If you look on the back of popular microwave popcorn brands, I think you’ll find significantly more ingredients, some of which you might not even recognize. Some brands even contain a flavoring chemical called diacetyl, which the CDC has linked to lung disease. How to Avoid Chewy Popcorn Why can popcorn turn out chewy? If you keep the lid tightly sealed on the pot while the popcorn is popping, the excess steam might be absorbed by the popcorn, giving it more of a “chewy” texture....
Why You’ll Love It This idea came to me while working on a how to cook spaghetti squash tutorial. Spaghetti squash usually has to cook for at least 45 minutes to become tender, and that seems like a lot of work for only a “prep” portion of a recipe. You need pre-cooked spaghetti squash to make something like cheesy spaghetti squash casserole or Spaghetti Squash Chow Mein. But, what happens if you stuff the squash, and then bake it raw?...
I love working with sweet potato noodles, because they have a starchy texture similar to real pasta, but they’re gluten-free and also a good source of vitamins, like A and C. You can make sweet potato noodles quickly with a spiralizer (this is the one I use), or you can use a standard vegetable peeler to make fettuccine-style noodles, instead. You could even use shredded sweet potatoes as an alternative....
Tempeh is essentially a block of fermented soybeans that is quite firm and very different from the texture of meat. Although grinding the tempeh with a food processor helps break down the tempeh into smaller pieces, I still found the texture to be too firm. The challenge for me was to find a way to make the tempeh more tender. I suddenly remembered a pho tempeh recipe in Andrea Nguyen’s The Pho Cookbook, where she cooked sliced tempeh by simmering them with broth....

This fire roasted tomatoes and basil sauce is crazy simple, only 4 ingredients but you cannot imagine how good it is. But look at that rich color of the sauce, that’s all thanks to the fire roasted tomatoes, my latest and greatest cooking addition. They’re fresh tomatoes charred over an open fire with a smoky depth to them, so full of rich flavor.

Ingredients You’ll Need What is in vegan Caesar dressing? Cashews Garlic Lemon juice White miso (adds a Parmesan cheese flavor) Olive oil Salt & pepper I’ve kept the oil in this recipe to a minimum (you only need 2 tablespoons!) and you can probably leave it out all together if you want an oil-free recipe. It adds a nice richness to this salad dressing, but isn’t 100% necessary. I’ve made this dressing without the white miso before, too, but trust me when I say the miso is what adds the “wow” factor here....

A warm topping of sauteed mushrooms and red onions makes fresh spinach much more appealing at this time of the year, especially with a bit of crumbled goat cheese on top. The combination of warm and tender vegetables, raw greens, and creamy cheese is pretty irresistible! Spinach isn’t typically my favorite salad green, but a sturdier lettuce is required for salads topped with hot vegetables– you want the greens to wilt a bit, but not become totally soggy....
