Tuna Couscousotto

We’re big on #meatlessmonday in my house, which is usually vegan (falafel! refried bean tacos! Smashed impossible burgers!) but going Pescatarian works too and I’m a tuna gal all the way.

This Couscousotto has all the risotto feels, inspired by Israeli-style tuna salad. Makes a great lunch or light dinner with a side of salad.

Tuna Couscousotto

1 can tuna packed in olive oil
8.8oz Ptitim or Israeli couscous
1 cup marinara sauce
1-2 tbsp harissa
2 cups vegetable stock
2 tbsp capers
1/2 tsp lemon zest
1 tsp lemon juice
Salt and pepper, to taste
Fresh parsley, for finishing (I didn’t have but I would use it if I did!)

Method:

Drain the olive oil from the tuna into a sauté pan. Add the couscous and sauté until toasted. Add marinara, harissa and stock, bring to a simmer. Add tuna and capers, lemon zest and juice, salt and pepper. Continue to simmer, uncovered, over low heat until creamy and the couscous is cooked through, 10-15 minutes.

Hawaij Apple Crisp with Halva Crumble


Fruit Crisp is never about a recipe for me. If I find I have some fruit that’s gotten a little too soft and wrinkly for my taste – it’s time for some baked fruit – with whatever toppings I’ve got in the pantry. Lucky for you (and luckier for me!!) I had tons of halva leftover from a gig and I wanted to use it up. Add some hawaij for coffee – a delicious chai-like Yemenite blend, and it just takes it over the top!

You can get my TK Hawaij for Coffee on Amazon! DO NOT use Hawaij for soup!!

Pulled Brisket Ramen

The secret to amazing First Cut Brisket is low and slow cooking with plenty of liquid so adding it to a soup is a great idea! It makes the most flavorful and delicious broth! If you don’t have an instant pot, simply sear the meat in a separate pan, transfer to your crockpot and cook on high for 6 hours.

2 eggs
1/2 cup flavored breadcrumbs
1 tsp granulated garlic powder
Salt & pepper, to taste
26oz marinara sauce
1 cup water
14oz can whole berry cranberry sauce
Juice of 2 lemons

Method:

Mix the beef, eggs, crumbs and spices. Add the marinara sauce to the pot. Add water to the jar and shake it up to get out all the sauce from the bar, add to the pot with cranberry sauce. Bring to a simmer while you roll out the meatballs. Add the lemon juice, whisk, then add meatballs. Allow the meatballs to simmer for a few minutes to set before gently mixing, then simmer for 1 hour. Serve with rice or pasta.
