Soba Noodle Lunch Boxes
I'm sorry, but didn't kids just get OUT OF SCHOOL? I'm seeing all these back-to-school commercials about #2 pencils and notebooks and crayons and scissors and I can like, SMELL the supplies. In a good way. A fresh box of crayons? Mmmm. And the mix of lead and wood in pencils? Seriously yum. Oh! And Elmer's glue! Get this, one time in college I smeared glue all over my face at a party, let it dry and then walked up to a cute boy and smiled rea... Read More ›

Garlic Chicken Spring Rolls
You know how they say to eat a rainbow? Well not like, A rainbow, but the colors of a rainbow? On your plate? As in, your food? This is like that! But it's mostly the green part of a rainbow. And the orange part. And the clear part. Rainbows aren't clear, though. So this is like eating a glass house! But it's not glass. So it doesn't hurt to eat.

Asian Turkey Lettuce Cups
Don't you want to just cuddle these adorable little lettuce cuppies? I remember the first time I experienced a lettuce cup or wrap of some sort. I had just moved from Arkansas to Kansas City, was freshly engaged and I felt like a young spring chicken. One afternoon we were exploring the city, and we got hungry, of course. We sat down at this cool little Asian joint in one of the hipster pockets of the city, and with one swift motion, Aaron... Read More ›

Steak Udon Noodles
The idea to make this noodle dish really just came out of nowhere, but I am glad it popped into my head because it was one of the best things I have eaten in months. Grilled skirt steak and bok choy with udon noodles is a great weeknight summertime dinner. It's easy to pull together, and all you have to do is light the grill and boil some water. In fact, most Asian markets sell perfectly good pre-cooked udon, so if you want to skip the boiling w... Read More ›

Chicken Satay with Asian Dipping Sauce
The first time I had chicken satay, I was about 14 years old and in Cape May, New Jersey, with my friend’s family. Her aunt was getting married, and we were hosting a bridal shower at the rental house we were staying in. My friend’s mom had me make the dipping sauce for the satay. I thought the combination of peanut butter and soy sauce would never, ever work. Frankly it seemed bizarre. But once all was said and done, I discovered that... Read More ›
