Happy new week, friends! As we head toward Labor Day weekend, the unofficial end of summer, I’m not feeling dread about it like I usually would (I am not a fan of cold weather). Instead, I’m very excited because my birthday is on September 3rd and this year I’ll be spending the day before at…
Breakfast
Red Curry Tofu Scramble
I didn’t post a recipe last week. I’ve missed a scheduled day here and there over the past year and a half, but never a whole week. Part of the reason is because I’ve been spending a lot of time running. This is a sport that’s new to me again after making modest attempts at…
Vegan Migas Breakfast Tacos
Last week I mentioned spending some time in Austin and eating my weight in Arlo’s food truck‘s mac ‘n’ cheese. But something I didn’t mention is that I also went to the legendary Veracruz All Natural for some of its world-class migas tacos—and I haven’t stopped thinking about them since. If you’re not familiar, migas…
Fruity Overnight Oat Cups
If you’re a regular reader of this site you know that I post two recipes per week. I had every intention of doing that this week, but I fell behind because of travel. Laura and I were down in Texas for the past four days, visiting San Antonio and Austin. Both were fun, but Austin…
Golden Raisin and Rosemary Muffins
I’m not much of a breakfast guy, even on the weekends. I’d be happy to eat exactly the same thing every morning—which is what I do most of the time—and be on my way. But I do like to cook for my wife, and I want to bulk up the breakfast section on this site,…
Coffee Scones with Maple Glaze
Fall is officially here, even though it was about 75 degrees today here in Montclair. But even though the weather’s warm, that doesn’t stop all the fall flavors from rolling out. Pumpkin Spice is, of course, everywhere you look. I did love the latte when Starbucks introduced it years ago, but the way it’s taken…
Bodega Breakfast Sandwich with Avocado
Living in New York City means stopping by a bodega once in a while to grab something quick like a drink or a roll of toilet paper. (Or, if you’re lucky, to pet the bodega owner’s cat.) It’s pretty great to have places like that nearby for when you don’t feel like trekking all the…
Basic Mexican Tofu Scramble
I’ve never been much of a breakfast guy, and I think eggs have crossed my lips maybe three times in my life, unless you count the times they were wrapped up in a creamy mayonnaise or a velvety cake blanket. That’s why when I discovered tofu scramble—a staple of the vegan morning—I kept my distance….
