May 17 2012 by · Comments
Can you believe a few years ago I hated coconut?! If something had coconut in it I avoided it at all costs. After lots of reading and research on the many, many health benefits of coconut I decided to give it a try – how bad could it really be? I used to hate guacamoleRead more...

Each fall I look forward to apple season, each winter I look forward to Brussel sprouts and every summer I count down the days until peaches and nectarines show up in the supermarket.

Memorial Day weekend is just around the corner and that means the official start of summer. Grilling, picnics, reunions and festivals will fill the days ahead and so will all the delicious foods that are found there.

I’m sure almost everyone has had several different kinds of root vegetable chips. Potato, sweet potato, carrot, beet, parsnip are all standard chip material but have you ever had eggplant chips? Before making these crisps I never though of eggplant as chip material. When I think eggplant I think good… but soft and sometimes mushy.Read more...
Seared Sugar Snap Peas

Before morning sickness hit I was going through a pea phase. I was buying up sugar snap peas by the pound and adding them to every meal I made. They are by far one of my most favorite vegetables. Right now they are blooming in our garden and there was no way I was goingRead more...

How do you like your brownies? Soft and cake-like or gooey and fudgey? I love a good ooey-gooey fudgey brownie. No cake like brownies for me. I have tried so many variations of brownie recipes recently that I have lost count. While they all taste good they end up dry as desert sand or crumbleRead more...

The past few weeks I’ve shared with you the foods I’m loving, my new favorite dessert and the foods I always have on hand in my freezer. But it’s time I’ve come clean. The past few weeks my diet has consisted of none of those things. It’s been plain cereal, pretzels, plain toast and moreRead more...
Millet with Arugula and Oranges
May 07 2012 by · Comments
I could talk about how I like this recipe because of the nice balance of flavors with the bite of arugula, the sweet oranges combined with the creamy millet. Or I could talk about how eating this makes me smile to think I’m eating bird seed and how I’ve become a Euell Gibbons of sortsRead more...
