A creative reset in Greece sparked a return to the kitchen with fresh eyes and a craving for honest, low-waste comfort.
I begin this trifecta episode with a small-but-mighty star: thw roasted honeynut squash. Its edible skin and caramel-sweet flesh meet a lemony cannellini bean purée that’s creamy, protein-rich, and crazy simple to make. A quick maple, mirin, chili, and paprika glaze adds heat and shine without fuss, makes this dish so warm and inviting with time to savor since you're at home witout service folk fluttering around.
I'm completely forgot when I was recording this piece that I had a jalapeno I sauted small diced pieces of which added beautiful color, texture and another flavor profile that made this dish just perfect. Economical, health supportive, sustainable and zero food packaging waste.
The for breakfast I've been making and delighting in eating a crisp potato pancake with a jammy egg, and a bright ginger turmeric applesauce, plus a ThE best, no-fuss, no food packaging waste snack. You'll have to listen to the end to learn what this fabulous snack is.
Simple methods, minimal waste, and pantry smarts lead the way.
