is by no means Greek (and it is loosely a salad), but the ingredients are heavily inspired by the foods widely abundant in that area of the Mediterranean. It revolves around a jar of sundried tomatoes in olive… Continue reading Sundried Tomato Chickpea Warm Salad

Pink Hummus

The world is in a pink phase right now. Barbie is supporting our economy, and I will gladly enter the internet following by posting pink content. This is yet another beet hummus recipe (I have another on this site already, but this one is prettier). Try it, love it, and bask in the pink of… Continue reading Pink Hummus

Kabocha Squash and Fennel Soup

I love kabocha squash. I will go on record now saying it is the best squash, and I will defend it at all costs. It is rich, savory, and adds a wonderful creaminess when blended in this soup. It can honestly be used as a substitute for egg yolks because it gives that equivalent taste,… Continue reading Kabocha Squash and Fennel Soup

Mixed Lentil Yellow Curry

I have been on a curry kick lately. As it is currently freezing cold where I live, I have consumed exorbitant amounts of ginger, and it has kept me afloat this season. The warmth of this dish along with the complex flavors from the spices makes this perfect winter comfort food. I hope you try… Continue reading Mixed Lentil Yellow Curry

Beet and Tomato Chutney

It’s debatable whether this recipe is a chutney or not, but no matter what the name, it is delicious and ideal for spreading over crackers. The primary flavors in the chutney are tomato-based, so this pairs well with aged cheeses too (I made that up; someone fact-check me). Let me know what y’all think! Ingredients… Continue reading Beet and Tomato Chutney

Red and Yellow Beet Root Hummus

Does anyone else gravitate toward warm colors in the summer? Actually, I kind of gravitate toward warm colors all year round. Anyway, this recipe is another beet root hummus. I’m SORRY! I am who I am, and I love pretty hummus. In this recipe, I sauté the beets so they are a bit softer before… Continue reading Red and Yellow Beet Root Hummus
