I actually first developed this method with butter for my sauteed zucchini. Now it also works like a charm for sauteing all kinds of vegetables, from heartier ones like these radishes and sauteed mushrooms, to my quick sauteed asparagus and sauteed green beans — and anything in between. Sauté some radishes with me and see for yourself! Ingredients & Substitutions Here I explain the best ingredients for my sauteed radishes recipe, what each one does, and substitution options....

Ingredients & Substitutions Here I explain the best ingredients for cooking zucchini on the stovetop, what each one does in my recipe, and substitution options. For measurements, see the recipe card. The thing is, butter burns when you saute it. Some sauteed zucchini recipes (or other sauteed dishes) combine butter with oil, but that doesn’t actually raise the smoke point of the butter. So, I use a different method to achieve that buttery flavor in my sauteed zucchini....

Spicy Mac and Cheese I don’t know about you, but I douse pretty much anything edible in hot sauce, mac and cheese FULLY included. So creating a spicy mac and cheese makes complete sense to me. Having said, that I was conscious not to just chuck in some hot sauce or chilli flakes and be done with it. In such case, I’ve added a range of spicy ingredients which together actually add a delicious flavour to the dish....

Ingredients & Substitutions Here I explain the best ingredients for sugar free caramel sauce, what each one does in the recipe, and substitution options. For measurements, see the recipe card. This recipe has been so popular that I included it in my Easy Keto Carboholics’ Cookbook! Butter – For the best flavor, use salted butter. However, if you are watching your salt intake, you could use unsalted butter instead. Besti Brown Monk Fruit Allulose Blend – I opted to use the brown version of Besti because I love the flavor of brown sugar....

Mango is one of my favorite fruits (the other favorite is Guava) and I believe it’s not only the best fruit but is also one of the most delicious ingredients in this world. Anything that has real mango in it tastes delicious. Especially, the sweet, juicy varieties of Indian mangoes like dasheri and chaunsa. I have already shared a lot of mango recipes on my blog and most of them are desserts....

Origins of the Rice Bowl Although it’s difficult to pinpoint exactly where and when rice bowls came into existence, it seems the dish most likely originated in Japan and spread through China, Korea, and subsequently other parts of Asia. Classic Components of a Rice Bowl One of the great things about rice bowl recipes is that they are perfect for cooks who enjoy being creative and resourceful in the kitchen. When it comes to rice bowl ingredients, there really are no limits!...

I know halloumi in a curry might seem like an odd concept, but it totally works. Typically if you were putting cheese in a curry you’d use Paneer, but it’s not easy to get your hands on in the UK. Halloumi offers a similar texture, as both cheeses have extremely high melting points, meaning they turn nice and soft but don’t crumble apart. Making Halloumi Curry I guess in essence I should have called this a ‘halloumi and sweet potato chickpea curry’, but that’s just too much of a darn mouthful....

Dessert is my favorite meal. Admit it: it’s yours too! Even if I don’t have it every day, dessert totally counts as a meal. And chocolate cake has been my lifelong favorite dessert.

Spring is in the air, isn’t it? Okay, spring has been in the air all winter long, at least where I live. It’s been super warm and we haven’t had one real snow day. I know some folks will disagree with me, but I find this to be a bit of a downer. It feels like we never got a real winter. And I love winter! Now that spring is almost officially here I suppose I’ll have to make the best of it....

What You’ll Need For the Cake Flour. I’ve only tested the recipe with all-purpose wheat flour, so try any other varieties at your own risk....

Let’s talk about this vegetable garden. I think I’ve gotten in a bit over my head. After an evening of thunderstorms earlier this week, I awoke to find that my enormous tomato plants collapsed on top of my itty-bitty pepper plants. I planted them right next to each other. Who knew they wouldn’t end up the same size? The seedlings were pretty darn close. Oh, and also, apparently tomato cages are not one size fits all....

This recipe goes many places I never thought I’d go. First of all, there’s Hamburger Helper. This isn’t something I ever ate growing up, and to be honest, I kind of thought it sounded terrible. Also, this is a one-pot pasta recipe. Conventional Hamburger Helper is a one-pot deal, but I was still reluctant to go there, because in the past I’ve tried and tried to create a good one-pot pasta recipe, but was just never happy with the results....

I don’t know about you, but the dairy-free ice cream section of my supermarket is just about the best thing ever. I mean, it’s kind of mind blowing to me that a decade or so ago you’d have to go to a health food store just to find any vegan ice cream, whereas now there are a million and one options, taking up a substantial portion of the frozen treat section of most stores!...

I’m going to be straight with you guys: back when I ate meat, Actually, I really didn’t like any kind of fish. Hey, I was a kid, and a lot of kids aren’t into fish, right? So I tend to have a hard time developing veganized recipes for dishes that include fish. Sometimes I need a little help! I had a reader suggest the use of dulse flakes to give that ocean-y flavor to my vegan crab cakes, and well, I thought it was a great idea....

Pasta puttanesca is one of my favorite pasta dishes. It has so much going for it! I mean, it’s pasta. That alone scores big points. And it’s got tomato sauce. Plain old pasta with tomato sauce is plenty to keep me happy. But then you’ve got lots of punch flavor additions to make a super zesty, flavor-packed sauce! What is Puttanesca Sauce? Okay, this is where it gets awkward. “Puttanesca” literally translates to “prostitute....
