Cilantro Chickpea Tabbouleh with Labneh
A twist on the traditional Mediterranean side dish where cilantro substitues for parsley and a lime-honey vinaigrette substitutes for lemon. Cumin chickpeas and labneh add needed protein to turn this side into a stand-alone dish.

Choose-Your-Own-Adventure Thai Coconut Curry
This recipe delivers a quick and easy Thai coconut curry foundation broth that you can style as you like. I recommend a delicate piece of cod with carrots or chickpeas and sweet potatoes, but there is no reason you couldn't use chicken, salmon, tofu or tempeh in this dish. Mix up the vegetables to your liking.

I love life. So much to explore and experience. My world is a circular orbit that revolves around my latest recipe inspirations, books yet to be read and dreams of where I'll travel next. If it's Friday night, I'm probably out in the Dallas arts district enjoying the theatre or the ballet. On weeknights, I'm most likely in my kitchen whipping up a meal I've been thinking about all day. Once Upon a Frittata is a collection of the things I love most in life, and I look forward to sharing the with you.
