This was a super simple meal to throw together that packs big flavor. The coconut curry is rich and creamy. The Mae Ploy curry paste is packed with flavor (although it does contain shrimp paste) that pairs great with just a hint of sweet. It was a super satisfying dish and I’m excited to haveRead more
Well it has been a hot minute since my last post… Big news is that we had a baby in July 2022, which has been an absolute joy, and has also taken up most of my energy. Baby has now become a toddler (that happened so fast!), and I’m experiencing all the challenges of feedingRead more
This Lemon Herb Tofu has become a fan favorite at Thanksgiving.
