Quick & Easy Red Curry Quinoa
March 24, 2013
I love Thai food, and especially red curries. I often make regular red curries at home, but yesterday, I made a quick and healthy red curry dish using quinoa.
This is a pretty basic recipe. The next time I make it, I will try to make it into a one-pot-meal, but...

Happy spring, everyone! Can you believe that winter is already over? I mean, it may not seem like it out there, but before we know it, it will be July. Time flies!
What better way to celebrate the end of winter than with a bright and fresh salad? To be perfectly...

I'm still working my way through all my travel photos, so my posts over the next few weeks will primarily focus on current happenings (what I'm cooking at home and restaurants that I'm discovering here in Toronto). But don't worry, all the information and reviews of the things that I...

October 21, 2011
Last night, my man and I decided to check out the Night Noodle Markets, which are just one of the events taking place as part of the Sydney International Food Festival. While many of the events aren't very vegan-friendly (don't worry, they've heard plenty from me!), I always manage to...

My dad is in the Canadian Armed Forces, so when I was growing up, we moved... a lot! We lived throughout Canada and the United States (where I attended high school). All in all, I attended 9 schools and got to experience and see first-hand a good portion of those...

September 19, 2011
This recipe comes from the January 2011 issue of House&Home magazine. It's one of the recipes that my mom and I made together when I was home visiting last month. It's a great little meal and we really liked the contrast of hot and cold in our little soba noodle...

August 6, 2011
My mom saw this recipe in Canadian House & Home magazine a few months ago and we made it together for dinner last night. The recipe comes from chef Jennifer Houston at Fresh restaurant in Toronto. I've never had the pleasure of eating at Fresh - but after trying this...

July 19, 2011
This was inspired by a recipe for "Chicken with Thai Peanut Sauce" that I saw in the Ottawa Citizen newspaper a few years ago. Everything about the recipe was vegan except the chicken so it was very easy to veganize it by substituting tofu instead. While the sauce and tofu...

May 30, 2011
Since moving to Sydney, I've eaten at quite a few of the sushi restaurants here. Those that have great fish for my non-vegan friends often have a really poor vegan menu. Most of these places don't even have avocado maki (rolls) on the menu, and I sometimes have to beg...

April 1, 2011
I found this recipe for General Tao's Tofu on VegWeb.com a couple years ago and have made it many times since with great success. It's a great version of the General Tao's chicken dish that is offered at many Chinese restaurants. The tofu has a nice crispy yet chewy texture....

December 8, 2010
Something happened when I turned 30. My taste buds seemed to transform overnight. I don't seem to crave as much of the "bad" stuff anymore. For example, when I used to go to a Vietnamese restaurant, I would pick deep-fried spring rolls over the fresh variety 8 times out of...

November 13, 2010
Continuing with my tropical theme this week, here's a yummy tropical tapioca pudding recipe. I especially like serving this after Indian or Thai food. The cool, creamy texture is refreshing after a spicy meal, and the tropical fruits compliments those themes as well.
I love tapioca pudding because it's so...

Vegan MoFo #12 - Since I was on vacation in Fiji last week, I missed the first week of Vegan MoFo. So this is my contribution for day 12, even though it's my first food post of the month. I've been craving pineapple, mango, and coconut since leaving that tropical paradise,...

October 4, 2010
Friday night, I was looking for something to munch on while watching a movie at home. I didn't feel like a salad or something completely healthy. I had some leftover peanut dressing from the Peanut Soba Noodles I had made earlier in the week, so I decided to lightly fry...

September 29, 2010
Yay! I submitted my Salt & Pepper Tofu recipe to VegWeb.com back in April and just realized that they finally posted it earlier this month. I guess there's a bit of a back-log over there, which is understandable considering the massive amount of recipes and info that they publish. I'm...
