don’t worry, a new crispy rice salad is in the p

don’t worry, a new crispy rice salad is in the pipeline 🫢 but until then, here’s my nyc photo dump! 🍎 nyc will always have a special place in my heart, from being a student at nyu, living in the city on 9/11, creating memories, falling in—and out—of love, and now just visiting any chance i get. life is short. no matter how “silly” it may seem to others, you don’t need a reason to book the trip and do the things that fill your cup. the end. #nyc

@kalejunkie FROZEN APPLE CIDER MARGARITAS 🍎 My

@kalejunkie FROZEN APPLE CIDER MARGARITAS 🍎 My favorite cocktail will always and forever be a good margarita, and you guysssssss, this frozen apple cider marg is the perfect drink to transition from summer to fall. They are good. Almost too good. Which means you need to make this asap—and for all my non-alcohol girlies, you can sub the tequila for a non-alcoholic tequila or just leave it out together. This drink is so flavorful either way, kids will love it too (without the alc of course!!). ⁣
⁣
Makes 2 drinks⁣
1 1/2 cups apple cider (frozen into ice cubes)⁣
1 tsp cinnamon⁣
1 tb honey⁣
3 oz tequila of choice (I loveeeee @lalospirits, always + forever)⁣
1 oz cointreau or triple sec⁣
1 lemon, juiced⁣
Garnish: apple slices & thyme, salt rim if desired⁣
⁣
Pour apple cider into an ice cube tray and freeze overnight. When ready to make your drinks, add the cubes to a blender, along with the rest of the ingredients. Blend until you have a beautiful blended drink. Divide between two glasses and garnish with apple slices and a sprig of thyme. Enjoy immediately.⁣

@kalejunkie SAUCY BEEF & BROCCOLI NOODLES! I am in

@kalejunkie SAUCY BEEF & BROCCOLI NOODLES! I am in New York right now and it feels like a hot summer day, BUT back at home in the Bay Area, it’s turning into fall and I am craving all the better-for-you comfort foods as the weather starts to change. For me, that usually means NOODLES—lots of noodles! This dish is a variation on my beef & broccoli recipe that you guys love, but with more sauce and lots of gluten-free rice noodles to soak it all up. In true KJ form, we prioritize protein for satiety and we have lots of broccoli for good measure. Veggies are important too:)⁣
⁣
Recipe serves 4-6⁣
12 oz gluten-free lo mein noodles (I used rice lo mein noodles)⁣
1 tb sesame oil⁣
1 1/2 lbs flank steak (or sirloin), sliced on the grain/cubed⁣
⁣
Sauce—⁣
3/4 cup coconut aminos (or low sodium soy sauce)⁣
1/4 cup hoisin sauce (I used gluten free hoisin)⁣
1/4 cup honey or maple syrup⁣
1/4 cup rice vinegar⁣
1 tsp ground ginger⁣
2 tb corn starch (or tapioca flour or arrowroot flour)⁣
⁣
Stir Fry—⁣
1 small yellow onion, diced small (1/2 cup)⁣
3 cloves garlic, mashed⁣
1 tsp ground ginger⁣
1 1/2 lbs broccoli, cut into tiny florets (this was 3 large broccoli crowns)⁣
⁣
First, cook noodles according to package instructions and set aside. Slice steak into thin strips or cubes and set aside. Next, prepare the sauce. In a bowl or large glass, whisk together all of the sauce ingredients and set aside. Dice the onion, mash the garlic, and cut broccoli into small florets. Add sesame oil to a large skillet or wok. Once hot, add the steak and saute until almost cooked through. Remove from the pan. Keep the juice from the steak in the pan. Add the onion, garlic, ginger and broccoli. Saute for about 3-4 minutes until the broccoli begins to soften, then pour in 3/4 of the sauce, reserving the rest for later. Add the beef back in and coat everything well with the sauce. Finally, add in the cooked noodles and toss again. Add remaining sauce at this time or when you serve. Garnish with sesame seeds and enjoy!⁣

1 tsp vanilla extract⁣
⁣
Preheat oven to 350F. Line an 8x8 baking dish with parchment paper and set aside. In a small bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients (eggs, acv, maple syrup, and oil). In a large bowl, mix together the dry ingredients. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and mix together. Transfer batter to the baking dish. Next, prepare the streusel topping.
