Eggplant Dip and Pasta

 Made Zoya Biglary’s eggplant dip today which was delicious. For dinner I made a quick pasta sauce made with olive oil, crushed garlic, chili flakes, a chopped Roma tomato, a couple scoops of the eggplant dip, a tiny bit of pasta water and parsley. Tossed with hot @pastagarofalo spaghetti I got at Costco. It’s really good pasta. Bonus: homemade limeade!

Sheet pan Kefta

 I think this was a knockout recipe. Kefta kebab with sumac onions, cornichon and roasted tomatoes serve in a pita wrap. Garlic harissa tahini yogurt sauce. I riffed on @cheffinwithzach recipe for sheet pan kefta using @beyondmeat to make it vegan. I added vegan coconut yogurt to the harissa tahini sauce. This was SO DELICIOUS. #kefta #beyondmeat #vegan #kebab #sheetpanmeals

Onion tarts


 Saw this balsamic onion tart recipe and had to try it. I used vegan cheese and soymilk instead of egg wash.
