Soy Marinated Eggs

This recipe is the quintessential have-food-ready-to-eat-in-the-fridge recipe. No one has the time or energy to make every meal from scratch, so having something fast and tasty is key. The fastest way to eat these is just cold over some rice, but they are also good to add to any noodles, soups, or anything you want!…

Summer Soba Noodles

I can call it a summer dish because it’s the last day of August. But seriously, it’s hotter than heck down here in Alabama (oh by the way, I live in Alabama now). Eating some cold noodles overlooking Mobile Bay is my idea of a good time. Not only that, this literally takes 5 minutes…

Akela’s Perfect Ramen

Yep. You read it correctly. I have indeed perfected the ramen bowl. Is it authentic in any way? No. Is it delicious? Heck yeah. I’ve had this at least twice a week for dinner for the last month and a half. It’s really easy and really fast, and you end up with a satisfying bucket…

Kung Pao Tofu

An American classic. I’ve been obsessed with pan-frying tofu lately. It gets really crispy and chewy on the inside. Addictive. I have also discovered an intense love of gochujang, so I paired them together to create a meal that Panda Express would be proud of. I’ve eaten this multiple times this week… Gochujang is Korean…

Thai Coconut Veggie Soup

You may think that eating soup when the weather outside is literally a hundred degrees seems counterintuitive, but I promise once you try her it’ll make total sense. I actually made this recipe my freshman year of college, back when I was not eating ~sustainably~ and it turned out SO good!! I wanted to recreate…

Spring Rolls

Check out the Science section of Kale Eats Plants to learn more about the sustainability of seafood and shellfish! These spring rolls are super fun because they can truly be made with whatever you want! Load them up with…

Teriyaki Noodles

Did you guys really think I could go another week without throwing more Asian food up? These noodles were ridiculously delicious and they’re super easy to make. The best way to make these fun is by adding your own veggie varieties! The quality of this recipe depends on the quality of the teriyaki sauce, so…

Tofu Lettuce Cups

Tacos, but ~asian~. I love the lettuce cups from P.F. Chang’s more than anything so I wanted to try and make some myself cause I was really craving them this week. What better filling than tofu and shrooms? These are so yummy and actually super easy to keep in the fridge and assemble really fast….

Spicy Tofu Scramble w/ Veggies

My first recipe! Very excited to get started. This is probably one of my favorite things I have created so far and it’s pretty easy. This is definitely a savory meal that you can for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. I’m not a huge breakfast gal but I’ll eat this any morning. There are a couple…
