Sides & Salads
Smokey Lentil | Jicama | Hearts of Palm | Peanut Salad
This dish is similar to a ceviche but made vegan by replacing the fish with hearts of palm and lentils. I am serving this on a tostada but it can be served as a salad or in individual martini glasses with chips on the side as you would a ceviche. Pasilla chilis can be found at specialty stores and are stored at room temp in your pantry. They have an incredible earthy taste and are not spicy.

Sides & Salads
Charred Figs | Manchego | Honeyed Walnuts
Have you ever dipped a sharp cheese in honey? If you haven’t, you need to try it! The combination is so flavourful and fantastic. And to make it even better, try adding grilled figs, oozing with their summer juices and sweetness.

Pineapple Kimchi Fried Rice
The combination of the spicy and vinegary kimchi with the sweet and tangy pineapple is really outstanding. Make sure that when you are cutting the pineapple you use a cutting board with a moat so that you can capture any pineapple juices that run off.
