I'm writing this as I enjoy a nice, warm cup of Holy Basil tea, and I can't help but think that I never would have thought that I'd be sharing a soup recipe in the middle of May! Climate change sure is bringing us tumultuous...

When it comes to my water, I can't help myself. I absolutely have to doctor it up some how. It's a bit of a creative outlet and a fun challenge to figure out new ways to enhance my water. Ultimately, it ensures that I meet...

Recipe creation in my house usually looks like this: I have a vague idea of what I would like to make, and I couple that with what I have on hand. Other times, the creation hinges on a particular ingredient that I would like to...

Wishing for a departure from my traditional smoothie for breakfast, I've been experimenting with chia pudding. Chia is a remarkable seed, jam-packed with nutrients, and it is incredibly versatile. Due to its neutral taste and ability to "gel", it's often used as a thickening or...

Oh my goodness we adore date squares. Robb likes to conduct "research" by visiting bakeries and testing out date squares (and butter tarts I might add) in efforts to find "the one". It's a tough job, I know, but one he bravely and tenaciously takes...

Kale has been the darling of the "leafy green vegetable" world, and for good reason. It's hearty, nutrient-dense and can tolerate harsh growing conditions. Having said that, kale is not the only green in town. Swiss Chard is also a hearty green absolutely loaded with...
