It was only recently that I discovered the magic of shishito peppers. They were front and center at the grocery store and I figured why not buy some and see what I can do. Well I was instantly hooked because they’re almost a blank canvas when it comes to preparing them. They’re a great as a side or mixed into a stir fry with a protein like seitan; they blend well, which makes them excellent for soups and sauces; and they, of course, make an excellent appetizer—how I’ve used them here.

What’s great about these Shishito Peppers with Lemon Soy Glaze is that they’re full of flavor and take almost no time to make. They’re an excellent app, but they also work as a healthier snack, too. The glaze is relatively low-calorie and the peppers themselves have maybe 20 per quarter-pound. So you can eat a million of these guilt-free, which I’ve done more often than I care to admit.

Hi there! 👋 It’s been quite a while since I’ve posted. Turns out training for a marathon takes just about all of your effort. Who knew? But I’m back now with what I hope will be the first of consistent weekly recipes (at least until the next marathon 😂).

This one is for Baked Tofu and Baby Bok Choy. It’s SUPER simple and takes very little effort. Plus it’s totally versatile too; you can serve it with rice, with noodles, or even in a soup—whatever you’re feeling on the day. 

I used @nasoya’s extra firm tofu here because it’s non-GMO Project verified, USDA organic, cholesterol-free, gluten-free, and preservative-free. All the things I look for when buying products these days.

I’m so happy to be back sharing recipes and can’t wait to pit a few more out there in the upcoming weeks!

But that’s still comfort food weather to me, and nothing fits the bill better than this Beefless Beef Stew with @gardein Beefless Tips—a long-time reader favorite on the NFV website. It’s hearty and totally delicious. Grab the recipe link in my profile and enjoy!
We have a wonderful ramen restaurant here in our t We have a wonderful ramen restaurant here in our town of Montclair. They offer a vegan version they is out of this world. But whenever we order from them Laura and I are equally, of not more, excited about the edamame they serve: it’s tossed in chili oil and charred. So amazing. Of course I had to take a shot at recreating it for the site and this Chili-Charred Edamame recipe was born. It’s great as either an appetizer or a snack!
