This quick and easy lemon parmesan asparagus pasta is so simple and fresh that you’ll be making it over and over again! It's the perfect amount of delicious lemony goodness (just the way Chris and I like our lemon dishes!) and can be served as a light and healthy main dish or side dish.
Perfectly hard boiled eggs are hard to beat. (Pun intended!) They’re incredibly versatile - great for a small and healthy breakfast or snack, and can be used as a base for various appetizers. Keep reading to find out how to quickly make perfect hard boiled eggs every time!
Did you know that you can cook a potato in the microwave? My boyfriend showed me this and it blew my mind. This "recipe" errs on the side of "life hack" rather than an actual recipe. If you're in the mood for a baked potato, you could spend 15 minutes preheating the oven, and another hour baking it. But if you don't have the time to bake the potato in the oven, you can quickly throw it in the microwave and get the same slow baked results!
In this peanut butter tofu recipe, crispy baked tofu is tossed in a delightfully rich and flavorful peanut sauce to make a delicious protein-packed vegetarian dish.
Orzo is good in soups but is also great for serving instead of rice or as a side dish. This lemon orzo with Parmesan and peas recipe is the perfect combination of lemony Parmesan goodness and can be paired with your favorite meat or veggie to create a meal or served all on its own.
This savory egg sandwich is my adaptation of egg sandwiches my mom made when I was growing up. It's simple, yummy, and quick to make. It's more or less a savory omelette in sandwich form and is one of my go-to breakfasts whenever I am in a time crunch in the morning. You can use any bread/toast you prefer. I typically make this with regular toast or an English muffin.
Rich and smooth just the way cheesecake should be. The raspberry swirls against the white chocolate look gorgeous (and taste even better!) and make this cheesecake a great pick for bringing to family gatherings or special events.
This scrumptious dish with abundant egg noodles and veggies is a great go-to-dish when there’s a family gathering or potluck. If you know me, you know that this was the dish I went for first at any gathering. The best part is this dish can be served hot or cold and it's delicious either way. I typically serve this with soy sauce or vegetarian dipping sauce on the side so that everyone can adjust the seasoning to their preference.
This light traditional Vietnamese banana, coconut, and tapioca pudding (che chuoi) was one of my favorite desserts growing up. It’s lightly sweetened and the cooked bananas add the perfect tang. I remember eating this until I couldn’t fit anymore in me. You can serve che chuoi warm or cold so it’s perfect for warming you up on cold mornings or giving you a refresh on a hot summer day!
Strawberries? Avocados? Yes, please! This unlikely duo makes for a simple breakfast or afternoon treat.
If you like seasoning your Asian dishes with the typical Vietnamese condiment called nuoc mam, but find it too strong for your taste or simply if you're a vegetarian, this dipping sauce is for you.
