Pad Thai Ah, Pad Thai! One of my favorite dishes, if not my favorite dish to order at a Thai restaurant. I’ve managed to find some restaurants that sell this delicious and satisfying dish, but nothing can quite compare to homemade.

One particular supplement most doctors recommend adding is DHA (Docosahexaenoic Acid) omega-3 to your routine, if you haven’t already. DHA is a polyunsaturated omega-3 fatty acid and is a major structural fat found in the brain, eyes, and heart. Research has shown that nearly everyone can benefit from dietary intake of DHA, from infants to elderly, as it’s critical for proper brain and eye function. Fish oil is one of the most common sources of DHA, but as it turns out, fish don’t actually produce their own DHA– they get it from eating algae!...

Now that the weather is getting colder, I have been craving warm savory porridges for breakfast. I often make porridge with jasmine rice because that’s what I grew up with (see my basic congee recipe made with dried seafood and vegan congee recipe made with shiitake mushrooms). Recently, I’ve been making porridge with other types of grains and started to fall in love with millet porridge. Millet is a great for making porridge because it breaks down when you cook it for long enough....

Chili oil is a condiment made with some type of vegetable oil (most often olive oil, soy bean oil, or sesame oil) infused with some sort of spicy chili peppers.

Our recipe is inspired by Italian Chili Oil that is often found in pizzerias and restaurants around the country to add on to pizza, grilled vegetables, and other vegetable side dishes....

We’re going back to basics today! The complexity of the flavor you get from roasted garlic may make it seem like a hassle to make, but I think you’ll be very surprised with how easy it is. Even the most novice cooking beginners will have no problem throwing this recipe together. The process of roasting your garlic takes the unpleasant intensity from garlic in its raw form to create a flavor more subtle in bite but so much more powerful in smooth depth and richness....

I love dishes like this. Though this is more of a side dish, perfect complement to some nice grilled chicken. And we’ve had gorgeous weather here, perfect for grilling. Until today, woke up to about 3 inches of snow. But not to worry. By the afternoon it was almost all melted and sunny again. What a great winter it has been as far as weather here in Calgary.

As a Californian, I am very proud of the abundance and variety of fresh local food. Having lived outside of California for several years, I learned not to take this for granted. Whenever I buy food locally, I feel comfort in knowing where my food comes from and that I am supporting my community. What I love about Nugget Markets is that they go above and beyond to feature locally produced food in their stores....

There’s just something comforting about pasta, right? I sometimes feel deprived that I don’t eat all the pasta I want or my body craves because hubs is not a fan. Like what’s wrong with him? He says he likes pasta once a year! Good thing is I don’t always make only what he likes. Sometimes I want a nice big bowl of pasta with some freshly grated Parmesan cheese and a good glass of red wine....

Lately, I have been seeing many articles in food magazines highlighting shishito peppers, but I have never tried them before. What are these things? When I finally found some at the farmers market, I got quite excited. I asked the kind vendor at Country Rhodes Family Farm for some cooking tips on the peppers, and guess what? She gave me a handful to try for free! Major score. Of course, I had to write a post that featured these beauties....

The heartiness of lean ground beef, infused with the boldness of chorizo and the warmth of cumin, finds a perfect home within the tender zucchini halves. Topped with a melty blend of cheddar and feta, and finished with a pop of fresh tomato, every bite is a testament to comfort food done right – easy, satisfying, and oh-so-delicious....
