Food: Anchovies lift pesto dish to fit-for-company
When I first met my soon-to-be husband, he told me his favorite food/flavor was pesto. Being a novice cook, and fairly unsophisticated, I had never tried to make pesto, thinking it had to be some fancy Italian preparation that I could never master. But I tackled the challenge with gusto: I purchased a basil plant and began plucking the tiny leaves for the recipe.

Chicken Pasta Salad with Yogurt-Mango Sauce
I paid a visit to my local hippie-dippy market last weekend, and couldn’t resist gawking at their deli counter. It’s filled with so many healthy things, just one setback: all ridiculously expensive. Like, $8 for a mouthful. I caved and ordered the world’s smallest container of pasta salad, then reverse engineered the recipe at home. I used leftover roasted chicken meat from the previous night, and made enough salad for 6 large servings.

Deena Kakaya Vegetarian Recipes & Cooking
Somewhere along the journey, the lines between work and play, rest and recreation changed. For most of the years that my husband and I have been together, we shared energy and squinted-eyed enthusiasm for filling our pockets of free time with making memories, having fun, exploring, travelling and being spontaneous in a sensible sort of way. Our summers were long and full of weekends away and eating outdoors and with friends in the weekday evenings.
Ingredient Spotlight: Berbere, a Fiery, Aromatic, and Highly Flavorful Seasoning Blend from North Africa
If you have ever had Ethiopian food or any food from countries in the Horn of Africa (Djibouti, Eritrea, and Somalia), you have probably encountered Berbere. Like za’atar in the Middle East and harissa in North Africa, berbere is a staple seasoning that can be found across all kinds of dishes in various countries in Africa. Let’s learn a little more about what berbere is, what it tastes like, and how we can incorporate it into our cooking. What is Berbere? Brian Yarvin/Shutterstock
Healthy Green Kitchen Homemade Sriracha Sauce
Yes, I am aware that it’s Valentine’s Day, and that today I am “supposed to” post about cookies, or something chocolate-related, or maybe a romantic dish you could cook for your sweetheart. The thing is, I figured you can find all that good stuff on a bazillion other blogs, so I decided to share something non V-Day related (but totally rad if you love hot sauce): Homemade Sriracha! I’ve got a special place in my heart for homemade condiments: sauces and such you could buy, but which are much fresher and healthier when you make them at home. I’ve made this recipe many times and it’s pretty much my go-to diy Asian hot sauce recipe. But I am always up for something new, so I was excited when I saw Jaden has a sriracha recipe in her new book: Steamy Kitchen’s Healthy Asian Favorites This sriracha is pretty different from the super red kind you can find in a bottle.
Creamy tzatziki/raita
Photo Credit: ELLE Dining as a college kid is tough, especially when you’re plucked from the protective wings of your sorority house/dorm cafeteria and tossed into your own pint-sized apartment. Sure, you could throw a Lean Cuisine into the microwave, but there’s something about eating a highly processed meal that sort of skeeves me out. You could bake a huge casserole that will last the whole week…but I don’t know about you, but I can’t stand eating the exact same meal more than twice in a row. Getting take-out every night is either expensive, unhealthy, or both, and cooking a square meal every night is too time-consuming for most college (or working!)

From the molten yolk and bacon crunch of a hand-held breakfast, to the gooey charm of grilled cheese for lunch, nothing matches the simple pleasures of well-made sandwiches. They're quick to assemble, infinitely adaptable, easy to eat, and immediately satisfying—the very definition of good food. The 25 sandwiches you're about to meet can be thrown together during the average basketball halftime or, with practice, during the seventh-inning stretch. (Who needs hot dogs, anyway?) Use each recipe as a basic road map, but bring your talent for finding creative routes. You'll easily reach your final destination: a full belly and a satisfied smile.
