Nothing really to say here, it’s just something I wanted to not have to look up next time. And it’s really easy to make at home. It’s great on pita chips or gyros. Also, don’t sweat how finely you need to chop things up. It’s all going to go in a blender. Ingredients 1 cup… Continue reading Tzatziki Sauce

Pasta E Ceci (Pasta with Chickpeas)
Hey look at that! I’m trying that thing where you have a picture of the thing. This is a combination of a couple of recipes I found online. It’s a simply and hearty one pot meal that comes together in under an hour from cheap ingredients, and it tastes great too, so what’s not to… Continue reading Pasta E Ceci (Pasta with Chickpeas)
Chickpea Salad
Like tuna salad or chicken salad, but, you know, with chickpeas. I make sandwiches out of it. I made this with Cajun seasoning because that sounded good to me, but you can use whatever. If you’re in the mood for something more asian, you could use togarashi. Or you could use rosemary and thyme and… Continue reading Chickpea Salad
Creamy Mushroom Pasta with Toasted Pecans
There’s more stuff going in here, it’s a lot. But I was shocked by how well the flavors came together considering it was something I cobbled together out of four different recipes on the internet. Also, I feel like the recipe is deceptively simple. You spend most of the time cooking the mushrooms down. You… Continue reading Creamy Mushroom Pasta with Toasted Pecans
Strawbasil Jam
I am honestly not sure where I got this from, my best guess is that at some point I had a strawberry basil cocktail of some kind. But it’s strawberry and basil jam. Fantastic on pretty much anything. I’ve gotten multiple requests for the recipe so I figured I’d just throw it here. I do… Continue reading Strawbasil Jam
Masala Pasta
Yeah, I’ve been on a pasta kick lately, trying out different stuff. I found this online and tinkered with it and it is shockingly good. A one pot Indian flavored pasta in a tomato cream sauce. It shouldn’t work this well but it does. The kasuri methi is clutch here, it gives it a great… Continue reading Masala Pasta
Mexican pasta?
I guess that’s as good a name for this as anything? I found it online and it’s shockingly good. A great one pot meal with a lot of options so you can customize it the way you want. You can add ground beef, pulled chicken, fake meat, or none of them and just rely on… Continue reading Mexican pasta?
Mushroom burgers
So these are fucking great. This is also very much a work in progress. I’m still working on the technique, but the flavor is fantastic if, you know, you like mushrooms. Couple notes: Ingredients 2 large onions, diced 1 teaspoon baking soda 2 pounds mushrooms, diced 1 cup parmesan cheese, shredded 1 cup breadcrumbs (more… Continue reading Mushroom burgers
Vietnamese Peanut Sauce
This is one of those things where either you know exactly what it is or you have no idea. It’s often served as a dipping sauce for Vietnamese spring rolls, the ones that come come cold and are wrapped in really thin rice paper. I’ve always loved this sauce, turns out it’s super easy to… Continue reading Vietnamese Peanut Sauce
Pad Woon Sen
This is my absolutely favorite thing to get from a Thai place. I like it better than pad thai, basil rice, or anything else. I think it’s the noddles, I can’t get enough of them. On the subject of the noddles: you may have to go to an Asian grocery store to get them. You… Continue reading Pad Woon Sen
