I love going to a Korean restaurant and getting Gamja Jorim as one of the sides. I also found out that my kiddo loves this potato dish so I decided to give it a shot. Begin by peeling and dicing the potatoes into cubes. Heat up a pan on medium, add some oil and then…

Chocolate Zucchini Banana Loaf
My kid (and partner) is going through a stage where they won’t eat as many veggies as I would like them to. So I decided to get creative and add veggies in EVERYTHING!! Including our banana bread recipe. I used the banana bread recipe from our food blog but included 1/2 cup of grated zucchini….
Pear and Brie Tart
This is a very easy tart that is savory and sweet and would go well as an appetizer, breakfast, starter or snack. You can change this up by using other types of pears and I have seen recipes that add thyme and other herbs to it. I made this recipe using Anjou Pears. Slice the…
Bulgogi Lentils
I love trying out meals with a twist and having the need to eat healthier, cleaner, and more sustainable has made me consider adding more plant protein to my diet. Occasionally, I would cook beef bulgogi, a Korean beef dish. I love it because of the subtle sweet soy sauce taste to the beef. I…

Pickled Soy Garlic
Do you ever buy so much garlic that they start getting moldy and gross? Well that’s our family. We usually get peeled garlic since it is convenient but I find that they get mold and mushy fast. I have preserved garlic using vinegar and they were tasty. Here is that recipe for Laba Garlic. You…
