Rice Pasta – Aglio e Olio

On May 3, 2009 · 1 Comment

I’ll be the first to admit that this whole cleanse thing is TOUGH.  I’m a snacker.  I love eating potato chips, french fries, cookies – you name it!  Not being able to snack on things other than fruits and nuts isn’t the greatest.  AND I can’t even eat ALL nuts.  No peanuts, pistachios or cashews!  [...]

Spring Cleansing

On April 29, 2009 · Leave a Comment

I recently started seeing a naturopath.  Not for any particular ailment (I’m overall healthy – knock on wood) but just for overall health and well-being.  I’m a little kooky in that I tend to be intrigued by alternative medicines, extremely healthy foods (you wouldn’t know that by my Sweet and Sour post) etc.  So [...]

NYC Eats #2

On April 19, 2009 · Leave a Comment

I’m back from a lovely long weekend in one of my fave cities/former home… New York!

When I go to NYC I’m usually plotting out what I’d like to eat and then building my activities around where I will be for my next meal.  I’m not kidding.  I mean, why eat crappy food in a [...]

Manzana Chili Verde

On February 11, 2009 · 2 Comments

I’ve been in the mood to eat more veggies recently.   I think it’s my body’s way of telling me to get healthy and not let these dreary winter months weigh on me.  When I want to eat healthy(ish) there are a few cookbooks that I turn to including The Whole Foods Market [...]

Vegan Jamaican Yuca Shepherd’s Pie

On February 9, 2009 · 3 Comments

I recently acquired a copy of Veganomicon by Isa Chandra Moskowitz and Terry Hope Romero.  It’s a really fun vegan 300+ page cookbook that has a lot of really interesting vegan recipes.  What I love about veganomicon is that the focus isn’t on making meaty recipes vegan but still keeping a [...]

Vegan Pumpkin Muffins

On April 11, 2008 · Leave a Comment

This one is from the vault of my brief period as a vegan. I have a few recipes that I haven’t posted from that time that may pop up every once in a while. I’m back from a brief hiatus. Somewhere between trying to get my taxes done, accomplishing life goals and [...]

Griddled Sesame and Garlic Tofu with Wilted Bok Choy

On March 22, 2008 · Leave a Comment

Sometimes Whole Foods hits the nail on the head.  I ended up with another half brick of tofu that I was trying to get rid of and started flipping through the Whole Foods Cookbook when I came across this recipe.

It was clearly up my alley.  Tofu? good.  Miso? good.  Bok Choy? [...]

Chipotle Black Bean Soup

On March 20, 2008 · Leave a Comment

Something in the combination of dreary winter days and being a vegan (albeit temporarily) has me craving soup. The good thing about soup is that usually it doesn’t take a lot of work to make a recipe vegan. Swap out chicken broth for veggie broth, don’t use meats and [...]

Channa Masala

On March 19, 2008 · 2 Comments

So after my not so pleasant Vegetable Curry effort I figured I should go ahead and restore my faith in Madhur Jaffrey. I made this recipe once before with disastrous results, completely my fault. As you can see the recipe calls for a green chile, well when I first made it I [...]

Mixed Vegetable Curry

On March 16, 2008 · Leave a Comment

Some dishes are winners, and well… some dishes not so much.

I had hopes for this one. I LOVE Madhur Jaffrey. I want her to come over to my place so that we can cook together and drink Indian beers and watch an Eastenders marathon (seriously that would be the best.day.ever). [...]
