Birria Tacos, but MAKE IT VEGAN! Sounds like an oxymoron, right? Hailing from Jalisco, Mexico, Birria Tacos are normally made with pork or beef and simmered in a super aromatic broth or consomé of chilies, warm spices, garlic, onion and tomato. I have never eaten Birria Tacos before, but that doesn’t mean I can’t try …
I have had my fair share of chicken caesar wraps in my life (yes, there was a time I ate chicken – we won’t talk about it). And they’re generally all dissatisfying – overly dressed, too tangy, too creamy, not the right balance of flavors, gloopy – the list goes ON. One thing that is …
When we were little my dad told us that this popular South Indian dish ‘Chicken 65’ was made with 65-day-old chicken. Keep in mind that my dad has been a lifelong vegetarian and has never eaten meat in his life, but he is a surgeon, so that may explain the grotesque detail in his theory. …
I may go as far as to say that focaccia is top tier bread – maybe even among my top 5 favorite breads. So, when the fabulous Jessie Sheehan introduced me to her recipe for a one bowl, no-rise Irish-inspired focaccia, I couldn’t resist. But we didn’t just stop there – we took her already …

I can’t believe we’re on Episode TEN – yes, that’s 10 – of My Ecokitchen! This week was Earth Day, but as you all know, I try and celebrate the Earth everyday. As exhibited by Episode 10. Beets are polarizing – people either hate them or love them. I happen to be in the LOVE …
It’s my Super Bowl aka EARTH DAY! But, who am I kidding?! Earth Day is EVERY day for me. I try to respect, honor and cherish the earth everyday – she does so much for us and has given us so much, shouldn’t we at least try to give back to her a little? She’s …
It’s Monday in April, which means a brand new episode of My Ecokitchen! Can you believe we’re already on Episode 7?! There is nothing stopping me, people! But before I go on about my latest sustainable recipe, I have a disclaimer – please do a small test before eating any fruit or vegetable peels that …
What can we be doing as individuals to help our planet? Well, it starts on our plate. No, I’m not trying to “brainwash” you into becoming vegan, but I am trying to raise awareness on how our actions affect the environment (and mostly negatively, unfortunately). For instance – food waste. Over 40% of the food …
Do you love Williams Sonoma?! Yeah, THAT Williams Sonoma – one of THE greatest kitchenware stores ever! Well, I am thrilled to share that I am doing my first book signing at Williams Sonoma Columbus Circle in NYC! Yes, my book is 2+ years old, but it came out during the global pandemic, so I …
