This soup….this soup is my favorite lentil soup. I almost can’t come up with the words to describe how much I love this soup. I’ve made it several times in the past few weeks because it is simply that good. And it’s simple to make. Basically, it’s one of those toss everything into the pot […]
Citrus Salad with Lemon Mint and Honey
It’s Sunday night and it’s late. My sweet little children have just fallen asleep. Everyone has been in some stage of sickness with a nasty flu. My husband has had it the worst. (And we all know what is said about men when they are sick. So.) Of course, I have to mention the tragic […]
Vegan Banana Squash Coconut Curry
It has been snowing for about 24 hours and it’s been lovely. We haven’t had real snow for weeks. As much as I’ll dread slick roads tomorrow morning, tonight I am enjoying being inside looking at the Christmas tree twinkling in the background as I edit photos and dream about the unhealthy Holiday treats I’m […]
Cider-Mustard Glazed Roasted Root Vegetables
We’ve entered my favorite time of year. Halloween is over. Let the Thanksgiving baking, roasting, cooking begin! Over the next few weeks I’ll be sharing some great recipes to help get you in the mood for the holiday season. I confess I’m boring. I really love roasted veggies. So much, in fact, that I hardly […]
Hearty Kale, Butternut, Barley Soup
My husband and I have come to an agreement on healthy eating. Well, that’s not entirely true. He and I agree we need to get back to our super healthy eating habits, but we haven’t agreed on how to do it. I say juicing is key. He can barely gag it down. I say vegan. […]
Gluten-Free Ratatouille Pasta
You’ve probably seen the movie, but have you ever made ratatouille? The first time I made it, I had just started my 10 day juice fast and it was very difficult not to eat some. My girls even loved the little cubes of eggplant, zucchini and bell peppers with the fresh tomatoes and loads […]
Nectarine, Fennel, Arugula Salad with Ricotta Salata, Red Onion and Honey Wine Vinaigrette
Every once in awhile you meet a salad and you think, “This is my very favorite.” Then you come across another salad and the same thing happens. Well, friends, this salad is the salad that ended that for me. This is my very, very favorite salad. I’m ready to say my vows and pledge my […]
Quinoa Buckwheat Salad with Cucumbers, Tomatoes, Bell Peppers and Fresh Mozarella
This salad is the love child of tabbouleh and caprese salad. All of the greatness comes together for a rockin’ salad that is as healthy as it is delicious and will have you going back for seconds and thirds. My friend Amy was in town and in my evil plans to monopolize her whole day, […]
Garden Veggie Stir-Fry with Orange Miso Vinaigrette
Here’s a quick veggie stir-fry recipe that came together in around 30 minutes, including my chopping time. It almost doesn’t need a recipe – just stir-fry whatever veggies you have from your garden (or CSA) and use my favorite Orange Miso Vinaigrette as the sauce, serve over hot rice and dinner is served. Garden Veggie Stir-Fry with […]
Kale, Potato, Navy Bean Hash with Sun-Dried Tomatoes and Cress
We’ve been super busy this week and I haven’t had a lot of time to cook as much as I’d have liked. We’ve been relying on quick meals. This is one recipe I made for lunch today, in fact, that came together in about 20 minutes including chopping. It uses leftover baked potatoes, but fresh […]
