FALL HARVEST SALAD WITH CRISPY HALLOUMI + IDAHO!

SMOKY SHAKSHUKA WITH GRILLED BREAD.

BLACK SESAME TOFU TACOS WITH SRIRACHA SOUR CREAM & KIMCHI MARINATED VEGGIES.

Remember that one time I tried to make kimchi but it never fermented so I just had a boatload of kimchi marinated veggies? Yah, me too. And even though it didn’t work out the way I’d hoped and dreamed, it…

HEIRLOOM TOMATO & NECTARINE CAPRESE WITH BURRATA AND CRISPY BASIL.
