Loaded BBQ Pulled Jackfruit Nachos

Is anyone else as excited as I am that it’s Friday and we have a three day weekend ahead of us? Mr. Fuji and I surprised the girls when they got home from school today with a little family trip to Idaho Falls. We are looking forward to some family time to explore, have fun […]

If you are a sushi lover like I am, and you like to cook, there’s a new book out that you need! It’s called The Vegetable Sushi Cookbook by Izumi Shoji and it takes a different approach to sushi-making than you might be accustomed to!

I’m a breakfast for dinner sort of girl, and a good tofu scramble definitely fits the bill! A few weeks ago I whipped up this tofu scramble for dinner, throwing in spinach, carrots, mushrooms, red onion, garlic, and zucchini from the garden. When I started cooking I had no intentions of posting the recipe. But […]

Tonight is Back-to-School Night at our school and the first day of school is next Tuesday (August 16th). I know that the New Year for most of the world starts on January 1st, but […]

I have always loved the croissants stuffed with chicken salad that always seem to be served at baby showers or other luncheons, so I decided to come up with a fresh twist on them and whipped up a chicken chickpea salad, including some of the normal ingredients, like halved grapes and creamy mayo-based dressing. I […]

Harmons Grocery recently challenged me to develop a recipe using ingredients from their new line of private label items. I decided it was the perfect opportunity to work on a recipe that I had been playing with for a while, a recipe for red lentil chili. I tried a recipe for a red lentil […]

Squirrel and Bug are both huge tomato addicts. I also adore tomatoes, but when I was pregnant with them I craved them like nothing else. I’ve always wondered if the copious amounts of tomatoes I consumed during pregnancy had any influence on their love of the fruit. Their love of tomatoes also translates into a love […]
