Red Bean Gumbo

Red bean gumbo brings the comfort of “Monday beans” but makes it special with the added complexity of roux and eggs.

Battle of Brown Rice

A friend recently gave me the tip to put a dish towel under the lid of the pot while the rice cooks. I gave it a shot and it worked.

Mejadra

Lentils, rice, and onions -- seemingly basic but tastes anything but that. Coriander, cumin, turmeric, all spice, and cinnamon come together creating the warmest and earthiness of flavors and the sweet richness of fried onions brings the perfect contrast.

Butter Beans and Shrimp

These legumes are creamy and an ultimate comfort food, yet it’s healthy. It’s a Cajun dish that flies under the radar and I want to change that.
