I’m a Gen X’er. I grew up watching shows like Alf and Perfect Strangers, loved crafting mix tapes for all my friends with all of Madonna’s greatest hits, and constantly dreaming about my first date with Jake Ryan. I also enjoyed eating only the finest eighties foods like homemade tuna sandwiches on white bread. I […]

Bread making is a labor of love and when you put together the perfect sandwich, something magical happens to your cooking confidence. This recipe is a tad bit more detailed than most that I normally share, but sometimes the kitchen therapy in undisputed. I used Mary’s Test Kitchen’s French Baguette recipe to get the perfect […]

I have a confession to make. I’m obsessed. It’s with food. Plant based food. And it’s taken over my life. No but seriously, it’s becoming so intense that I eat, breathe, and sleep new ways to cook plant based. I find myself chatting up random (probably unwilling) strangers about how they can use nutritional yeast […]

This easy to make and budget-friendly granola is all of the things. Great sprinkled on yogurt, topped over ice cream, or simply in a bowl with non-dairy milk. That’s all I’ve got to say about this and the reason is I have to get back to making another batch because we devoured it in a […]

Ya’ll I’m so excited to share this recipe with you that I’m literally bursting with joy! I love when I have a recipe breakthrough that changes the game for plant based meals. I love a good, hearty lasagna and this one does not disappoint. It’s artfully filled with layers of Cashew Ricotta Cream, Butternut and […]

Who doesn’t like a warm, comforting bowl of rich and brothy soup to make all of our troubles go away? I used to make soups on the regular during most of the winter, but since it’s still pretty chilly where I live, I wanted to share one of my favorite recipes with you. This simple […]

Simply the best comes to mind when whipping up this delicious and easy to make recipe. A couple of staple pantry ingredients, a good bottle of succulent vino, and a dash of Frank playing on Alexa is all you need to invoke your inner Italiano. My personal favorite trick is to warm up some crusty […]

There really was no reason for me to swear in the recipe title but it felt damn good. I read a headline on social media that said swearing is a sign of an intelligence. Explains a lot and now the neighbors know that I’m not being obnoxious, I’m simply just a genius who’s expressing taboo […]

So there’s this really great Asian grocery store close to my house that I frequent at least once a month. For around $30, I walk out of there with 4 to 5 heavy bags of goodies ranging from fresh tofu to a variety of rice noodles. Creatively, I love cooking with Asian flavors because they […]
