Okay, let’s be real here. I am a sucker for really good flaky buttery biscuits! I don’t know why but there is just something about freshly baked, flaky goodness that make my heart sing. At least, next to breads and other buttery pastries. I love biscuits, in a sense, it is a soul…

Vegan Corn Chowder (Coconut Corn Soup)
I just want to be clear, I’m an island girl. Living on Guam, I experience summer all year long. Making soup recipes and holiday themed dishes, especially made for winters, are not natural to me; and it is something I have adapted since food blogging. Though, I do enjoy making holiday-themed recipes now….
Easy Vegan Tofu & Eggplant Stir Fry
Why, hello there November! How are you holding up? Has it been crazy, stressful, or heavy? If so, I understand, that is kind of the theme of 2020. A series of plot twists. I don’t know about you, but the first week of November had been quite draining and all I wanted to…

Let’s talk puto pao. Puto, pronounced as pooh-toh, is a Filipino version of steamed cakes.

So, I’m quite excited about presenting this new recipe. For two reasons, mainly. One, it is a super easy, authentic dish to recreate. Two, it is definitely a Chinese-cuisine favorite. It’s also one of my favorites (though, I feel like I say that a lot about any dish). I’m talking about Mapo Tofu….
Vegan Matcha Sesame Scone
Okay, let’s be honest here! When you think of scones, this is probably not the first thing that comes to your mind. One, it is shaped like a giant lady finger biscuit and, two, it has matcha topped with sesame seeds. While this is, in no way, the traditional fruity vanilla scone, it…

Vegan Winged Bean Tempura
I’ve actually had this idea to make winged bean tempura the moment I tried it by itself – unflavored. Which was about 2 years ago. If you’ve never had winged beans, it is crunchy and has this sweet, slightly peppery, and starchy flavor to it. From where I live, in the island of…
