Vegan Bulgogi with Garlic Green Beans and Broccoli

I have always loved bulgogi, since I was a little girl living in South Korea (air force dad). It became a staple in our home my entire life so when I stopped eating meat, bulgogi was the one thing I missed the most (that and my grandma's oven fried chicken).

What is bulgogi? Essentially it's Korean bbq. My mother would slice beef extra thin, marinate for days, and then grill it. This version for goes the grill but you could stir in a tsp of liquid smoke to the sauce if you wanted to replicate that right off the grill taste. This version comes together super fast,giving you a full dinner in under thirty minutes and tastes like it came from a fancy restaurant. Even my meat eating mother in law said she couldn't tell it was vegan. Sweet!

I use soy curls for this recipe but it can also be made with tvp. I love the texture of soy curls and I love that they're barely processed.

The green beans could be subbed with asparagus, cauliflower would work in place of the broccoli... The sauce is incredible and would pair nicely with a lot of different things, even as a stir fry sauce or on pan fried noodles. Feel free to experiment and let me know what you come up with!

So if you choose to click and buy, thank you. It means a lot to us. Dutch babies are popular breakfast at our house. They're quick to make and a delicious and healthy start to the day. They also use up a few eggs when our chickens are providing more than we really know what to do with! Interestingly enough, while Dutch babies may have come from the German Pfannkuchen, the version most popular today originated in the early 1990's at a cafe in Seattle, WA. Manca's Cafe, owned by Victor Manca, is where the name Dutch Baby originated with one of his daughter's and the cafe claims they owned the trademark to the term as early as 1942! However the history goes, these have been a favorite of my family for over a decade and my kids are never sad when I announce we're having Dutch Babies for breakf...

Two Hour, No Knead Artisan Bread

When I think of a lovely little witch's cottage, I am immediately drawn to smells. Incense smoke and lemon cleaners. Honeysuckle in the summer and pine in the winter. And always, through it all, the scent of freshly baked bread. Rare is the day there's not a loaf of bread baking in my oven. It is a staple of of evening meal, the loaf sliced right as we fill our plates, the golden pad of butter sitting on the table. Some days it's a sourdough loaf I've worked on for since the night before. Sometimes a quick and simple Italian or French loaf. But more often than not, as my day is filled with other chores, tending animals and gardens and children and home, it's this bread. Perfectly crusty on the outside. To die for soft and springy on the inside. That rich yeasty taste you crave from a homemade bread. I firmly believe the difference between a house and a home is the bread that gets eaten there. This one makes the arena of homemade bread open to...

Plant Based "Chicken" & Broccoli Alfredo

This is a quick, delicious, and quite healthy dinner. Featuring plant based soy curls as the "chicken" and a cashew based Alfredo sauce, it serves great as a one pot dinner or paired with garlic bread and a garden salad.
