    Couscous Recommendations

    What do you like to eat with couscous?! In the past, I've had it with roasted veggies (like squash), and recently I've tried roasted eggplant, but it didn't quite hit the spot for me. I found a yummy couscous recipe with pine nuts, scallions and raisins, and am perfectly happy to eat just...

    Veggie/Sauce/Pasta Combinations

    I've recently discovered rosé sauce and I am hopelessly in love. ? But I had it with penne and some veggie crumbles (vegetarian ground beef substitute) and felt that these detracted from the sauce somehow. ? The crumbles felt too heavy and the penne just didn't seem right for the rosé texture...

    My Guac is missing something!

    Hello all :) I recently decided to give making my own guacamole a try. I found a recipe that I like but it includes one thing I just can't get behind: sundried tomatoes ?. So naturally, I tried going along with the recipe (red and green onion, lime juice, salt and pepper, cilantro), and just...

    Stir-fry (or other Healthy-ish Suggestions)

    I went vegetarian this year and have recently started making an effort to eat "better," whatever that really means. Mainly, I've been trying to eat more veggies and protein and less pizza (cheese and bread). Basically this seems to mean salad (which I'm quite tired of at this point) or tofu...

    ISO Simple, Quick, Decent Protein?

    Hi all, I went vegetarian earlier this year and am currently struggling to find some decent recipes. I've been pretty bad about just throwing a quick salad together or just making a cheese quesadilla. I desperately need more variety! And definitely more protein... but preferably not beans...

    Help with a "Chinese" Dish

    It's Americanized Chinese. But I still can't figure out what I'm doing... Almost every time my roommate and I order Chinese, I get Curry Chicken. I don't know if it's the same everywhere... but here, it's basically chicken, onion, green pepper, and some other vegetables depending on where it...

    Sauce for Mushroom Ravioli?

    I went to the grocery store hungry one day and bought mushroom ravioli. I don't really know what I was thinking, I've never done anything with mushroom ravioli before, and now I have no idea what to eat it with. Red sauce doesn't sound super appealing for some reason. What kind of sauce would...

    ISO more uses for tilapia

    I've been eating a lot of tilapia lately. I put it in a foil "packet" with lemon juice, olive oil, garlic salt, and some spicy seasoning. I really love it this way, but I know I'll get sick of it soon if this is the only thing I ever do with it! What are some of your favorite ways to use tilapia?

    Baked Potato Ideas

    Mom bought a giant sack of potatoes at the store and told me she wanted baked potatoes for dinner. I'm really excited about this; I haven't had a baked potato in way too long! I've never baked a potato by myself before though! It's always looked simple enough, but tonight was the first time I...

    I need something relatively simple to make for dinner tonight! I feel stupid for not being able to come up with anything because I know there is an answer staring me right in the face, I just can't see it! Things in the house (besides the single can of shredded chicken): Shredded "Mexican...

    ISO Simple Mexican Food Ideas

    I have plenty of ground beef and a can of refried beans hanging out in my kitchen and I'm dying to use them in something. I think I have most of the "Americanized Mexican food" staples in the kitchen as well: lettuce, tortillas, cheese, onion, taco seasoning, etc. In any case, I was hoping for...

    Chicken Breast Ideas

    I have about an hour to come up with an idea for, make, and eat a chicken breast that is currently thawing in my kitchen. So far I've made: Honey Stir-fry, Chicken Parmesan, and a chicken/mashed potatoes/bacon bowl type thing. I'm pretty tired of all of the above. Any ideas for me? Thanks!! :chef:
