Sticky Tofu with Sweet Sesame Sauce

It’s a new week but I’m starting it the same way I started last week – with a tofu recipe! I wouldn’t normally eat this much tofu in such a short time span but that’s because I am cooking through a cookbook and these recipes just come one after another. It’s a good thing I…

Teriyaki Jackfruit w/ Curry Udon Noodles

As you can see from the title of this post, there are two components to today’s recipe: teriyaki jackfruit and curry udon noodles. Let’s start with the jackfruit because that was the new ingredient for me. I have seen lots of recipes online using jackfruit because of how versatile it is in cooking. The main…

Pineapple Fried Rice

It is Monday and I can’t believe it’s already the second week of June! 2022 has just been flying by and it’s been a pretty great year so far but I still can’t believe how fast it’s going. Something else that is flying by, is the recipes in this Brave New Meal cookbook. I believe…

Chicken Lettuce Cups

Have you ever had lettuce cups? They’re a cute and fun way to hold delicious fillings. I first saw them made with a Chinese ground meat filling but you could use any variety of ingredients and flavours. One good option would be Mexican-inspired with taco seasoning and then tomato and avocado as garnish. My lettuce…

Viral Salmon & Rice
