Eastern Vegetable Noodle Soup

Miso and garlic-infused vegetable broth makes a tasty base for instant ramen noodles and fresh vegetables. No need for the sodium-heavy flavor packets. Tofu adds protein and texture and soaks up the flavor of the broth.

Buddha’s Delight

A vegetarian dish enjoyed by Buddhist monks, lo han jai (or Buddha’s Delight) is traditionally served on the first day of the Chinese New Year. We like to serve it alongside a lo mein salad, followed by tea and fortune cookies!

Veggie Chow Mein

Chow mein can be made with crunchy noodles or soft ones (as this recipe uses). Liquid aminos are an healthy alternative to soy sauce, usually available at natural food stores.

No Nuts Sesame Noodles

Just about everyone loves sesame noodles and we’re no exception. But we like to skip the peanut butter and add some extra crunchy veggies.

Rice Pudding with Berries

The Chinese often begin their day with a congee, or rice porridge. This breakfast rice, sweetened up with cinnamon and berries, is a great way to use up leftover rice.
