Vegetarian Asian NoodlesYou can add tofu, chicken, pork or shrimp to this dish, as well as any of your favorite veggies. You can substitute peanut butter or almond butter for the tahini, and if you want a spicier dish, you can add more chili-garlic sauce. For a more authentic dish, you can use Chinese egg noodles, udon, soba or dried or fresh ramen noodles. |

Indian Stuffed Okra (Bhindi Masala)The reason most folks don't have Okra in their first string of recipes is they don't know the right spices to use. Indian spiced okra dishes are gems. Your kids won't like it, but you and your friends will. This dish can be served as a side to Indian meats, can also be used as a side to bbq (cajun bbq), or can be served as a main… |

She isn't a fancy cook, more of a comfort food cook. She utilizes seasonal ingredients she has on hand and from her garden. She served this dish with sekihan, a Japanese rice with azuki beans,… |

Sweet & Tangy Sauteed ColeslawThis is a refreshing change from the mayonnaise based potato salad and Coleslaw that's devoured throughout the summer. Coleslaw with an Asian flare can't be beat for something just a tad different. Sprinkle the seame seeds after it's been cooked so the dish has a nutty, crunchy taste. If you'd like a similar recipe with a bit of… |

The Raw And The Uncooked, A Meatless Monday SpecialI'm loving this whole meatless Monday business. It's great to take a break from the same old same old. One of my food blogger friends Jeroxie at Addictive and Consuming, had a post up last night where she was describing some simply divine potato and pea samosas made with filo dough. I had no business reading it at that hour as I was… |

Gujarati Vegetables With Lime And Cilantro!Ever since Paula Wolfert gave me a Clay Coyote Flameware skillet the other day, I've been jonesing to use it. However, at the same time I got the skillet, I also got all inspired to fix some meatless Indian raw salads that I'd learned of from a cookbook she'd also given me. I kept staring at the beautiful Flameware skillet up on the… |

"Whoa!" I thought. What a kickoff to Meatless Monday. Whatever that big bird was looking for, he was not going to find it in my kitchen… |

Green Beans With Someting Extra! Plus A Giveaway!I never was a big green bean fan growing up. Mainly because the beans I was usually served weren't green at all but rather grey and flabby, the 90 pound weaklings of beans. They didn't look like they were full of vitamins and raring to go to work on my system but rather as though they'd spent their short bean life couch-surfing and… |
