This is a variation on the British “Bubble and Squeak,” a dish using potato and cabbage leftovers, fried with butter, bacon, or other fats. This is a healthier dish with tons of savory goodness, especially when topped with gravy.

Baked Tofu

No-oil method for turning bland tofu into flavorful slices of umami goodness. I love how this method takes all the jiggle out of tofu, too. The slices are great on sandwiches, or you can cut the slices up and use the pieces for bowls, stir-fries, fajitas, and the list goes on.

Cold Sesame Noodles, Without Oil

The secret to the kind of cold sesame noodles you eat in restaurants is Chinese roasted sesame paste. My take on this dish recalls the best sesame noodles from Chinese restaurants without the greasiness you can sometimes get.

Old-Fashioned (but Vegan) Scalloped Corn

Some dishes are just homey and good. Scalloped corn, like its close relation scalloped potatoes, is one of them. Blended cashews made into a white sauce provide an excellent substitute for a traditional dairy-based white sauce.
