Armenian Pizzas (Lahmahjoon)
This is a dish my Uncle is famous for, but he has never written the recipe down. Through years of trial and error, I think I have pretty much got it as close as I can! Don't be too exact with your spices though, just flavor as you go to your own tastes--personally, I never measure mine out. These pizzas are great to put in the fridge overnight and grab as a quick lunch the next day with a dollop of plain yogurt on top!
Caramel-Apple Tofu and Noodle Stir-Fry
It's a disservice to only drizzle in rich, buttery caramel sauce during the dessert course. The ice cream topping teams up with soy sauce, peanut butter, and chili paste in this stir-fried main.
