Peppers Stuffed w/ Rice, Mushrooms, & Turkey

I don’t know why, but there is something so warm and comforting about stuffed peppers. A little while back when a friend of mine lost her father, I made these stuffed peppers, hoping to comfort her as well.

30 Days to Easy Gluten-Free Living: Gluten-Free on a Budget

This post is part of the 30 Days to Easy Gluten-Free Living event. Check out all the other great posts here. There is a misconception that maintaining a gluten-free diet is really expensive. If you buy all of the fancy baked goods and gluten-free bread that costs $8.00 per loaf, yeah–living gluten-free is going to…

Recipe Remix: Savory Sage Corn Kugel

My corn kugel is one of my most popular recipes, and a go-to side dish for almost any meal (thank you BL for introducing me to it!). While I love the sweetness of this kugel, I recently made delicious savory pumpkin muffins, and decided I’d try a savory version of corn kugel too. If possible,…

Vegan Curry-Maple Roasted Nuts

I know I’ve posted a lot of roasted nut recipes, but hey, I like nuts :) This time I went sweet and spicy with curry, ginger, and maple. I chose to use half almonds and half cashews, but you could use any nut you want–macadamia, pecan, walnut, etc. These nuts aren’t too spicy, so add…

Lemon & Dill Gravlax

Like a good Jewish girl, I’m a fan of lox, but I’m not a fan of the chemically flavor you get from packaged lox. I’ve seen lots of recipes for gravlax, so I decided to make it for Passover since it doesn’t keep long enough for AK and me to finish it all in time…

P.S. Don’t forget to comment…

Outside the Salad Bowl: Spinach & Macadamia Nut Crusted Mahi

**This post is part of a month-long series as I participate in the Salad as a Meal Challenge. This isn’t a recipe from Salad as a Meal, but I had a whole bunch of spinach left over from my egg crepe, and I wanted to find an innovative way to eat it. And I did–by crusting…

Salad Essentials: Greens

**This post is part of a month-long series as I participate in the Salad as a Meal Challenge. For me, the greens are one of the most important components of a salad (that is, when you choose to use them!). If I don’t like the greens in the salad, I won’t like the salad as a…
