I really relied on my slow cooker to get me through the winter. I use it almost every day to cook beans and other things. It’s easy for me to accidentally forget to make dinner for my family when I’m working like crazy. Isn’t that ironic? So much food around all the time for various […]
Vegan Risotto with Lemon and Asparagus
Whip up a healthy dinner – this vegan risotto with lemon and asparagus is flavorful and easy to make. Last week I learned how to make asparagus risotto.

Slow Cooker Red Lentil Dal Recipe
It’s no secret among people who know me that my very favorite cuisine in the world is Indian, with Thai being a close second, and Mexican coming in third. I will always and forever love Indian food. I could pretty much eat it every day (I almost do in some form or another) and never […]

Acai Bowl Recipe with Kale and Berries
A few years ago I fell in love with acai bowls. I had never heard of an “acai bowl,” but I was definitely acquainted with acai. We had previously had it in sorbet mixed with chocolate or blueberries, or in powder form. I went to a smoothie bar and tried my first acai bowl. A […]
Homemade Chorizo Sausage
A few years ago when I first made my black bean and chorizo chili, I decided to start making homemade chorizo sausage. It was for several reasons – first being that I hadn’t found a chorizo sausage I really loved, the second was that all of the packaged chorizo I could find ended up being […]
