The other day I was doing research for an article on how to cook with African flavors. That’s one of the hot food trends this year and I couldn’t be more excited. I love the bold flavors of African cuisine and it’s so diverse from region to region, that I know there are a lot […]

Jamaican Soy Curls in Curried Tomato Cream Sauce
Years ago when I first got into cooking, I would watch cooking shows on TV endlessly. I credit watching these shows with the majority of my cooking knowledge. Back then, I used to get some local cable channels that played cooking shows not aired on the usual giant networks. That was very fortunate for me […]
Vegan Jamaican Curried “Goat” Stew with Upton’s Naturals Seitan
Time does not heal all wounds. I know that I will be vegan for the rest of my life but that can never change that I wasn’t for the first half of my life. It can’t bring back all the animals who suffered and died for my appetite. While I look back and feel shame, […]
Product Review: Broccoleaf and a recipe for Jamaican (Ital) Soy Curls Curry with Broccoleaf
I love reviewing new vegan products and spreading the word about all the wonderful vegan items on the market. The one thing I usually don’t get to review, however, is vegetables. Well, not fresh vegetables, anyway. Most products are foods that come in jars, bags and boxes. Plus, I don’t usually think about vegetables as […]
Jamaican (Ital) Curried Jackfruit with Chickpeas
I love so many different ethnic cuisines, especially those with rice and spice, that sometimes it’s hard for me to choose a favorite. However, if a genie told me I could have any one cuisine placed in front of me right now, it would take me no time to choose – Jamaican food. Jamaican food, […]
Curried Tofu and Butternut Squash Sandwich with Caramelized Onions and Spicy Vegan Feta Aioli
Every time I get a butternut squash, I agonize over what to do with it. It is my favorite of all the winter squashes because it’s not as sweet as the others. I love the creaminess of this squash and it is so versatile which is why I struggle over what to do with […]
Vegan and Gluten-Free Tofu and Sweet Potato Curry
This dish came to be because I didn’t have a lot of vegetables on hand. It’s a mystery to me why I don’t cook more with sweet potatoes because I really do love them. My favorite way to eat them is simply baked when the skin gets crispy and crunchy and the inside is sweet […]
Indian Vegetable Curry with Mung Bean Fettuccine and Explore Asian Review & Giveaway
It used to feel that the only options one had when it came to pasta was which shape to buy – spaghetti, ziti, bowties, elbows, etc. Then when I began eating gluten-free, the number of choices I had dropped significantly – spaghetti, rotini and maybe fettuccine. But then I discovered eating other types of […]
Curried Pumpkin Soup with Apple Croutons and Pacific Foods Products Review
One of my favorite things about the colder seasons is making and eating lots of soup. Nothing warms you up better, inside and out, than holding a steaming bowl in your hands and spooning delicious, savory soup into your mouth. It’s warm, cozy and comforting. With Thanksgiving coming up, my cooking turns to all […]
Thai Green Curry Vegetables
The first time I ever tried Thai food, I didn’t like it. I didn’t like it the second time I tried it either. There was a Thai restaurant near my job in Tribeca and everyone loved it. My coworkers always insisted we go there for lunch. To me, everything tasted like it was covered in […]
