This orzo cucumber tomato salad is the perfect spring and summer salad. It’s made with sweet cherry tomatoes, crisp cucumbers, and tender orzo dressed with a light and tangy homemade lemon honey vinaigrette.
This Mediterranean inspired chicken is super easy and tasty. It’s one of those recipes where I tossed some spices together one night and have been tweaking the recipe ever since. My favorite part about this chicken is that it’s so versatile - use it in a salad, in a wrap, or in a bowl! I like turning it into a grain bowl with curried couscous, tomatoes, lettuce, tahini dressing, and a spritz of fresh lemon juice.
The perfect breakfast for any occasion? Eggs Benedict made my way! Cheesy hash browns topped with smoked bacon, sunny side up eggs, hollandaise sauce, and sriracha! It's the perfect blend of cheesy, rich, lemony, buttery, and creamy, with a little added kick!
Who knew adding a dollop of peanut butter to your broth could be so addictive? This spicy peanut dumpling ramen is savory, nutty, and just so, so good. You have to try it!
Kimchi egg drop miso soup is a flavorful and comforting soup that combines the umami-rich flavor of miso with the tanginess of kimchi and the silky texture of beaten eggs. The eggs are added toward the end to create thin ribbons of egg throughout the soup. The result is a simple yet satisfying meal that’s both hearty and light.
If you’re looking for a delicious twist on avocado toast, you have to try kimchi avocado toast. The tanginess of kimchi perfectly complements the creaminess of avocado for a super tasty treat.
Spicy miso ramen anyone? This spicy miso ramen features a silky-smooth broth that’s umami-rich with a mild kick from chili bean paste for some extra oomph.
You NEED to make these chili oil fried eggs to start off your day!
These kimchi quesadillas are the perfect twist on your typical quesadilla with soft, gooey cheese complementing tangy kimchi.
One of my favorite dishes growing up was this Vietnamese chicken salad (gổi gà). My mom would serve this either alone or with rice porridge drizzled with ginger fish sauce (mắm gừng). It’s light, tangy, slightly sweet, and full of yummy herbs like Vietnamese coriander and fried shallots. For an added crunch, you can add some shredded cabbage, but it’s totally optional!
This dill pickle potato salad is a twist on your standard potato salad. It's loaded with potatoes, fresh dill, and dill pickles. It's the perfect make-ahead side dish for the summer!
This is one of my favorite salads, inspired by my fiancé’s mom. I’m a huge fan of bulgur wheat - I love that it’s so versatile, you can add almost anything to it and you won’t go wrong. The flavor bomb of sweet, tangy, and citrusy in this salad is perfect for spring or summer.
