I had a long day at work and when I got home, I was hungry and wanting to relax. Fortunately for me, there is one simple solution to both of those problems: COOK! I know a lot of people don’t enjoy cooking or it is something that they don’t think of as a relaxing activity. I guess [...]

A Non-Compensated Opinion

From time to time, I give my thoughts about something that I’ve tried or experienced. I always do this because I like something. I have never made anything from this blog nor have I ever received anything from anyone/anything I write about. I don’t have any plans to change this policy. With that in mind, [...]

I’ve been trying to find some healthy and vegetarian ways to re-create some of my favorite foods and tonight I achieved my greatest healthy, vegetarian version of a classic yet. I made jambalaya. Yes, the classic Cajun food that brings together all three food groups, pork, chicken and shrimp and blends them with veggies and rice into [...]
Trying Something New

Sometimes, there are foods that I am aware of but I have never had the opportunity to try or have not made myself. Last night, those two forces combined into one fantastic dinner. For a long time now, I have known about tempeh: a soy product that is related to tofu but contains grains in addition [...]

Today I went to the store and picked up a bunch of stuff that I’m going to use to work on creating a few new recipes. Once I have a recipe or two, I’ll post them here along with pictures of what I have come up with. For now, a sneak preview. French Green Lentils [...]
The Power of Healthy Cooking

This evening I made the sesame crusted tofu that I had found the recipe for earlier this week. It was as good as I thought it would be. The tofu was crispy and the sesame seeds were the perfect touch to give the tofu some really nice flavor. The ultimate test of just how good it [...]
Some Tofu Recipes

I’ve really begun to enjoy cooking with tofu. I use extra firm tofu to cook with or silken tofu in place of yoghurt in smoothies. I’ve been on the lookout for good tofu recipes and have found three that I am anxious to try. I’ll probably make one or two of them this weekend. Stay [...]
I Stand Corrected

Apparently I had a mis-reading on my scale yesterday. Before I got on it today, I noticed that it wasn’t aligned correctly and fixed it. It turns out I’ve lost more than I thought and I’m now down to 289. That means I’ve lost 41 POUNDS!! I’m now over halfway to my goal of getting [...]
An amazing dinner

I just finished up a great dinner. The other day at the store, I picked up some extra firm tofu. I looked around for a recipe for it and found one for BBQ tofu. It looked pretty good so I made it. I can’t wait to make it again! I’ve had a lot of different [...]
