I have a list of must-visit vegetarian restaurants, spots all over the country. I’ve compiled this list based on recommendations from fellow food writers, friends, sometimes complete strangers who I encounter on this crazy journey of mine. When talking Chicago restaurants, Karyn’s on Green comes up often. I was excited to have an opportunity to…
Bacon Tofu Breakfast Scramble
It’s not every day you see Bacon and Tofu together in a recipe. But it happens in my kitchen. Well, it does now that I have Phoney Baloney’s coconut bacon on hand. I wish I had some eloquent description of it to share with you. Instead, I’ll just say it’s very bacon-y, but without the…
Johnna’s Japchae, a new twist on a Korean favorite
I’ve been making this unique variation on a traditional Korean dish at least once a week for the past six months . I’ve taught it in several culinary classes and even created a single-serving version for my recent 21-day healthy eating program. Of all of my recipes, this is the one folks rave about the…
Cream of Asparagus Soup, Springtime Comfort Food
Earlier this week I attended a cooking class at one of my very favorite culinary stores, A Thyme for Everything. The class was taught by Chef Jasper Mirabile and featured a Springtime in Italy theme. During class, we learned how to make ricotta cheese, a beautiful ricotta citrus tart, chicken Vesuvio and a pasta primavera….
Hearty Tomato Basil Soup
This seems an unlikely time of year for comfort food. Here in Kansas City, we’ve got SNOW in the forecast for the next two days. Snow. In May. So comfort food it is. And the king of all comfort foods around here is tomato soup and a grilled cheese sandwich. This is a small batch…
Cinco de Mayo Round-Up from My Kitchen
Planning to celebrate Cinco de Mayo this weekend? I’ve got lots of gluten-free options to share with you from right here in my kitchen! First up, my favorite variation on Guacamole, Grilled Pineapple Avocado Salad. Next, a quick and easy way to make tamales with a meatless filling that fools carnivores every time, Jackfruit Tamale…
Asian Edamame Salad
Last night I hosted a dinner party for the first group of folks to complete my 21-Day Spring Into Healthy Eating program. We had a nine course meal (ten if you count the cocktail), each course representing a different country or region of the world. Goodness, we ate well! Our salad course was my Asian…
I Ate Here: T. Loft, Kansas City, MO
Two of my favorite things, fresh juice and gluten-free baked goods, are now available in one beautiful spot in South Kansas City. I like this spot so much that you won’t get an even-handed review from me. I’ve got nothing critical to say, just a recommendation that you visit SOON. T. Loft is located in…
Sunny Tacos and My Favorite Taco Seasoning
For the past couple of years, I’ve made a taco filling with walnuts. It’s very quick to make and really tasty. Until you need something with no nuts. While I can’t eradicate the human nuts from my kitchen, I knew I could find a way to make meatless tacos that were also nut free and…
I Ate Here: Frontera Grill, Chicago
I’ve long been a fan of Chef Rick Bayless. Several times I’ve walked by his community of restaurants in Chicago (Xoco, Frontera, Topolabampo) but was always on the way to a dinner reservation elsewhere or a work commitment. On a recent trip to Chicago, I made sure I wouldn’t walk by again without stopping in…
