Canton noodles are dried Chinese noodles that are great to keep in the pantry for when you need to throw a meal together quickly – they don’t even require boiling separately. And you can use up whatever vegetables you have (I make some suggestions below). Guessipe Olive oil for sautéing 3 boneless skinless chicken thighs,…

Panang Curry
Panang curry is my favorite Thai curry. Panang curry paste has peanuts blended into it so that it has a nuttiness that mellows the spiciness a little. Combined with some coconut milk and sugar, it is a salty sweet treat that’s perfect over a bowl of rice. You can put whatever meats and vegetables you…

Pasta Salad
This pasta salad is the ultimate Guessipe, because you can mix and match ingredients and dressing in any way you like. I love it for using up leftovers to quickly and conveniently toss together a tasty dish that works as a side or main dish depending on how hearty you want to make it. Guessipe…
Pancake Mix Garlic Onion Cheese Bread
Yes, I’m posting this on April Fool’s Day… but no, this is not a joke. Thanks to COVID-19 we’re all living in this new shelter-in-place world, and apparently everyone has decided to get into bread-baking. As a result that I never would have predicted for a global pandemic, all the grocery stores appear to be…

Creamy Cheesy Cabbage
When I first met my boyfriend, I would joke that he’s the only vegetarian in the world who doesn’t like vegetables. I have however been steadily converting him to Team Vegetable, and this Creamy Cheesy Cabbage has definitely been part of the conversion. He’ll keep going back for more, even when there are other options…
Japanese Curry
When I was in Japan I had some fantastic curry, and was surprised to learn that many people use packaged Japanese curry roux (Golden, Vermont, and Java are a few popular brands), which they dress up with other ingredients to give the curry a rich, deep flavor. It’s so good! Usually Japanese curry has potatoes…
Late-Summer Salad
Figs come into season in late summer, and if you’re lucky enough to have a fig hookup (AKA a friend with a fig tree) like me, then this is a refreshing and stunningly inviting salad that’s perfect for a hot summer day. Guessipe 1 head red lettuce, washed and hand-torn 1 head spinach, washed and…
Kimchi Fried Rice
I’m always tempted to get Kimchi Fried Rice when I see it on a menu, but then I remind myself how easy it is to make at home. It’s great for using up leftover rice, and all of the other ingredients are things I pretty much always have on hand. So it’s a perfect weeknight…
Turkey Pot Pie
Turkey is one of my least favorite meats, but what’s one way to make it better? Combine it with one of my favorite foods… pie! While I don’t look forward to the Thanksgiving turkey meal, I do look forward to turning that leftover turkey into a creamy savory turkey pot pie. If you want to…
