Maple Garlic Lion’s Mane Skrimpz

This recipe started my entire journey with Lion's Mane Mushroom, which has since become a staple ingredient in my kitchen. If you like, you can swap wheat flour for spelt flour. I love the additional nutty, sweet flavor that the spelt flour gives the skrimpz. It also has a great texture after it is fried. If you are interested in trying any of my Lion's Mane recipes, but you aren't sure where to find it, check out your local farmer's markets or specialty grocery stores. You can also grow Lion's Mane Mushroom at home. I recommend using North Spore for grow kits and tips for beginner growers. Enjoy!

Crispy Country-Fried Lion's Mane Steak

A while back I was asked to be part of the Golden Recipe program on Pinterest TV. The objective was to make a recipe that reminded me of my past. For the Golden Recipe, I chose to make a vegan version of country-fried steak. That recipe was pretty good, but this recipe takes it to a whole other level. I figured out the perfect crunchy batter and the Lion's Mane steak makes for a wonderful texture and chew. Hope you enjoy!

Red Curry Pasta w/ Jerk Jackfruit

One of my favorite quick dinner recipes is Rasta Pasta. This is a play on Rasta Pasta, made with red curry. It is such a great remix recipe and it reheats well, if you want to meal prep it for the week ahead.

Cajun Mushroom Alfredo

If you love creamy pasta with mad flavor, this recipe is for you.

The Perfect Chana Masala

When I originally transitioned to a plant-based diet, I was lost on what to eat. Luckily, I found an Indian restaurant that served a delicious plant-based chana masala. It kept me feeling satisfied and full. So, I leaned on this meal often and it became one of the first meals I learned to cook at home. I have made countless variations of this recipe over the years, but this is a solid version to lean on.

Spicy Tamarind Lion's Mane Skrimpz

I have had so much fun creating new flavor combinations for my Lion's Mane Skrimpz! Once you make the skrimpz, you can toss them or dip them in so many different sauces. This one is a sweet & savory option that pairs perfectly with nutty black rice. Hope you enjoy!

Curry Coconut Shiitake Meatball Sandwich

It is harvesting time and we are back with another dope recipe using mushrooms I grew at home with a North Spore Fruiting Block Kit and Boom Room. This was a nice flush with close to 1.3 pounds of shiitake mushrooms. It takes about 1-2 months to get the shiitake bag ready to start fruiting, but North Spore makes it easier and faster to grow at home. It took about 10-11 days to grow once I took the fruiting block out of its bag. Because it grows outside of the bag, it’s best to grow in a tent or fruiting chamber to prevent contamination. I chose shiitake mushrooms for this recipe because shiitake is very meaty and has a delicious umami flavor. This recipe takes some work, but at the end of the day, it's incredible to go from harvest to table right at home.
