Kimchi Fried Rice

Chopped kimchi goes into the rice for a little crunch and a lot of flavor, and kimchi juice finishes the dish for a jolt of tangy-spicy goodness. It’s a quick meatless main dish that only needs a side of broccoli or a simple side salad to round out the meal. You can also add sautéed […]

Fresh Pea, Prosciutto, and Herb Salad 11

We love the green-on-green mix of crisp-tender haricots verts, peas, and protein-packed edamame. You could sub asparagus or regular green beans for the haricots verts, just remember they may need a minute longer to boil. Instead of tossing in the tomatoes (which would weigh down the delicate arugula mixture), we build the salad on top […]

Shortcut Shrimp Paella

A true paella requires time and several ingredients; this deconstructed version is ready in 20 minutes and uses just five ingredients. We swap expensive saffron for turmeric to achieve the classic yellow color, and bloom the spice in hot oil before sautéeing the other ingredients. We stick to fresh shrimp as the main protein (many […]
