Lemony Rice with Swiss Chard Recipe- Vegan, Easy, and Delicious
I’m sorry I haven’t posted in the last week- I’ve been dealing with sick kids- all four of my kids have taken turns having the flu, and we’re already on week 2 of dealing with sick family members. Fortunately, thus far my husband and I have been spared. With all that, to be honest, I […]
Homemade Thai Green Curry Paste Recipe- Paleo and Vegan
I went out for dinner recently and ended up ordering two different Thai style dishes- one a noodle dish, and one corn soup, and they both were utterly amazing, making me want to recreate them both at home. When attempting to do so, I realized that the base ingredient for both of them was Thai […]
Homemade Red Zhug or Sahawiq or Daqqus Recipe- Yemenite Hot Pepper Condiment
Recently, I was at the market, stocking up on cheap produce, and my favorite shop keeper basically shoved a few large hot peppers into my shop. I protested, saying “What am I going to do with all these hot peppers? I have some at home already” and he said “You’ll figure out that to do […]
Creamy Garlic Dressing Recipe- Vegan, Paleo, Refined Sugar Free

Sumac Onion Salad Recipe and a Delicious Shawarma Dinner From Scratch
Sumac was one of the first things I learned how to forage (as a kid at Six Flags, we used to pick the sumac berries while waiting on line for the rides), and I love it as a spice. Sumac and onion chicken is really amazing, as well as zaatar spice mix containing sumac. If […]
Extreme Cooking From Scratch Marathon
Today was cold and rainy, and when the weather is like that, I am usually tempted to cuddle up under a blanket with a good book or a movie. But sometimes, when the weather gets like this, I am tempted to cook and cook and cook and not stop, and that’s what happened today. Today […]
Healthy Sweet Potato or Carrot Muffins or Cake Recipe, Gluten Free and Vegan
I’ve been on the lookout for healthy baked goods lately, and since I recently scored a bunch of super cheap sweet potatoes and just stocked up on jaggery, I thought to make some gluten free sweet potato muffins sweetened with jaggery.
