Mains
Thai Chili Oil Noodles with Sesame and Garlic
This recipe is so easy, it is a staple in my house. I use fresh, wide flat-rice noodles, sometimes called Chow Fun noodles, or the widest Thai rice noodles. This dish comes together super fast and you want to serve it immediately. It is best to have everything ready for the fast cook. See the Prep-Ahead Tip at the bottom of the recipe.

Condiments and Dressings
Basic Tahini Sauce
Tahini is a perfect condiment. Use it as a drizzle on cooked protein, veggies or salads. Make a thicker sauce and use it as you would hummus, as a dip for veggies or pita. Spread it on a plate and garnish with a lentil salad, cherry tomato salad or a seasoned chopped meat dish.

Condiments and Dressings
Tahini “Peanut” Sauce
This sauce is a staple for any Thai meal. It is amazing used as a dip for satays or fritters, but also fabulous along side the Pad Thai. What I love about it, is that it is nut free!

Chili Spiked Sweet Potato and Scallion Rösti
A rösti is like a giant latka but Swedish. This rösti is baked, making it a little healthier then its fried cousin. Serve this as a simple side dish any night or top it with a sharply dressed arugula salad or a poached egg for a light meal. It is sweet and savory and all delicious. Cut it into wedges to serve.

Sweet Potato Ricotta G’nudi with Kale and Sage Brown Butter
Making g’nudi is super easy and a great thing to do with your kids. I’m using sweet potato here because it is really healthy and rich in vitamins and minerals. A simple toss in sage brown butter with a sprinkle of pepper and parmesan is all you need and probably all your kids want!

Sweet Potato Crusted Quiche with Greens and Goat Cheese
This beautifully simple quiche is perfect served warm or at room temperature for a light dinner or lunch. It is naturally gluten free and the sweet potato crust pairs beautifully with the tartness of the goat cheese. Adding yogurt to the eggs makes the batter very smooth and creamy.
