Grilled Eggplant "Unagi"-don and Yamitsuki

Image
 I stumbled upon this recipe on Instagram . It was super easy and delicious. I didn't make the eggs to go with it. Instead, I accompanied the dish with this yamitsuki recipe from the NY Times Cooking . This combo will definitely be in our rotation.

Vegan Moroccan Stew

 I've been attending the Kaiser Permanente's Culinary Medicine class once a month. In September, they shared this Moroccan Stew recipe . I made it with sweet potatoes, carrots, and chickpeas. It was definitely better the next day, after letting the flavors marinate. I was too lazy to make the saffron-infused quinoa, but it sounds very delicious. The stew was great with the plain quinoa. I'll be sure to make time to make the saffron-infused quinoa next time I make this dish.

Zucchini Mapo Tofu

This is one of my husband's current favorite dishes to cook. He uses Gemini to generate the recipe, but it's basically the same as  this one .

Vegetarian Bean Chili

 This recipe from America's Test Kitchen is a staple in our house. We adapted it for the pressure cooker, and we make it about once a month since it's super easy, freezer-friendly, and so good. Since I'm watching my blood sugar, I eat it with quinoa. My husband and kids love it over hot white rice.

Sweet Potato Hash with Tofu

 I love this recipe from NYT Cooking . It's super easy and tasty. This time, I added a fried egg and some spinach. I have also made it with canned black beans instead of tofu.

Thai Curry Noodle Soup with Shredded Tofu

Image
This was a fairly easy recipe , but I found the shredded tofu to be too salty with the recommended sauce. Next time, I would decrease the amount of soy sauce and maybe even get rid of the marinade altogether. Instead, I would cube the tofu and cook it with the curry sauce. I also substituted the broccoli in the video with bok choy.
