Damn Good Dill Sauce
For the longest time I wasn’t able to have much dill. It’s not everyones cup of tea so not being able to make it as often as I’d like has me making up for lost time. This sauce is a one size fits all. I …

I love noodles and ramen more than anything these days. If I could eat it everyday without it seriously effecting my health and waistline I absolutely would. But these days it’s all about balance. Luckily I still love veggies just as much and this is …
This may seem like a weird combo, but boy does it ever work and to be completely honest it happened by accident. I initially was looking to make this with haloumi cheese. It’s one of those cheeses that are sometimes easy to find and sometimes not. This was one of the sometimes not times. That being said I’m always one to pivot and thus the Cojita Pesto Grilled Cheese was born.
At the end of the day a grilled cheese is a grilled cheese. It’s the base of something great, but the nuttiness of the pesto and saltiness of the cheese seemed to be a match made in heaven. One note is this grilled cheese is not for the faint of heart. It is robust, very flavourful and definitely rich. But that’s the beauty of it.
It’s been said you eat with your eyes first. This dish is no exception. That’s why this is ‘The Prettiest Rice Bowl Ever’. The ingredients involved require so many delicious elements and when put all together they are a match made in heaven. To get …
Tofu’s gotta bad rap I think. Often you think that tofu is bland, or tastes like nothing, or doesn’t add anything to the dish, and to those people I say GTFO. If you don’t like tofu maybe it wasn’t done properly? Give give soy a …
It’s no secret I’m obsessed with mushrooms. All of them. No mushroom is left unloved and I truly hope my mushroom love spreads far and wide to everyone else! That’s why I can’t wait to share with you these perfect smokey spicy enoki mushrooms. Enoki mushrooms are the kind of mushrooms you would typically find in ramen bowls or even inside some spring rolls. But I love them so much roasted to the extreme to where they become crispy and crunchy and almost burnt.
This recipe is pretty versatile in how far you want to take the cook based on what you’re using it for. If I’m having it as a snack I like to cook it a little further than you may think it needs to go, but if I’m using it in a rice dish (like this one here!) then I like to pull them a little sooner. It comes together in no time at all and I actually have used both my air fryer and oven for these guys so whichever you decide on using it’s up to you! I would suggest keeping an eye on them in the tail end of the cook because I do like them dark and crispy but not inedible.
Here we go!
Creamy, robust and delicious are a few adjectives I’d like to use to describe this dish.
What’s in a salad? It could be anything really! I think it’s a choose you’re own adventure type of dish and this is not different. I have an affinity towards warm salads and I’m not sure why. Perhaps they tend to be a bit more …
Cheese and broccoli are a match made in heaven, tell me otherwise! It is tale as old as time and this recipe is exactly that. For this I used some charred broccoli leftovers I had kicking around and I think it was the perfect addition. Typically broccoli leftovers are kinda smelly and aren’t the easiest to use up but I think this takes it to the next level. I also made fresh herby homemade breadcrumbs which added an extra delicious element.
When making this dish I do suggest charring your broccoli first. I know it seems like a lot of time but it really does give it that extra element of flavour, and the best part is you’d be using the same cast iron pan anyways. The oven will already be on and needed so it’s just a little bit of extra time for that extra result. Additionally while the broccoli is crisping in the oven it’s a great time to make your mornay sauce to make sure it’s all silky and delicious.
I can show you the world! And that world is The Best Cheesy Broccoli Au Gratin! Let’s get down to business! Too many Disney puns I know.
When I tell you my first bite into one of these fried oyster mushrooms took me back to eating calamari in BC I’m not lying! It was one of those crazy sensory moments you have and I’m hooked. The blend of spices and the slaw …
