Though I’ve eaten pita bread for as long as I can remember, I primarily use it as a socially acceptable method to shove hummus (like this Edamame Hummus) into my mouth at dangerous speeds. However, one evening, when I was in a horrific rush to meet up with friends, I entered cooking emergency mode. With no sandwich bread (and no time to make Oatmeal Bread) in sight, I grabbed a whole wheat pita that was hanging out in the fridge, topped it with leftover roasted vegetables and cheese from our fridge, then shoved the entire thing into my toaster oven while I finished finding my right shoe....

How do I explain this oriental ramen noodle salad to those of you who didn’t grow up in the Midwest? If you’ve never eaten crunchy ramen salad, my hunch is that you might be skeptical of crumbling an uncooked ramen noodle packet (yes, I do mean the same ramen noodle packet that helped you survive college) over a bowl of bagged cabbage coleslaw. You might not believe me when I tell you that canned mandarin oranges are mandatory....

Let’s talk garlic.

It’s ready in 30 minutes (fewer if you chop your vegetables in advance), and its flavor bests any noodles you’ll eat out of a takeout carton. If your experiences with Asian food growing up were anything like mine (mall food courts and the takeout section of our Kansas grocery store), to you stir fry noodles might mean noodles cooked in oil (usually a lot of oil), with a sugary sauce and very few vegetables....
