GourGanics Vegan Ginger Scented Curry Soup
This week has been a doozy for us here at GourGanics. We lost a good family friend and Sarah for one, is feeling run down (headache and runny nose) and generally sad and bummed out. We all get that way. But what to do? One of the best ways to chase the sniffles away and…
GourGanics HAPPY SUMMER Mahi Mahi Mango Fish Tacos
I love a good fish taco. You can go out for tacos right here in Fairfield, CT. If you are local, I suggest the Mahi Mahi fish tacos at Bodega. I tried my first fish taco in California about 16 years ago and I was hooked. Pun intended. I loved crispy crunch of a deep-fried…
GourGanics very-spicy-slightly-misogynistic eggplant tapanade
With apologies to Gloria Steinem and Betty Friedan! I made some homemade tapanade yesterday based on a recipe I found on the Gluten-free goddess Website. And I thought it was missing a little flavor but I loved the consistency and texture. So I tossed in a half of a jar of our local GourGanics USDA…

Gluten-free GourGanics Tofu Stroganoff
My mom used to make Beef Stroganoff with mushrooms, chunks of beef and sour cream, and serve it over white egg noodles. It was divine. I don’t eat much beef these days–and when I do it’s really high quality Grass Fed. So I once modified Mom’s recipe into chicken stroganoff using juicy chicken thighs. Believe it or not, tofu stroganoff makes…
GourGanics Spicy Shrimp Dip
This a fun, spicy, salty and crunchy take on a traditional shrimp cocktail. It can be either elegant or rustic, depending upon how you serve it– fancy china or pretty glass bowls? You can also choose dainty little crackers or monster-sized tortilla chips as the vehicle that drives all this spicy shrimp and salsa goodness…
simple salsa bagel spread
Mix 5 tablespoons of GourGanics mild or spicy and an 8 0z block of cream cheese or a vegan cheese product. You can spread it on your bagel or serve it on a nice cracker for a simple, satisfying appetizer.
