Mushroom and Cashew Alfredo Pasta (DF and GF)

thedishonhealthyLeave a comment

Mushroom and light cream truffle pasta has ma’ heart. This one is completely dairy-free and get’s that cheesy light truffle cream sauce taste from none other than… C-A-S-H-E-W-S. Yep, you read that right; (insert bold letters and conspicuous spacing :P). The same good ol’ raw cashews I make vegan cheesecake from. The same handful of raw cashews that make my smoothies denser and creamier. The same cashews that I use for my cashew cream cheese spread. Starting to make sense? Cashews are the best source of cheesy goodness, aside from cheese itself. You will love!

An Easy and Delicious Shakshouka

Is there anything better than a 15-minute prep time brunch or dinner that’s as cozy & hearty as Shakshouka? Picture; perfectly cooked eggs in a thick tomato ragú that still boast a runny yolk. Paired with perfectly crusty sourdough bread or fresh rye slices for delirious dipping. Try this with gluten free garlic bread or top the shakshouka with crumbled feta and allow it to melt!

Brussels Sprouts with homemade Lemony Tahini

I believe brussels sprouts deserve more love. They are sort of every kid’s holiday food nightmare. I’d look at them (sulk) and then look away, literally. There’s so many ways to eat them, dress them, and enhance this unassuming vegetable that has endured such a bad rep for so long. They’re kind of like that…… Continue reading Brussels Sprouts with homemade Lemony Tahini

Southwest Sweet Potato Salsa Salad

You know how there’s certain foods you just kinda (totally) ignore? Like, for no particular reason. No grudges; just no interest, either. Well, that was exactly the case with me and sweet potatoes/yams. I knew all too well about this potato variety, but aside from my aunt Rosy’s epic Thanksgiving and Christmas sweet potato, cinnamon…… Continue reading Southwest Sweet Potato Salsa Salad

Summery Avocado Toast

I guess I could’ve simply called this blog something to do with avocado & that would’ve been a fair representation of my love/love relationship with this creamy green fruit and its abundant inclusion in my diet. It’s like my “daily bread”. And half the time I eat it over bread, so yep- that sounds a bit…… Continue reading Summery Avocado Toast

Buckwheat Soba Spaghetti!

thedishonhealthyLeave a comment

Traditional spaghetti was a primary staple in my university diet. At least a once-a-week meal that we would eat, reheat and eat over the course of two days. Not very exciting to say the least; but hearty and affordable. During my 4th and final year of undergrad school, I moved into a brand new residence that…… Continue reading Buckwheat Soba Spaghetti!

Buckwheat Tabbouleh

thedishonhealthy3 Comments

I was casually asked at a dinner party just last Friday what my blog is all about. It’s questions like those that make you step back and try to fill in the gaps with inside knowledge but outside perspective. I concluded that it’s the story of a life, told through food. I share recipes and…… Continue reading Buckwheat Tabbouleh
