Buffalo Cauliflower & Chickpea Salad
Whether you are trying to eat less meat, or just are looking for (mostly) healthy and easy lunch ideas, this recipe is for you. I imagine that one of the hardest things about not eating meat would be missing out on chicken wings. This recipe brings the spirit of buffalo wings into a re-imagined (and delicious!) vegetarian salad.

Pulled Pork Mee Goreng
Mee Goreng holds a special place in my heart. It (and Nasi Goreng) reminds me of my time volunteering at the Turtle Conservation Center on Nusa Penida off the coast of Bali. Though most of our meals were Nasi Goreng, it was always a treat to have the Mee Goreng, with noodles instead of rice!

Instant Pot Sticky Korean Chicken
Hello old friends! Wow, what a year it’s been. Sorry for being MIA for so long! Ben and I moved to the Western Slope of Colorado and began new careers. We also have been spending LOTS of time rock climbing. BUT – No excuses. All that matters is that we are here now and I have a bunch of tasty recipes to share with you all over the next few months, so be sure to follow along!
Italian Zucchini Roll-Ups
I finally finished eating all of the vegetables from my harvest (which included about 15 heads of kale!). I am definitely going to miss the days of walking around back to cut my lettuce for lunch. My last hope for harvest are my tomatillo plants that I brought inside. They have a TON of little tomatillos on them, but I am not sure if they are going to grow inside… Fingers crossed!
Mahi Mahi with Grilled Kale & Scallion Pesto
It is harvest season! That time of the year when you don’t know what to do with your copious amounts of (insert vegetable here). For me, it is lettuce, kale and zucchini. I try to eat salads daily, but it seems like it has all grown back by the time I finish my stash in the fridge. After letting some of my kale sit in the fridge for a little too long, I knew I needed to use it up ASAP. I also had half of a bunch of green onions that were looking pretty sad. Voila! Sad looking vegetables turned into a match made in heaven.
Vegetarian Sweet Potato & Quinoa Enchiladas
In the spirit of Meatless Monday…This recipe is a vegetarian dish for meat eaters. You will not even miss the meat! The quinoa and cheese provides the protein that you may be wanting from the meat. You can also add black beans, but I chose to leave them out for Ben. And I have to admit, as much as I am an advocate for making everything from scratch, I cannot stop buying the Roberto’s Vegetarian Burrito Sauce used in this recipe. It is just TOO good, you need to try it.
Chicken Fettucini w/ Tarragon Cream Sauce
…Because everybody needs a rich, fatty, comforting meal every now and then. This dish is truly decadent. The tarragon cuts through the creamy sauce with its intense anise-like herbal flavor. The fettuccini noodles are the perfect noodle for a dish like this, because they have a ton of surface area to soak up the sauce. Leave out the chicken to make this a (very rich) vegetarian option.
