I’ve dreamed of going to a place called Macadamia, or probably New Zealand. Point is, Macadamia sounds like a beautiful land, not something related to food. Yet here we are, and there you are, getting ready to engage and enjoy this recipe. (I’ll be fantasizing about enjoying this meal in Macadamia at sunset, with an […]

Despite the ole palate being somewhat basic, I’ve always been a salad guy. As far as this specific one goes though, well; without spell check I’d probably end up spelling couscous wrong, so that’s to say I’m not too familiar with it. Thankfully you don’t have to share the same bewildered state, so enjoy! 1⁄4 […]

Full disclosure, I’m not a lentil guy; so much so that honestly, I’m not entirely sure what they are or how they’re grown. But part of dealing with having a basic palate is admitting as much, and from there I can grow, like lentils do on trees right? 1 cup brown lentils, picked over, rinsed, […]

I don’t know what the first word means, I think I’ve heard of the second, and sometimes I’ll have spinach in my romaine salads. That said, I’m sure this is the bee’s knees as dishes (?) goes, so please enjoy! 4 tablespoons olive oil 8 ounces seitan, homemade or storebought, cut into 1⁄2-inch strips 3 […]

Now this is definitely more in Matty’s wheelhouse… Which is to say, like, there are components of brushetta I like, just not all together. However it’s the basic part of this recipe that I’m a fan of, as that’s the general path my eating habits take. 4 to 6 thick slices Italian bread Olive oil, […]

“Hey, yeah no I’m good… Thank you though, it looks so… So mushroomy.” Is about the response I’d give if someone were to offer me this dish. Essentially becuase, if I can see part of this recipe growing in the middle of my lawn outback after a few rainstorms in the summer, I’ve already checked […]

You know, I’m not really an oatmeal guy… Reminds me of being a kid in the winter with no cereal or milk in the house, and this was the only alternative… With an inch thick of dust on top of the container, I would look and sigh, wondering if snowy grass outback would be a […]

There’s not much I can say about this… I know there’s a Tempe Arizona, I remember not liking Pimiento loaf as a kid, or as an adult, and cheese is okay I guess if jacked. Now if that doesn’t make sense no worries, this delicious recipe will! 8 ounces tempeh, cut into 1⁄2-inch pieces 1 […]

Yep, definitely going to eat this. For. Sure. Seriously though; I like Cherry Dr. Pepper, peppers in chipotle sauce form, tomatoes when they’re called ketchup, and no salt peanuts… This recipe though? Well, let’s just hope it combines better than what I like! 1 (16-ounce) jar hot or mild cherry peppers, drained 2 tablespoons olive […]

Brace yourself, but I’m a little iffy on what a fritter is; and how it couples with basic vegetables. But I’m open to learning new things and all, it being a new year and the like. So there you go, 2021 right?! 2 cups raw, grated, or cooked mashed vegetables 1⁄4 cup grated onion or […]
