Have you ever eaten Chicken Satay? It’s this beautiful golden-yellow-orange chicken skewer served with a spice peanut sauce. This recipe is inspired by my travels to Thailand in 2016 (almost 10 years ago!) and growing up eating chicken satay (I know, my former dark ages). This delicious Tofu aka Chick’n Satay with Peanut Sauce can …
Birria Tacos | MAKE IT VEGAN
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 …
Low-waste Crispy Chick’n Caesar Wrap | MAKE IT VEGAN
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 …
Cauliflower 65 | MAKE IT VEGAN
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. …
Tadka Focaccia | MAKE IT VEGAN
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 …

Eco-Cooking: Episode 10 Beet Top Pasta
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 …
HAPPY EARTH DAY (everyday)! 🌎♻️
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!

Eco-Cooking: Episode 1 Carrot Top Pesto
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 …
