Chicken Tikka Masala
I adapted our favorite chicken tikka masala recipe from The Woks of Life to be dairy-free. This is a new favorite of ours! Enjoy.
Sangria
This is simply the best sangria.
Chili
My favorite thing about winter? It’s chili season. Can you make chili during the other seasons? Sure, and I do, but when winter rolls around chili’s always the first thing that comes to mind.
Brussels Sprouts
Brussels sprouts were one of those "adult" foods I just never grew into. After what seemed like a requisite number of years following our graduation from college, friends and colleagues began to talk about brussels sprouts being a staple in their weekday diet and it absoultely baffled me. Brussels sprouts? Yep.
Bolognese
Delicious pasta sauce!
German Potato Salad
Quick, easy, and great with just about everything, from hamburgers to fried pork cutlets. Need I say more? Okay, fine... it's also full of bacon.
Thai Red Curry
This is a base recipe for a Thai red curry I make almost weekly with whatever's in season. I like to make it with vegetables but you could easily add chicken for more protein. What's presented here is a wintry take on the curry.
Mapo Tofu
Joey and I came up with this twist on Mapo Tofu over New Year's and for the months following his visits this was always on my grocery list. It's extremely adaptable — easily made plant-based, and pretty much any in-season veggies bring new dimension to the dish.
Cranberry Sauce
My grandfather ate cranberries every year of his life, even through the Great Depression. The first time I made these, I caught him looking at his Thanksgiving plate contemplatively. The way he was looking at that plate was not a way folks tend to examine food. So, nervous, I walked over to see what was up.
