I have had quite a difficult time finding good bulk lentils. Especially in rural Wisconsin. So, I’ve been slowly going through them until there is almost nothing left! And I have finally reached the end of my pantry and must do something with the black […]
This is another one of those meals that isn’t as far fetched as it seems! Ethiopian red lentils and sautéed spinach are often eaten with injera, a flatbread that is made out of teff. To someone who’s never seen it before, injera vaguely resembles a […]
Ethiopian salmon is far from a traditional meal. Salmon are more commonly found in the North Atlantic and Pacific Ocean. And certainly aren’t as widely associated with a landlocked country in the horn of Africa! But I grew up in Oregon and first found a […]
I very much enjoy a traditional Ethiopian plate. It’s great to get everyone together over a communal group of dishes and injera. Injera is an Ethiopian flatbread made out of teff. You tend to eat it with your hands and rip off pieces of injera […]
This sautéed spinach recipe is a take on Ethiopian Gomen Wat. Ordinarily, Gomen Wat consists of stewed collard greens. But I’m not particularly fond of collard greens! They’re bitter, acidic, and have a similar texture to kale. Some people are fond of this. And, to […]
With almost 10 pounds of roasted calabaza, it’s no wonder that I’ve begun to turn to burritos! I tend to make everything into a burrito at some point. Burritos and pizza I might consider absolutely perfect foods… They work with almost any flavor profile and […]
I am a big fan of quickly frying up a runny egg for burritos. I don’t always eat them in the morning, but there’s something about a breakfast burrito all day that just hits the spot! This week I made a Japanese-inspired quinoa with tamari […]
This is one of those burrito creations that’s more of an amalgam of what I have on hand than an actual plan a quinoa burrito. I made Tamari & Rice Vinegar Quinoa earlier this week. I haven’t had this kind of dish in a while. […]
I have been craving a more Japanese-style quinoa and tofu dish for ages. I used to make ginger quinoa with tamari and white rice vinegar all of time. It’s quick and easy to make and kind of fits in with this bowl fad that I’ve […]
Curry and eggs have a longstanding tradition of going hand-in-hand. It may sound counter-intuitive to scramble eggs alongside a vegan curry. Especially since a lot of egg substitutes are made from tofu! However, a lot of curries call for an egg in them as the […]
