Fresh Tomato, Basil and Lemon Zucchini Pasta
September 5, 2011
Here's another one of the great meals that my little mommy made for me when I was home last month. I love the fact that it uses fresh zucchini (courgettes) as the pasta. I've used zucchini as pasta before (normally raw with a pesto or vegan alfredo cream sauce), but because...

If you've been following my last few posts, you'll know that I'm currently on vacation in Ottawa Canada. Right now, I'm staying with my parents and it's actually more of a "semi-vacation" at the moment since I'm working half-days and running around doing a bunch of different errands the rest...

I just couldn't resist bringing home these gorgeous grape tomatoes and figured that the best way to enjoy them would be as a light and fresh salad. A quick Google search brought me to a recipe for this transcendent summer tomato salad. Perfect! Fresh basil and a high-quality olive oil are...

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...

Vegan MoFo #14 – Keeping with my tropical theme this week, here’s a recipe for mango gazpacho, or should I say MMMango gazpacho! It's slightly adapted from AllRecipes.com. I leave-out the jalapeno pepper and reduce the onion and garlic because I find them to be to strong in the original recipe (and...

October 15, 2010
My amazing mom has been making this soup for years and it's one of my all-time favorites. I love the chunkiness of the vegetables and it's really more of a stew than a soup. I've seen people who "hate vegetables" (!?!), ask for seconds of this soup. Seriously, it's that...

October 13, 2010
I love the smell of fresh basil, and the best thing to make when you have a lot of fresh basil is... fresh pesto! It's great on pasta and flat bread pizza, as well as stirred into lightly stir-fried veggies. It's also awesome in minestrone soup, which I'll share in...
