Eat, Recycle, Repeat

My mom and younger brother are visiting for the next few weeks, so I’m sure I’ll have some adventures to share quite soon.  In lieu of a traditional Easter Dinner, we’ll be traveling around Tokyo & Kyoto checking out cherry blossoms. In case you need a few meal ideas, here are some recipes I’d serve [...]

My dear friend Shirley has just launched a fabulous new site: All Gluten Free Desserts! Shirley is an amazing lynchpin in the gluten-free/allergy-friendly/paleo/food blogger community. She loves bringing people together (virtually and in person) and she loves sharing others recipes in order to help us all have wonderful food memories. I send many friends who [...]

The other day I was searching for an email my brother had sent me and I typed “Joe radish” into the search bar. We tend to like the same sorts of food – and by like I mean rave like addicts – such as grilled vegetables, coconut anything, and of course sweet potatoes. We email at [...]

Last night my friend asked me what my favorite thing was in my fridge at that time. I couldn’t come up with a good response until today. Leftovers. Leftovers are glorious. My usual strategy is to cook two big meals on the weekend: turkey & vegetable soup, maybe a Thai, Nepalese or Indian curry, or [...]

I wanted to write “A Stroke of Sleep Deprived Squash Genius”, but I thought that might get a little long. International travel, my friends, is a terrifically wonderful thing. So often we can take for granted the fact that we can get in a giant metal bird and FLY. Honestly, whenever I get a little [...]

I was trying to decide what recipe to post this week. I wanted to share something that I eat often, and finally it dawned on me: salad. I eat it every day, sometimes twice a day as lunch and part of dinner. And I NEVER, ever get tired of it. When I travel for a [...]

I was never a huge fan of cabbage as a child. It fell under the category of over-boiled, soggy vegetables, ruined by unfortunate preparation methods (Oh how I lament how many people must have been turned off lovely broiled Brussels sprouts or lightly sautéed spinach because they’ve only ever experienced bland, boiled, limp nothingness). And [...]

First off I must say that I was inspired by two things in this post – Gluten Free Girl’s “that persistent hope” on keeping her kitchen organized and La Fuji Mama’s podcast “Miso Hungry”. I’m always looking for ways to smooth out simple processes in the kitchen to make cooking, but more so cleaning up [...]

On Sunday I was perusing a few food blogs, and I came upon this video from the Spunky Coconut. I haven’t eaten chocolate in quite a few months, since 1. it is hard to find any without refined sugar or sweeteners and 2. I haven’t craved it nearly as much since I chose to stop [...]
