Persian (Iranian) Jeweled Basmati Rice Pilaf
I hope you’re all in the mood for a little excursion with your tastebuds! Hey, it’s the no-passport-required way to travel, don’t you love that? So this is me updating an old recipe from quite a few years ago. I remember the first time making this a friend of mine offered to share some of his awesome cooking with me and my family. He said he was going to bring over some Persian food (with extra saffron) for dinner to go with whatever sides I wanted to make. I’ve always been thrilled with those kinds of arrangements.

Thai Cashew Stir-Fry & Lemongrass Infused Brown Rice
I think I might be obsessed with Thai food you guys…….. Like, if I just found out I only had a few days to live I’d probably make eating some Thai one of my top priorities. Have you ever thought about that, by the way? What would you eat if nothing else mattered and it was all about what you actually love to eat. If you could take away every other factor (nutrition, expense, calories, availability, etc…….), if none of those things existed what would you eat just because you genuinely love the taste?
