This for sure, is not the most exciting or tasty recipe I've posted...

I love quinoa. It provides such a great canvas to get creative. This recipe uses miso broth to make the quinoa, and while that simmers away, lightly sauté onion and garlic, add Bok Choy, spinach, green onion, cashews, sunflower sprouts...

As often happens, I had a craving for a sweet treat one afternoon last week. A quick look in the pantry revealed a distressing lack of goodies. Sigh. Thankfully, Dan had not yet discovered the tub of dates, so I knew I had a good...

Blessed with this summer heat the past few weeks, I've been reluctant to spend extra time in the kitchen. This is the time of year when I really embrace raw foods. Having said that, I find it hard to digest raw veggies such as cauliflower...

I have just a few short weeks to whip my boys into culinary masters - yikes! They will be off to university and fending for themselves. This heightened awareness of a very fast ticking clock that is called life has had me seeking out healthy...

I love dates. I have been known, when the sweet tooth strikes, to smear dates with peanut butter. (Oh, I just realized, I'm talking about the dates that grow on trees; not, you know, when someone asks you out. Sorry for the confusion.) This past Thursday...

I've been having fun experimenting with these tasty, mineral-rich, gluten-free kelp noodles the last few months. I've tossed them in miso broth, made creamy seed-based dishes, and now a fun take on sesame noodles. Elana Amsterdam has a great recipe for sesame noodles, which inspired...

One of my sisters-in-law has been following a strict diet to address "leaky gut" syndrome. Wishing to support her efforts, I've been experimenting with gluten-free recipes. Now is the perfect time to experiment with the wonder, cruciferous vegetable - cauliflower. Not only is it nutrient-dense...

So it all started with a lovely bunch of organic parsley I received with my weekly delivery of fresh organic produce (thank you, Organics Live). Fresh herbs and I have a tricky relationship. I buy them with the very best of intentions, and like a crappy...

As many of you know, I'm a huge fan of Holy Basil (Tulsi) tea. Not only do I enjoy its fragrant aroma, I'm a big fan of its many health benefits. Holy Basil is often referred to as the "elixir of life", and for good...
