Eco-Cooking: Episode 1 Carrot Top Pesto

Eco-Cooking: Episode 1 Carrot Top Pesto

What can we be doing as individuals to help our planet? Well, it starts on our plate. No, I’m not trying to “brainwash” you into becoming vegan, but I am trying to raise awareness on how our actions affect the environment (and mostly negatively, unfortunately). For instance – food waste. Over 40% of the food …

Banana Peel “Pulled Pork”

Banana Peel “Pulled Pork”

You heard that right! Banana peels. No this isn’t a joke and you shouldn’t mock it or immediately turn away. Didn’t think banana peels were edible? Think again. Banana peels actually have more potassium and fiber than the banana flesh. So yeah! They’re edible and nutritious. Most vegetable and fruit skins/peels are edible. You just …

Watermelon Rose Daquiri

Watermelon Rose Daquiri

Everything has changed for us this year – some for the better, some for the worse. The one thing that has been a challenge for many, including myself, is the lack of travel. If you have the opportunity and are privileged enough to live a life where you can freely travel, then you likely understand …

Whole Roasted Cauliflower with Turmeric, Fennel Seed, & Dates

Whole Roasted Cauliflower with Turmeric, Fennel Seed, & Dates

Honestly, this doesn’t need a fancy intro. You like cauliflower, I like cauliflower. We’re all screaming for… CAULIFLOWER. But! This ain’t no any old cauliflower rice or cauliflower wings. This is a Whole Roasted Cauli baby (yes I refer to my vegetables as babies. Back off), with a pretty unique marinade. And I recommend starting …

Loaded “Egg” Sandwich feat. Green Chutney Aioli

Loaded “Egg” Sandwich feat. Green Chutney Aioli

No need for me to re-emphasize my love for JUST egg. It’s super versatile, delish, protein-packed and completely plant based! So when they asked me if I wanted to try their brand new Folded Egg before it hit grocery store freezers, I was beyond eggcited – see what I did there? Heheheh. It’s super convenient …

Smashed Crispy Potatoes with Calabrian Chili Basil Pesto & Lemon “Cream”

Smashed Crispy Potatoes with Calabrian Chili Basil Pesto & Lemon “Cream”

I know taters get a bad rep and honestly, I don’t know why! Obviously, if we eat anything with high starch and carb content it’s not “good” for you, because those break down into sugars. But anything is moderation is good by me. Plus, I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again, being a …

Southwestern Butternut Squash Bisque

Southwestern Butternut Squash Bisque

Honestly, never been a huge soup person with a few exceptions – my Maa’s tomato soup with homemade croutons, pasta fagioli (cause I’m basically half Italian growing up in Shaolin), and Panera’s broccoli cheddar soup, until I found out it’s made with chicken stock and has enough fat and sodium for a months worth of …

Whole Roasted Stuffed Pumpkin with Rice (vegan)

Whole Roasted Stuffed Pumpkin with Rice (vegan)

I recently watched an episode of Anthony Bourdain when he was in Armenia. The social and political historical turmoil of the country was interesting, but of course the food was MUCH more interesting to me. And that’s where I first saw – a Whole Roasted Pumpkin. They stuffed the pumpkin with a delicious rice, covered …
