Thai Green Curry Noodles

*REPOST FROM THE OLD BLOG* This is an oldie but a GOODIE. It hits every time and is so cozy. And despite my denial that we aren’t still in summer here in LA, I will concede that the best part of the fall is cozy soups and noodles. This dish was a happy surprise that…

Goat Cheese Peppadews

This super simple recipe was another one of my grandmother’s favorite appetizers to whip out during the holiday season. With only three ingredients (or two if you so desire), they are rich, packed with flavor, and completely addicting. Being the great cook that she was, she would buy plain goat cheese and whip in her…

Green Chicken Pozole

Pozole has always been a special treat for me. For a long time growing up, my maternal grandparents lived in Santa Fe, New Mexico. A magical place with green chili everything, enchiladas to die for, fascinating art, loads of turquoise jewelry, and cozy stucco homes. We would visit in the summer for long days at…

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…

Pepperoncini Zucchini Orzo

My love for pepperoncini has no bounds. I love it on pizza. I love it on salad. I love it in sandwiches. And now I love it in pasta! As someone who does not love pasta (hot or cold), but has learned to appreciate a risotto or pilaf since going gluten free, this recipe is…

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…
