Yoshii’s Sweet & Sour Chicken

*REPOST FROM THE OLD BLOG* But in honor of my husband’s birthday today, here is one of his all-time favorite family recipes from his mom! After going completely gluten free, I realized that a lot of Asian take-out food was no longer an option for me. Besides the soy sauce issue, MSG (aka gluten) is…

Zucchini Feta Toastie

Have you noticed I’ve been used Greek Feta in Brine a lot lately? Well if you haven’t, you have not paid very close attention! My favorite part about Greek Feta in Brine is that the brine keeps the cheese from souring, drying, and can be kept in the fridge for weeks. It’s also so versatile!…

Greek Eggplant Potato Casserole

We can all thank my mom for sourcing the inspiration for this dish! Clipped from a local paper, I took a traditional Greek casserole recipe and upped the ante with of course, my favorite, pesto. Besides chopping all the ingredients, it’s super simple to put together. So prep the vegetables ahead of time and when…

Chicken Stuffed Poblano Peppers

If you know me at all, you know I love poblano peppers. I chalk it up to the years and years we spent visiting my grandparents in Santa Fe. Spicy but not too spicy, full of flavor, and easily added to any Tex Mex style dish, the ingredient is a must have in my household…

Summer Peach Panzella Salad

Nothing screams summer to me than stone fruit and tomato… in anything! Mostly salads… but still, anything. They are fresh, juicy, and so flavorful this time of year. As I hold on to the last days of summer for dear life (is it just me or did summer shrink in length this year?!) and become…

Everyday Crispy Tofu

Let me tell you, the best (and only) way to eat tofu is CRISPY CRISPY CRISPY. After hours spent waiting on tofu to crisp in the oven, I finally got smart. First, I realized you must drain the moisture from the tofu. Second, I learned to withhold salt until after it’s done baking because salt…

Salmon Cakes

I was laughing as I wrote an email to my grandfather the other day that I decidedly do not like cooked salmon. I mean, it was just a few years ago that I accepted raw salmon as a viable (and delicious) meal (in moderation of course). So here I am posting a Salmon Cakes recipe.…
