Posted on July 29, 2015 by FoodArchMage

Sweet and Spicy Carrots and Chickpeas

Posted on June 24, 2015 by FoodArchMage

I’m particularly proud of a bit of magic I was able to do this past week. Over the weekend I had gone on a broomstick tour, which was definitely fun, but put me behind on household errands and chores. I … Continue reading →

Simpler Stuffed Peppers

Posted on May 20, 2015 by FoodArchMage

Where I live, good peppers are harder to come by than eye of newt! They’re never in good shape and always overpriced, so I’ve started taking advantage of the fact that no one around here knows what to do with … Continue reading →

Super Sauce Bowl

Posted on April 22, 2015 by FoodArchMage

Red Lentil and Veg Marinara

Posted on April 1, 2015 by FoodArchMage

There are lots of decent illusions out there for upgrading your pasta- using a spiralizer (which is so fun!) to make “noodles” out of veggies, non-traditional grains/flours, or even substituting spaghetti squash- but there hasn’t been a lot of advancement … Continue reading →

Un-chiladas!

Posted on March 25, 2015 by FoodArchMage

Un-chiladas! I’ve talked before about substitution, re-invention, and conjuration, and we’ve picked up a bit of alchemy along the way. Today’s recipe, though, is a different breed of magic. We’re working with fusion. I love black beans and salsa. Any … Continue reading →

Banana Milkshake Illusion

Posted on March 11, 2015 by FoodArchMage

Chickpea (not tuna) Salad

Posted on March 4, 2015 by FoodArchMage
