I often cook whatever I want, regardless of diet, but sometimes #plantbased meals are the best way to showcase fresh ingredients.

Two #vegan eggplant dishes: Thai basil tofu stir fry over rice & South Indian eggplant curry with homemade garlic naan.

Spending this #morning savoring some local #farmersmarket finds. Ficelle, heirloom tomatoes, pork pâté, olive tapenade (straight from Marin French Cheese Co., not the market), & a cup of osmanthus oolong. Wearing an appropriately-themed tomato tee today.

#Cooking Celebrity Recipes, Part 4: Taylor Swift's spaghetti and meatballs. The meatballs were juicy in part due to their large, 2-inch diameter, and offered a slightly different spin on this classic dish with a bit of nutmeg in the mixture.
