Spicy Tahini Rice Bowl
View recipe: Spicy Tahini Rice BowlThis recipe was inspired by The Stingy Vegan but because we live in Germany right now, where you can’t get every vegetable on the planet year-round, we had to improvise.

Thai Spring Rolls

Mini Frittatas & Smoked Salmon Pinwheels
View recipe: Mini Frittatas & Smoked Salmon PinwheelsLike most people, I absolutely love the weekends. I work for myself so it isn’t so much about what the weekend represents—time away from annoying coworkers and clueless bosses—but more about the relaxing culture that encompasses all weekends.

There are foods that my tongue simply refuses to acknowledge as tasty such as eggplant and spinach.
