Fried rice is one of my go-to formulas for a quick and easy dinner. It’s always easy to make, super customizable, delicious, and comes together in a flash. I have a zillion and one different ways of cooking up fried rice, from classic vegan fried rice to pineapple fried rice, but vegan kimchi fried rice is one of my absolute favorites. Kimchi packs a real flavor punch, so it always turns out delicious!...
One time, years and years ago, when cheese was a big part of my life, I got into an argument with a friend who tried to order quesadillas at a restaurant…without the cheese. Everybody knows that cheese is essential to a quesadilla right? I thought I knew everything back then. It took a food blog for me to realize that no, cheese is not, in fact, essential to a delicious quesadilla....
I was never into eggs. A lot of people think that this means I’m also not a “breakfast person.” So not true! Breakfast is my favorite! And tofu scramble is my absolute favorite savory, protein rich, vegan breakfast. It’s so good that you will want to eat it for lunch and dinner too (I often do!). I’ve made many versions of this dish over the years, but this one has been refined and perfected, and it’s my absolute favorite tofu scramble recipe....
From my dreams? My pregnancy-induced cravings that know no bounds whatsoever? You know.. I once wrote a poem about pregnancy cravings, and I’d like to take this opportunity to share the ode with you now. My only regret is that I’m limited in my presentation, preferring, of course, a dramatic spoken-word setting. They spring from nothingness Latent in the dark hollowsScratchingClawing Like an unchained beast afterYears of a chainTo ignore the presence would be to close your eyesIn the middle of a hail storm and claim youFeel nothingJust lift your arms out from your sides with palms turned up to the skies and say“What a beautiful autumn sunset”No, you relinquish control because the surrender is more satisfying than free falling backwards into a soft stuffed bed of goose downYou give in because hot damn mashed potatoes Ahh, yes....

Can we talk about my low, low expectations for this recipe? Really, though. I was making it like, “Haha, this is fun. This a fun waste of time. I mean, there is no way this is going to be really damn good. And ‘really damn good’ is the requirement for an appearance on my blog, didn’t you know that? So this is a fun waste of time.” And then I had a bite and punched the person next to me, just out of sheer knee-jerk reaction, because I had not been eating this my whole life and I felt deeply deprived....

Parmesan Roasted Cauliflower Look I’m gonna be honest with you here. I’m actually not a huge fan of cauliflower in most contexts. There, I said it.

It transforms the texture and flavour into something beyond delicious. When you add a few more goodies it’s gonna be the masterpiece at your next roast dinner 😏...

Though I am a morning person, waking up early becomes challenging even for me on chilly mornings. Having something to look forward to in the morning makes it easier. For me, the time that I get to spend alone with my diary and a glass of warm water or a cup of tea is one such thing that motivates me to wake up early. The other thing that motivates me to wake up on time is a tasty and comforting breakfast that can also be prepared quickly....

Radishes – You’ll need about 2 bunches of radishes for my recipe (make my radish salad if you have more!). Wash them, and trim away the roots and greens. Some roasted radish recipes cook them whole or cut in half, but I prefer to quarter them because it provides more surface area to brown and caramelize… a....
Nothing like a little pressure, eh? I’ve written a love letter to Jeni’s ice cream already, so I’ll skip the sonnet this time (but seriously.. best ever) and just gush about this particular recipe. It caught my eye when I was paging through my Jeni’s cookbook, planning a recipe for Father’s Day this year. My own father loves strawberry ice cream, and I had bought O a freaking grill so I figure he would be solid eating whatever....
I have a confession: I’ve been stress-eating Samoas. Usually I can hold off during Girl Scout Cookie season, but this year I just had way too many friends’ kids looking at me with their little Bambi eyes, begging me to fill out their order sheets with a resounding “14” in the Samoas column. And being pregnant? I kind of have this semi excuse + loco amount of stress prepping for maternity leave that, together, result in way too many moments alone on the couch with an open box and the cellophane positively torn off....
Is there just something about hand-held food? All the goodness is bundled and squeezed into a little hand-held package. Pie is delicious. Hand pie is at least equally delicious (or maybe more, because there’s more crust!), and it fits into the palm of your hand. I’ve covered the heck out of savory vegan pies before. (If you haven’t caught any of those recipes, be sure to check out my vegan pot pie, chickpea pot pie, and vegan shepherd’s pie....
I’ve been sitting on this recipe for over a year. And that’s kind of a shame because these buns are so good! So why the wait? Well, I guess I haven’t been sitting on the entire recipe. I developed the recipe for the shiitake mushroom filling last summer after spotting frozen bao buns (that just happened to be vegan!) at an Asian market. Sometimes I do that: I see some hard-to-find ingredient that I’ve been longing for and develop a recipe around it only to realize most people won’t be able to get ahold of it and won’t get to make the recipe....
