Creamy Potato Split Pea Soup

Creamy Potato Split Pea Soup

March 10, 2017
11
Recently, I’ve been really into bringing leftovers to work for lunch. Specifically, I like leftovers that come from a big pot of something and I preferably can eat it with a spoon. It’s also best if I can dip toast in it. This potato split pea soup falls into that category. Our office has the [...]

Cravings have a funny way of taking over your life. Or maybe that’s just me. Once I start craving something, I have a hard time thinking about anything else. And that’s how this Thai Peanut Tofu and Sweet Potato Bowl began- as a craving. It first hit me while I was at work. Peanut sauce. [...]

“They seem to be really into these corncake things,” I said while perusing the restaurant’s online menu on my iPhone. We were in Portland, Oregon, looking for a place to eat breakfast on a weekday. “Well, the menu sounds pretty good. Let’s go there,” said my friend. So we piled into the car and they [...]

Harrisa Sweet Potato & Lentil Chili

Harissa Sweet Potato & Lentil Chili

February 15, 2017

I don’t know about you, but I’m all about big, warm bowls of comfort-goodness these days. I could be wrong (*enter sarcasm here), but I think it has to do with the current climate- weather and political. Anyway, our dinners recently have been a constant rotation of creamy soups, chunky stews, and this spicy lentil [...]

Not About Food: An Introvert’s Guide to the Resistance

February 7, 2017

This dark and, frankly, very terrifying moment in US history has lit a fire inside many people that normally don’t get very political. I’m one of those people. I’ve always cared and paid attention to big issues and I’ve always voted but I mostly stayed out of it. It was never “my thing.” But now, [...]

I grew up in a fast food family. Getting dinner from a drive-thru was a regular occurrence. One of my family’s regular go-to’s was Foster’s Freeze (we had one a few minutes from our house), where my mother would always get a large order of taquitos. Of course, these taquitos were completely not vegan, being [...]

How many awesome words are in that title, amiright? Nachos, Mac and Cheese, Tacos- they’re basically every vegan’s three favorite food groups. You may be asking: How, pray tell, did you manage to put them all together into one handheld festival of deliciousness? I’ll break it down for you. I combined regular ol’ mac and [...]

Not About Food: 5 Things 2016 Has Taught Me

December 29, 2016

I know I’m not alone in thinking that 2016 has been one douchebag of a year. According to my Facebook feed, the large majority of my friends have some choice words about 2016 and what they’d like it to do with itself. Several times this year, especially in these last couple of months, Chris and I [...]

Gluten-Free Vegan Cinnamon Rolls with Cream Cheese Icing

I wish I could put this recipe for Gluten-Free Vegan Cinnamon Rolls down as a Christmas Miracle but that would signify that this recipe just happened suddenly, miraculously, on its own. But that’s not how this went down at all. In actuality, I’ve tested this recipe, tweaking it each time, no less than 25 times. I [...]

It’s winter. I love this time of year. Everything feels so sparkly and magical and cozy and warm. Or at least it usually does. This year, I’m having to struggle to feel the coziness, to see the sparkle. I’m closing in on one year without my mother and just this week, it’s been 3 years [...]

It was just after 2 am on a fall evening in downtown San Jose. A dear girlfriend of mine, my ex-boyfriend, a another (male) friend, and I were walking home from a club. We were in our early 20’s and drunk in the way that only those who have finally earned the right to start drinking [...]

While sweet waffles are totally my jam, I often like to mix things up with some savory waffles. Most recently, I did a savory spin on the Miso-Tahini Waffles, making these incredible Bánh Mì Waffles for dinner. If you’ve followed this blog for awhile, you know that I love my Bánh Mì. I’ve made Bánh Mì Burgers [...]

I love writing and I do a lot of it. Only about half of it is about food- recipes, travel logs, restaurant reviews. I’ve been toying with the idea of occasionally sharing some of my non-food-related writing here at Keepin’ It Kind for awhile now. Today I decided to just jump in and do it. Enjoy. [...]

The first week of July in 2015, Chris and I went on a road trip with our canine companion, Samantha. She was the best road trip dog. She loved to stand with her back paws on the edge of the backseat with her front paws on the center console in the front seat, between the [...]
