Think of them as fries with a pulse! That pulse is chickpeas—so, literally, they do feature a pulse. Indulging in these chickpea fries with mint and sumac will satisfy that craving for French fries along with an extra punch of protein. The “real” name for these bites of scrumptiousness is panisse—a street food snack that’s popular in the south of France.

fresh zhoug

Zhoug (or zhug or schug) is a Middle Eastern sauce (originally from Yemen) featuring herbs, spices, and chili peppers. I’ve been enjoying it for eons … it may be my favorite condiment of all time! This fresh zhoug is considered a hot sauce, but this version offers just a hint of heat since you’ll remove the seeds and veins (membranes) of the jalapeños or other chili peppers to allow all the other bright and earthy flavors to shine.

fuchsia fun sauce

What exactly is fuchsia fun sauce? It’s just an easy roasted beet sauce. But I prefer my name for it because, after all, it’s fuchsia, it’s fun, and it’s a sauce!

I’m a big, BIG fan of Kung Pao tempeh or tofu; so, I figured why not spread the love by making Kung Pao Drizzle Sauce to transform practically anything into a kung pao inspired dish. It’s really easy to make. And it’s got wow-worthy taste!

nuts & seeds plant-based pesto

by Jackie Newgent | August 14, 2020 | 2 Comments

There’s no such thing as too much basil because … pesto! More specifically, this nuts & seeds plant-based pesto! While I always feel strangely guilty about pulling off so many basil leaves from my plants, leaving them rather naked, I never feel guilty when diving into a dollop (or four!) of freshly prepared pesto. I make it sooo many different ways—and make it really, really, really often in the summer, if you didn’t already know that about me! But, this 100% plant-based pesto is definitely one of my newest favorite versions. Enjoy it on anything … or just plain pasta!
