Sweet Potato, Black Bean and Quinoa Cakes
I love the flavors and textures in these Sweet Potato, Black Bean and Quinoa Cakes. These make great appetizers or snacks and pair great with a sour cream-Dijon dressing. From the original site: The cumin and rosemary pair well with the sweet potatoes in this dish, and the walnuts do, too. They also add a bit of crunch to the soft cakes. The quinoa and black beans help hold things together and keep the cakes moi…
Chinese New Year Inari Age Laughing Prawns Salad
Why the name “Laughing Prawns”? In Cantonese, the word for prawn is Ha (虾); or in Mandarin, it sounds like 哈, which means laughter. So let’s all go “Hahaha!” with this refreshing sweet & sour appetizer! Ingredients: 12 medium Prawns 2 Hard-boiled Eggs 1 Green Apple ½ Mango (not too ripe so it’s sourish) 1 slice of Watermelon 4 tbsp Salad cream/Mayonnaise (depending on preference) 12 Inar…

Kale-a-palooza Salad
I created this salad for a Food Blogger Los Angeles meeting called Kale-a palooza. We all brought kale dishes to our meeting. Kale is one of the healthiest, most nutrient-dense veggies on the planet. This holds up well as leftovers, too. From the original site: And so was born Kale-a-palooza Salad, a fitting main dish repast for any lunch or dinner when I want to feel like I’m eating cleaner than usual. Get th…
Avocado Hummus
The colors of Avocado Hummus are perfect for a seasonal celebration! Hummus is an easy, go-to dip, so why not pair it with the great taste and texture offered by avocados? From the original site: You can make one thing easy on yourself during the holiday season, whether you’re planning a party, or you need to feed the gang gathered at your place. Throw together Avocado Hummus and serve it up with toasted pita,…

Feta Salsa – A Super Easy Dip!
I love it when I am able to recreate a dish that I enjoyed elsewhere. One of the grocery stores I frequently shop is Whole Foods. I love this place and it serves as a food inspiration for me. They always have something new to sample and their dips of all descriptions are marketed via food stations throughout the store and usually by the cheese counter. I first encountered their cheddar-cheese-horseradish-di…
FRUIT MUSTARD DIP
It’s fat free, flavourful and like all my favourite recipes more of a concept than a fixed, structured recipe. There aren’t any specific quantities to the ingredients. Just bung them all in and then adjust depending on how sweet or mustard-y you like it Ingredients: Any fresh seasonal fruit with pulp – my favorites are watermelons, kiwis or oranges (if you don’t want the trouble of pulping ou…
