Hoo Hoo Billy. It has been a super-dumb week and a bit. So much stuff has transpired to change the trajectory of my little world and I just did not feel like cooking or blogging or talking to anyone. But, you can only be in a funk for so long before you are known as [...]
Mojo Cubano Potstickers
On June - 1 - 2011
I was snarfy hungry on Saturday afternoon. I think the kids are calling it hangry these days. Whatever the moniker, once my entire family had casually yet pointedly removed themselves from my presence, I realised I needed to eat something right quick or risk solitary confinement for the rest of the weekend. The problem is [...]
Coconut Greens and Rice
On May - 17 - 2011
Perhaps it’s the sunny weather or my increasingly alarming Sriracha addiction, but I am all about fresh, Asian inspired flavours lately. Lot’s of people don’t post stirfry recipes. Stirfries are very subjective: personal, intimate, cherished creations that are so catered to the cook’s very tastebuds that it is almost nerve wracking to let the public [...]
Fat Free Strawberry Sorbet
On May - 11 - 2011
Whew. My posting has been sporadic at best lately. I keep getting engulfed and embroiled in vegan controversy, vacations and children’s plays. I have also been falling into a cooking rut as of late. My husband’s favourite foods are Mexican inspired and me and the monkeys love’em too, so I’ve been oscillating between Asian and [...]
Easy Lentil Tacos
On May - 5 - 2011
YAY! I love any excuse to post Mexican-inspired recipes because those are hands down the recipes that get the most love from the eating enthusiasts in my family. But today is Cinco de Mayo, so I’m totally justified. Except that I am Canadian and Wikipedia claims this day has nothing to do with me. Oh, [...]
Asian-Style Panko Crusted Baked Tofu
On April - 27 - 2011
Earlier this month, I saw a recipe on Vegan Dad that looked very intriguing: Golden Crispy Tofu. I tend to shy away from serving tofu since my manfriend gets a little skittish around cliché vegan food and fabricated protein sources, but this looked so crunchy and familiar that I figured I could trick him into [...]
Black Eyed Pea Stew With Dumplings
On April - 14 - 2011
I only recently got over my dumpling paranoia. I’m still a little nervous every time I need to take that first bite: something that looks that, well, woogy? Is that a good word? How about woogily? Anyway, something that looks that moist and solid at the same time, it’s just intimidating for some reason. Don’t [...]
