Okay so thiiiiis is the last of the Asiany foods for a while. I think. I’m not even going to glance at my planner to double check either. Crap. Now that I said that I HAVE to look at it. I’m nervous. Why am I nervous. That’s silly. Just a quick look-see won’t hurt anything, […]

Asian Steak Salad with Bok Choy
I swear this is the last of the Asiany foods for a while. And ohhhh my is it a doozer. I’ve rather enjoyed our little trip together! We’ve canoed through rivers of fish sauce. We’ve snorkeled in soy. We’ve climbed the ropes of vermicelli noodles. And today we shall bok the choy. Wait! I […]
Vietnamese Noodle Salad with Chicken
I just learned something right this second and I need to come clean about my wrong doings. My world is shattered. My heart, torn. My brain is fuzzy. My soul, worn. Just get to it? Okay. So you know how these little Vietnamese noodle salads are called “bun”? Yeah. Well I was locked. and. loaded. […]
Beef Stir-Fry Cabbage Cups
Rock-a-bye-baby. So I’m trying to get more into Asiany foods. Like, more more. So much more in fact, yesterday I drove all around the city for HOUUUURS (okay, down the street for 15 minutes) to find this SPECIFIC kind of fish sauce, or else I’d combust into flames, thus causing my ashes to blow away […]
Mini Cheeseburgers and Soba Noodle Lunch Boxes
You want to cradle them, don’t you? I’ll tell you what, my mouth cradled about 50 of them at one time like a bowling alley does with its pins. And you should know, I plan on making SENSE in my next life. Today it’s all about the back to schools. Not that mini cheeseburgers have […]
Grilled Asian Steak Salad
You know how David Spade says the word “salon” in the old SNL skit, with the accent on the first syllable? Like, SAlon? That’s the way I like to say salad. SAlad. But you have to say it like SAlod and change the way the second syllable sounds, sort of hollowing it out a little, […]
Somen Noodles with Scallops and Vegetables
Saaaaaaaaaaa-lurp. Okay. I know you’re probably looking at those little scallops on top of those noodles and thinking you’ve seen this before somewhere, tucked neatly in a memory folder stored in that one dusty corner of your cerebrum. And you have! I kindasortamaybe made this back in April with soba noodles. But! I swapped out […]
4th of July Round-Up Extravaganza of the Year and Century
AMERICUUUUH. This round-up is actually extremely tiny and hilarious. And you mostly likely have your menu planned for today like a well-behaved, organized American citizen, but just in case you needed two more side options, four main entrée alternatives like burgers and fish, one drink option and seriously only one dessert option, Y’ALL I AM […]
Spicy Beef and Basil with Vermicelli Noodles
Oh hey guess what! It’s only 1,462 degrees here in Kansas City. And my hair has never looked more stunning. I used to be SUCH a summer-lovin’ gal, back in my ripe years. I lived in New Mexico, rode my faded red Schwinn at like TWO O’CLOCK in the stale, breeze-less July afternoons, with no […]
Cheesy Black Quinoa Bites and Garlic Chicken Spring Rolls
I know, I know. It’s Saturday. What gives? I just feel like it’s taken me all flippin’ week to get my groove back, STELLA. And I just found out that Click and Clack from Car Talk are retiring and I just don’t rightly know how to handle this unexpected hurdle in life. Don’t they understand […]
