A cooking resource for all levels
I find dishes for lunch and dinner are generally interchangeable, depending on the occasion and personal preference–especially when meal prepping for the week!
I am always on the lookout for interesting dishes and flavors to play with, and when I came across a recipe for beans in the style of mapo tofu, I was intrigued. The finished product has a spicy, complex, savory flavor and a satisfying texture boost from the large white beans used in place of silken tofu.
Hailing from Vietnamese cuisine, salad rolls can include a variety of fillings and make for a delicious and healthy appetizer or light meal. This recipe is more a of a guide–the exact amounts aren’t important, and you can try different filling combinations of your own. I’ve included the core ingredients and a suggested set of additional flavors to get you started, along with a recipe for peanut dipping sauce. If I’m being honest, I love peanut sauce so much that the rolls themselves are more of a vehicle…
Sometimes there’s just nothing like chicken soup, especially when it’s chilly outside or you’re coming down with a cold. Warm, mellow broth and classic ingredients combine for a dose of liquid comfort. This recipe’s got everything but the chicken and is a breeze to make!
Avocado toast basically it does what it says on the tin, and memes aside, it’s great. Satisfying and nutritious any time of day, whether as a snack or a meal. You can cook the eggs any way you want to.
There are many, many kinds of curry. This one is very simple and makes a great weeknight dinner. You need a few core ingredients, and the rest can be decided based on what you have in your cupboard. I am especially fond of using root vegetables, peas, leafy greens, and cauliflower.
