I haven’t posted in over two weeks because I’ve been so busy with graduation activities. I graduated from Boston University in December with a Bachelor’s Degree in Health Sciences (concentrating in Public Health) but, my school did not offer a graduation ceremony then. So, I participated in the all-university commencement and individual school graduation ceremony…
Lunch and Dinner
Strawberry Balsamic Lettuce Wraps
I am so excited about the warm spring weather that recently came over Boston. Yesterday, everyone was sitting outside on the grass, riding bikes, walking their dogs, and indulging in picnics. Everyone just seems happier. I know the warm weather gets me up and moving and gives me more energy to do things, hence also makes…
Pesto Zucchini Noodles with Spring Veggies
I am so excited for spring. In fact, I don’t think I have ever been THIS excited. But since Boston had one of the most brutal winters with regards to the snow, it is great to see the sun shine a tad bit more, the temperature increasing, and the snow finally beginning to melt.
Veggie Quinoa Maki
Nothing gets my mouth watering like a piece of sushi. I love all kinds of sushi, fish or vegetarian. There is something that gets me with the salty, chewy seaweed wrapped around the sweet and sour rice or quinoa that engulfs a variety of crunchy and creamy vegetables on the inside. Yummmmmmmm!
Miso Ramen Noodle Soup
It’s been a little while since my last post because it has been pretty busy lately. Since I last posted, I officially completed my applications to graduate school. Yay. I am now crossing my fingers and hoping I get in…please, oh please!
Raw Carrot “Pasta” with Spinach and Coconut Curry Sauce
Boy, did I need a clean healthy meal after all the junk food I ate during the holidays. Today was the first day that I did not allow myself to eat the leftover peppermint bark from Christmas, the pecan brittle sent from my family down South, or any of the delicious homemade cookies from our…
Baked Honey Garlic Cauliflower
Cauliflower seems to be the new “it” vegetable. You can make it into a mash as a substitute for mashed potatoes, you can make it into a sauce as an alternative to alfredo, or like in this recipe, you can treat it as a chicken substitute. Cauliflower is just SO good. It seems to be…
Thai Quinoa Salad with Peanut Sauce
I first fell in love with Thai food the summer after eighth grade. That summer, I started and finished all seasons of the show “The OC.” In that show, the family always ordered Pad Thai for dinner. So naturally, if the Cohen family loved it, I had to try it. I ordered the dish…
Tofu Tacos with Spinach, Avocado, and Pepper Jack
For some reason, I have had a weird craving for tacos lately. Tacos of all sorts. Fish tacos, chickpea tacos, veggie tacos, shrimp tacos, mushroom tacos, and of course, tofu tacos. So naturally I invested in a whole pack of some mini corn tortillas, which is hard to eat entirely by yourself unless you’re eating…
Summer Squash Spaghetti with Mushrooms, Broccolini, and Sun-Dried Tomatoes
About a month ago, it was my birthday. I asked my dad for a vegetable noodle maker because I kept seeing recipes around for vegetable noodles and they all looked so delicious. Well, when my birthday came around, that is exactly what he got me. I was so excited to use it. The summer…
