Kung Pao Brussels Sprouts
From Food, Food, Food cookbook by the good folks at The Ranch Malibu First off, I know, another healthy dish? Yes. But you guys, this was so delicious and filling with some sprouted quinoa. Haha. Listen to me! I’m talking healthy eating. Second, did you know Brussels sprouts had a plural “Brussels” and that it’s…

Tamales (A Very Healthy and delicious Version)
I did a thing last week. I stopped everything and spent a week at The Ranch in Malibu. We hiked over 55 miles, climbed a total of 8k feet, ate vegan, focused on health both for our bodies and souls and drank a ton of water, water, water. We were all floored by how delicious…

Ahi Tuna Benedict
Can you tell that I’m missing my Hawaii vacation? The food was so good. I had this ahi Benedict and I am determined to remake it. 1/2 cup precooked rice (sushi rice would be best) Furikake Oil 2 eggs 1/2 avocado, sliced 2 shiso leaves 1/4 lb sushi grade ahi tuna, sliced into 1/2” thick…

Blistered Shishito Peppers
I love the roulette experience of eating these. You never know when you might get a spicy one. These are such an easy appetizer that can be done in less than 10 mins. Heat a cast iron skillet on med/high until water drops sizzle and evaporated quickly. Toss peppers with oil to just coat. In…

Spicy Ahi Poke
I posted a poke recipe before and it’s great. This time, I tried making a version we recently had in Oahu called the CA roll poke. It’s the perfect combination of fresh and decadent. Make this and eat it over rice or salad. 1/2 lb sushi grade ahi tuna, diced into 1/2” chunks 1/4 cup…

Jalapeño Poppers, Baked
Made these for the 4th of July and am looking for a BBQ event to bring them to so I can side swipe a few between drinks. It’s the perfect “over served” food. Bacon-y, kinda spicy, cheesey. Sooo good. In fact, I bet we could doctor them up to look Halloween-y. Ok. Time for some…

Shanghai Lumpia
I went to make Lola Momma’s lumpia recipe and did a quick search to find the ingredients. What? Nothing found. How have I never put the recipe in here? Welp, I winged it because she was asleep since she’s in the PI and we’re in the US and it was a midday project. Everyone says…

Green Goddess Salmon with Crispy Potatoes
I’m holding on to the last glimmers of summer with this fresh dinner option. When a meal is loved by all the family members we say, “definitely put this on the menu” for our make-believe family restaurant that we’ll never open. This meal got that stamp of approval. Green Goddess Salmon with Crispy Potatoes 2…

Peach Pecan Loaf
Today is all the breads with fruits day. Bread #2 is this pecan peach loaf. It freezes really well. You’ll just want to save the frosting until after it thaws. This bread is great for breakfast, brunch, or even a snack. Adults and kids loved it. Peach Pecan Loaf Adapted slightly from Life Love Liz…

Lentils = Protein
It’s hard to get my mostly-fresh-fruit-and-veggie-eating littles to consume protein too. They love eggs and red meat and salmon – sometimes chicken, if it’s fried. But that will cover like 6 of the 4000 meals that need to be made … in a day. (Doesn’t it feel like the meal prep and dishes are just…
