I have gone my whole life not even thinking twice about making a tuna casserole, and I'm pretty sure I have never eaten one either, but for some reason last week I had the most intense craving for it. Weird? yes, but I'll blame the isolation. I don't typically like canned tuna, but I found … Continue reading Tuna Noodle Casserole

Tempeh Spring Rolls
I like making things that don't take very long. If it takes longer than 20 minutes start to finish it better be Thanksgiving, or I don't want anything to do with it. I'm a speedy cook in general, which I'd like to give credit to my training, but in reality when I'm hungry I … Continue reading Tempeh Spring Rolls
Cast Iron Fritatta
I'd like to say I make fritattas on the reg because it sounds fancy and is fun to say, but the truth is I usually settle for a scramble because the one extra step is too much too soon in the AM. This recipe is very simple and you can customize it however you like, … Continue reading Cast Iron Fritatta
Ahi-Avo Jicama Salad
I'll go days, weeks sometimes without writing, and jusssst when I find myself needing to accomplish something time sensitive, I wind up redirecting my time and efforts towards something completely non-urgent and down right random. Anyone else have those moments? Go to the gym? No, I think I'll stay home and re-organize my file cabinets, … Continue reading Ahi-Avo Jicama Salad

This version I used chicken and veggies, but that can change depending on what I'm craving, or more likely whatever is on its' last few days in the fridge. As long … Continue reading Just Curry
Thai Lettuce Wraps (Larb)
You know when you go out to eat and think afterwards, I could have made that at home, and it leaves you feeling pretty meh? I never feel that way when I go out to eat Thai, and that's why it's my favorite cuisine. This is exclusive to Asian cuisines though, don't take me out to … Continue reading Thai Lettuce Wraps (Larb)
Coconut Matcha Latte
The first time I tried Matcha I was working at a coffee shop in college, and that's also, surprisingly, the first time I realized how much sugar is in all coffee drinks except actual coffee. Somehow this didn't phase me from the occasional (daily) Almond Rocha Mocha (with whip!) rewarded to myself for completing menial tasks, like reading … Continue reading Coconut Matcha Latte
Yogurt Superbowl
Textures are kind of a big deal, and this snack has so much yes going on in that category I could eat it everyday, and often do. Although little, there is a lot going on here so I wouldn't actually just eat is as a snack, but rather lunch or post workout. This bowl is … Continue reading Yogurt Superbowl
Coconut Chicken
If it isn't already apparent, there will be a huge coconut theme in my food posts. If you don't already know the benefits of coconut/coconut oil etc. you must be living under a rock, in which case you wouldn't be reading this anyway. This chicken is really easy to make and only requires a few … Continue reading Coconut Chicken
