I love it when a few ingredients can come together to make something super delicious. I love it even more when it’s budget friendly – meaning, you could make this for recipe even if you need to pinch pennies. Plus, it’s something that everyone can eat since it’s vegan and vegetarian friendly! This slaw can…

Recipe: Scallion Pancakes
It always astounds me how low cost scallion pancakes are when they have so much flavor and are so delicious. They do take a bit of time or some planning if you want to make them, but it’s worth every minute! You can always double the recipe and wrap the extras to keep in the…
Recipe: Olive and Spinach Pasta
Delicious carbs and pastaaaaaa. What I love most about pasta is that no matter what your diet is, you can usually find substitutes for the pasta or noodles to whatever fits your eating habits. For this dish, since it’s meatless and dairy-free, I like to use a whole wheat spaghetti noodle since it’s more filling…
Recipe: Bean Sprout Salad
Hands down, this salad is one of my favorite foods that my mom made. When I was younger, I used to sneak to the fridge and eat more of this after dinner because it was that good and I was that addicted to the deliciousness of it. It’s really simple ingredients and doesn’t take much…
Recipe: Vegan Lemony Avocado Pesto
I don’t know what it is about rainy weather, but it always has me craving a pile pasta with bright and fresh veggies and flavors. So with an overripe avocado found in the back of my fridge, I decided to make my lemony avocado pesto. It’s quick and easy to put together and that’s my…
Recipe: Cherry Balsamic Dressing & Cherry Salsa
Cherry season is coming to an end soon, which is why I regret not getting these recipes together sooner. Truth be told, when I get cherries, I’m too busy stuffing my face with them and eating them as quickly as I can because fresh cherry season seems to go away so quickly. The two recipes…
Recipe: Chinese Smashed Cucumber Salad
I posted a picture on Facebook of my favorite, most addictive snack…My version of a Chinese smashed cucumber salad. It’s perfect for summertime snacking! Since then, people have been asking me what it is and how to make it. Since there’s a process on how to prepare the cucumbers, I thought I would do a…
Recipe: Cheese and Asparagus or Zucchini Tart
I returned from visiting with a friend in England about two weeks ago, where I had a lot of delicious foods. I didn’t take pictures of everything consumed because it’s not really something that they do there. I didn’t want to be the weirdo photographing everything before anyone can eat. I was also distracted by conversation…
Recipe: Bacon Fried Rice
Fried rice is one of those things that I don’t really have a recipe for. I never plan to make fried rice…and whenever I do make it, the creation tends to be based on whatever ingredients I have around. It’s also my default “end of the pay period” type of meal because you can make…
Recipe: Cold Quinoa Veggie Salad
Quinoa is one of my new favorite things to make. It’s like couscous, but nuttier. It soaks up the flavor of what ever you’re cooking it with. It’s very filling. It’s delicious hot or cold. And it’s quick and easy to make! I’ve made this salad many times before. When I’ve brought it to potlucks, there…
