SPINACH AND FETA TURKEY MEATBALLS

I've been a massive fan of meatballs these days. This is the thing I didn't think I'd ever write about. It's true. Meatballs are simple, delicious, and filling. And you can prepare them in many ways, including spaghetti and red sauce. This recipe for Spinach and Feta Turkey Meatballs is sauteed with Spinach, which helps add more greens and crumbled feta pieces to add extra flavor and a smoky kick. CAN I MAKE THESE MEATBALLS WITHOUT BREADCRUMBS? The quick response is yes. However, they won't have identical textures. The egg and breadcrumbs make the meatballs soft and moist, as well as glue to hold these...

HOISIN TOFU LETTUCE CUPS

Pan-frying chopped tofu in a pan and coating it with delicious sauce is my latest favorite method of cooking tofu. It's straightforward, and as I think about sauce options, they are countless! Today, I created these Hoisin Tofu Lettuce Cups with only a handful of ingredients I already had in my pantry.

Rice cookers are an efficient and cost-effective method to cook food for people living in tiny spaces or who can't access traditional kitchens. I will create a few recipes specifically for rice cookers, beginning with this easy Teriyaki Shrimp and rice. This simple recipe is similar to the shrimp Fried Rice you find at your local takeaway joint; however, it's steamed, not cooked, which makes it far lower in calories. The concise list of ingredients implies that you don't need to have many elements in your pantry, and most of them can be stored indefinitely within your freezer or pantry. CAN I MAKE...

ROASTED VEGETABLE COUSCOUS

I'm still trying to get the maximum advantage of the fresh summer vegetables until they're all gone. It's a great recipe. Roasted Vegetable Couscous is the ideal side dish to enjoy during the transitional season when markets are still brimming with gorgeous fresh produce. Yet, it's not hot enough that you're hesitant to fire up the oven. This easy side dish is simple to cook yet boasts rich and enticing flavor. If the temperature remains not hot enough to cook your veggies using the oven, then you could cook this recipe just as quickly by grilling them outside on a grill. In either case, you'll...
