Vegan Corn Wild Rice Chowder

I kid, I kid! The thought of leaving you lovelies makes my stomach queasy. But in all seriousness, I do get asked that question quite often. The truth is that I grew up eating meat and continued to do so until I was a sophomore in college. I always enjoyed meat and I especially loved seafood. My parents cooked us great meals growing up, but I wasn’t raised on lentils and green smoothies by any means....

Vegetarian Pho Noodle Soup

The vegetarian diet has never been a mainstream thing in China, and it just started to gain popularity over the past few years. Vegetarian food is translated as Su Shi (素食) in Chinese, which literally means simple and plain food. Its definition is quite debatable. For Buddhist vegetarian cuisine, even spicy and pungent ingredients such as onion and garlic are not allowed. On the other hand, many Chinese vegetarian restaurants do serve eggs....

Whole Wheat Orange Pancakes With Maple Tahini Syrup

The sheer joy of a fluffy, warm pancake gracing your face….I mean is there ANYTHING ELSE like it? I think not. I’m freaking out. I love my Whole Wheat Pancakes, Lemon Blueberry Pancakes, and Fluffy Vegan Pancakes, but I have to admit—melted butter really kicks up the flavor a notch. (You could totally use dairy-free buttery spread as well!) What I love most about these is that they’re insanely flavorful thanks to the 100% OJ and more buttery/savory than sweet....

Asian Tuna Burgers

Because they’re next level addicting. The epically rad combination of the Asian-inspired burgs (soy sauce + sesame oil + ginger + sriracha) plus the creamy-dreamy-sweet-salty-spicy cashew cream makes me wish I had nine tongues. I literally ate a whole burger (on a Trader Joe’s whole wheat bun thankyouverymuch) and then proceeded to drench another bun half in the cashew cream. And then I put some cashew cream in a little bowl and stirred in some water and VOILA!...

Best Vegan Malai Kofta Curry Air Fryer

It is a popular vegetarian dish made with deep-fried koftas (dumplings) that are made from mashed potatoes and paneer (Indian cottage cheese), served in a rich and creamy sauce. The dish is widely popular and very common in indian restaurants. However, with the paneer and heavy cream, the dish is a far cry from being a vegan dish. I agree to be sent email. So, I set out to find a way to enjoy this dish in a vegan way without compromising my dietary choices....

Different from chicken or pork, beef can get really tough and chewy if you accidentally overcook it. However, once you know a few tricks, you will able to make restaurant-style black pepper steak in your own kitchen in no time....
