  • Quinoa Crunch Salad with Peanut Dressing

    Quinoa Crunch Salad with Peanut Dressing

    I absolutely adore crunchy salads! Take, for example, the Thai Noodle Salad, which packs such a flavorful punch that it occasionally pops up in my dreams. Then there’s the Crunchy Shrimp Salad, essentially a justification for indulging in those crispy homemade wonton strips. And let’s not forget about the Cashew Crunch Salad, a cold, sweet-and-savory delight that got me through those summer pregnancy days, featuring nostalgic chowmein noodles and all.

    This dish is a nutritional powerhouse thanks to the inclusion of quinoa and black beans, but it doesn’t stop there—it’s bursting with flavor. Creamy peppers confit, heaps of succulent sweet corn, and a homemade dressing that perfectly captures the essence of elote (Mexican street corn) with its tangy lime, savory cotija cheese, and spicy chili powder. And a shoutout to ALDI for providing everything needed to make this culinary dream a reality, including the freshest summertime produce. Mexican street corn, whether served on the cob (elote) or as kernels in a cup (esquites), is a beloved snack in Mexico, featuring grilled corn slathered in mayo, lime juice, cotija cheese, and chili powder—a delightful treat enjoyed on the go.

  • Chipotle Tahini Bowls

    Chipotle Tahini Bowls

    Healthy and versatile bowls that come together under a generous drizzle of addictingly creamy vegan chipotle tahini sauce.

    Perfectly crisped roasted sweet potatoes, finely chopped kale with an irresistible texture, creamy avocado, hearty quinoa, and a flawlessly soft-boiled egg cooked to perfection in just six minutes. Already an enticing combination, wouldn’t you agree? But hold onto your taste buds, because here’s the real star of the show: Chipotle Tahini. Imagine a velvety, addictive blend of creaminess, sweetness, and just the right amount of spice that you’ll want to drizzle on everything. That’s the true hero of these bowls—Chipotle Tahini Bowls, to be exact.

    Here are the steps:

    1. Blend all the sauce ingredients in a food processor until they form a smooth mixture. Adjust seasoning according to your taste preferences.
    2. Cook or prepare your bowl ingredients. I personally enjoy a combination of kale, roasted sweet potato, avocado, quinoa, and soft-boiled egg. However, you can also include options like chicken, roasted broccoli, and more.
    3. Generously coat everything in the prepared sauce. It adds incredible flavor to the dish.
