These cookies are so freaking good. Coconutty with hints of almond. A great chewy but delicate, melt-in-your mouth texture. The perfect level of sweetness. And dipped chocolatey perfection. A little trip to paradise with each cookie. They are accidentally gluten free, and magically vegan. Well, it’s not really magic. It just required a secret ingredient… A …
This Indian curry is so good it’s going to make you want to buy extra kale every week. You would never guess while eating it, but the spiced kofta hides an entire huge bunch of curly kale in it! When kale is mixed with some mashed potato and chickpea flour, then fried (or baked, your call) to golden …
Spring is in the air! At least, it is in the lower latitudes of the Northern Hemisphere. But whether you are still dealing with near freezing temperatures, or, like me, overheating in a t-shirt while walking your dog in the afternoon, asparagus is finding its way into your grocery store. It’s certainly the best, and some …
You want a pasty? I want a pasty. Corned tempeh pasties! Flakey layered pastry dough filled with a zesty corned tempeh and mashed potato filling that is peppered with scallions, which provide an oniony bite. A riff on your typical meat and potatoes pasty, but with healthy tempeh, which provides a great meaty texture without all the heaviness. …
There’s this idea that enchiladas are a complicated dish to make, but that really doesn’t have to be the case! I certainly fell under this impression, and didn’t try to make them for years after I moved into my post-college kitchen (… I mean, apartment). The funny thing is, I would make smothered burritos, which …

With lots of fiber and protein, and some natural fats from the coconut milk, this meal will leave you feeling …
Hailing from El Salvador, pupusas are a delicious stuffed bread made with masa–the same corn flour product used to make corn tortillas. Cooked up, the masa-based dough is soft and pillowy.
These pomegranate sangria gels are like a sophisticated vegan jello shot. Perfect for your fancy adult parties, or a fun Wednesday night. They are topped with brown butter brandy caramelized pears. They are boozy, sweet and tangy, and super fun to eat. I love the depth of flavor that the Maillard reaction brings to the fruit. The soft …
My husband doesn’t love peanut butter (crazy, I know). He’s alright with peanut stir fry sauces but they’re not his first choice. So, I figured I’d try something different at dinner one night. We had some almond butter in the pantry left over from a delicious chocolate ganache tart, so I figured I’d swap out …
I rarely repeat recipes. It’s not that I don’t like to eat the same things over and over again, because I do. But there are too many new dishes to try, not enough meals in a day, days in a year. And I love eating leftovers, so typically cook in quantities that last us for lunches for a …
