Curried Cashew Salad

Curried cashew chicken salad

Oh boy. Some days, I just need food that satisfies ALL of my taste buds. Today was one of those days. With a handful of cashews, 8 pounds of apples, and some spinach and carrots that needed to be eaten, it sounded like the perfect time to make a curried cashew salad. This yummy dish can be made with chicken, tofu or tempeh.

“Quick” Chile Walnut Hash (a la chiles en nogada)

This dish is de-lish. The recipe is inspired by traditional Mexican stuffed chiles with walnut sauce. I say inspired, because I offer up a version that is easier to prepare and dairy-free, but maintains the essence of the traditional preparation.

GF/DF Tomatillo Enchiladas

I found a bottle of what looked like home-canned garlic tomatillo salsa at the store a couple of weeks ago. It was in a quart-sized Mason jar with a raffia bow and a simple hang-tag for a label. I knew what I’d use it for when I bought it; I’ve just been waiting for the craving. And tonight, it came. Perfect timing, too, as our yellow pear and Cherokee purple heirloom tomatoes are finally coming in (very late in the year) and I had my favorite brand of tortillas in the fridge.
