how to sprout alfalfa seeds
Alfalfa sprouts are these cute, thin sprouts that are PACKED with nutritious elements:
shakshuka + lentils
Shakshuka is a traditional breakfast food from Israel served with a side of bread. Typically, the dish has two main stars: egg and tomato. Here at wai, we don't eat much bread, so we added in a filler in the dish itself: lentils!
red miso + hummus
So hummus already has tons of fiber, which is great for the digestive system, but THIS hummus contains another gut healthy ingredient: red miso! Miso is a fermented soy product that contains healthy amount of probiotics—great for the gut. Plus, it has a uniquely umami flavor that adds extra depth to our favorite dip, so you won’t even need to add salt.
red miso carrots + radishes
A little miso goes a long way, which is great for one-pan dishes like this.

5-minute enoki mushrooms
Enoki mushrooms are a great choice for those who aren't a big fan of mushrooms but would like to give it a try. The taste is very mild and clean, compared to other mushrooms with more earthy tastes. They cook really quickly in stir-frys, soups, and stand-alone dishes like this one, and can even be eaten raw in salads.
veggie tom kha
Tom Yum is one of my favorite soups because of is intricate flavor profile consisting of: pungent lemongrass, tangy galangal and lime, intoxicating kaffir lime leaves, and spicy red chilies. Adding the creamy coconut milk makes the soup a “Tom Kha” soup. Some people leave the coconut milk out for a more tangy and spicy taste, but I personally prefer for the milk to cut the acidity of this soup.
cilantro + lime hummus
I had half a sack of limes let over after making Tom Yum soup and guacamole the other day, so I decided to incorporate limes into my hummus instead of using lemons. The result was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!
