Today I am going to be constructively deconstructive. Because realistically, I am probably not going to roll my own sushi. I mean, I think it sounds like a ton of fun, and I am sure I would get a lot of laughs at how hilariously bad I would be at it…I mean just yesterday I

Quinoa Fried “Rice”
The other day Hubby came home from a long day with a headache. So being the crazy person totally normal person I am, I immediately knew I wanted to make a dinner loaded up with foods high in magnesium. He gets migraines from time to time, and sometimes a regular headache can turn into a

Vegan Broccoli Stir Fry
It’s been a good week. I am loving the longer days, and while the temps are still a little too brisk to be Spring, they are definitely creeping higher! I know this weekend is St. Patrick’s day, so I should be making something like cabbage rolls, or shamrock shakes, but I kinda dropped the ball

Fried Rice
Serves 4 If you have the forethought, I advise cooking the rice a day or 2 before you use “fry” it. This works for you in a twofold, first its less time to whip up this dinner (really just the time it takes to measure and chop because it cooks in a flash). And second

Cold Asian Bean Salad
Serves 2 I use tahini (sesame seed butter) in here to round out the sauce; it adds sort of a creamy quality. If you don’t have it don’t sweat, you can sub in some peanut butter. It won’t be exactly the same, but delicious nonetheless! This couldn’t be easier, so it’s awesome for a
