Easy Green Curry!

thedishonhealthyLeave a comment

Green Curry is like the fun, crazy uncle figure of curries. We all have one, if you know what I mean… He’s sassy, unapologetic, has no filter, is slightly spicy and either makes us LOL or run. Or both. Green curry is exactly like that. It has personality. It has flavor. It has depth. It is bold and has a fun kick to it that makes it memorable. And, the recipe is here because you guys asked for it. It’s delicious, ready in a whim, tastes better the next day, and involves no dairy or gluten. I hope you enjoy it as much as we do!

Fool-Proof Chana Masala Curry

After a long (and cold) day, I love nothing more than a cozy bowl of soup or a warming curry over fluffy rice. I typically go for brown, black or basmati rice or protein-packed quinoa for a double punch. When it comes to legume lingo- chickpeas are so rich, filling and packed with protein. I…… Continue reading Fool-Proof Chana Masala Curry

Cashew Rosé Ratatouille Pasta

This colorful and heathy spin on a classic Ratatouille casserole is both; hearty and deliciously light. I added garden zucchini, bell peppers in every color, cherry tomatoes, mushrooms, eggplants and onions. The vegetables are slow roasted and then stewed in a creamy, dreamy rosé sauce made from none other than cashews that have been pre-soaked. I love the rich dairy-like feel, without any of the heavy cream that typically goes into this sauce.

Cue in warmer (Spring-is) mostly Summer weather and I’m all about these cold and creamy pasta salads that have a long fridge life, are ready in a whim, and save your life for quick, weeknight dinners. Or even better; make you look like a pantry superstar at the next family dinner or potluck with friends. Everyone will love it and ask you for the recipe. They make the best side dish or are easily customizable into a main dish by simply adding your favorite protein.

Tabbouleh Panzanella Salad

If you are a fan of classic Mediterranean Tabbouleh, you’re doing to L-O-V-E this Panzanella version! Have you even heard about a Panzanella salad? It originated in Tuscany, Italy (of all pretty places) and it consists of bread, tomatoes, cucumber and other seasonal vegetables. I am convinced the salad originated as a way to effectively use leftover, stale bread instead of throwing it away.  You use good quality extra virgin olive oil and vinegar (or lemon) and I personally like it when the bread is soaked in the vinaigrette; much like croutons would in traditional salad.
