I love jasmine rice because of its deep taste and its dark color. It’s fun to work with, and I decided to pair it with grated beets for an even darker-colored dish with an earthier flavor. It’s super delicious, filling and great for digestion! Raw beet is much more easy to eat when its shredded [...]

Baked Cabbage Wedges with Lite Honey Mustard Dressing
November 8, 2012 – 2:35 pm
Cooking greens always results in deliciousness. Cooking heightens leaves’ flavor, breaks down the cell walls of tougher greens (i.e. kale) so that nutrients are easier to assimilate, and make the salad element to a meal way more fun. The best taste – fried greens – but because I like to keep things less guilty around [...]
Mint Vegan Alfredo Sauce
October 25, 2012 – 8:08 am
You don’t need the cream, butter and cheese to enjoy a filling pasta dish. Avocado is a rich, decadent replacement that, when paired with garlic, lemon, and fresh mint leaves, doesn’t carry with it any semblance of guacamole. It’s simply a delicious, creamy Alfredo pasta sauce deserving of all the praise I promise it’ll receive. [...]

September 20, 2012 – 10:00 am
I always go back to this cream sauce because it’s extremely accessible and tastes like it isn’t. The carrot is paired with ginger, making for an earthy tone with robust kicks. Carrot is one of those vegetables that is actually better for you when cooked, because humans don’t chew carrots properly and cooking helps to [...]
Artichoke Pesto Dip
September 7, 2012 – 8:08 am
For some reason, all my local grocer has is purple basil leaves. Granted I had some mint on hand to garnish this pesto dip, otherwise, it has a purple tint through and through. It tastes fantastic nonetheless. This dish is a result of wanting to have a creamy pesto but without nuts or cheese. Both [...]

Roasted Strawberry Balsamic Vinaigrette
June 2, 2012 – 11:21 am
As Summer approaches, fresh salads are looking a lot more appetizing. For me, the only way salads don’t get old fast, is if I have a steady arsenal of dressings at my disposal. With strawberries coming into season, what better time to make a homemade version of strawberry balsamic vinaigrette?
