I love cooking, but …
I’m not someone who follows recipes — even on the best days. Please use these as cooking inspiration, not as fully-formed recipes. I cook a lot of stir fries, soups, noodle dishes and salads. I often use miso, soy sauce, hot peppers, butter and plant milk alternative. My most often-used kitchen gear is made of cast iron. Where there’s a good recipe I’ve used, I’ve tried to link to it. Hopefully, these photos and descriptions give you a jumping-off point in your kitchen!
Fish and peppers
Citrus and peppers go really well together. Mexican cooks like Rick Martinez also have plenty of recipes pairing peppers and citrus.
Make and use pesto
Pesto is easy to make and use in your home kitchen with a food processor.
Baked eggplant
Cut the eggplant into rounds about 1/2 inch side, cover in olive oil and bake at 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes before flipping and baking for another 15-20 minutes. I added salt and harissa seasoning to these Easy to add to tacos, sandwiches, salads and other meals for extra flavor during the week.
