Do you ever feel like there might not be anything in the world better than a simple tray of fresh and healthy grilled vegetables? Especially after some loooong hours stuck in a car? We had the most amazing couple of days in Mendocino, CA. Soaking up the ocean air, surrounded by birds, wind, […]
Is there anything better than fresh and healthy seasonal seafood recipes? Not when you can make an amazingly bright (gluten-free!) and nutritious dish of gentle cod with pops of crisp fresh vegetables and smooth, velvety, and intense roast red pepper puree! Helping out now and then at one of my favorite restaurants in the […]
I’ve tried a lot of GF pastas. A lot. Back when I used to eat gluten, my favorite thing in the world, my happy place, and my comfort food was a big bowl of pasta. Unfortunately, though most of the GF pastas out there are totally acceptable, they’re not anywhere near the same. There are usually strange flavors or textures, or the pasta goes straight from undercooked to mush. Don’t get me wrong, I’m happy it’s out there! But I had to find a better option. And I did!
The time has come to make the big announcement: We’re pregnant!!!!!!! We are having a baby! Some of you might have noticed that I’ve gone a little quiet lately (okay, totally silent…), and I have a very, very good reason for that! After wanting to start a family for a couple […]
It was the perfect day for cookies. Yesterday could not have been better for a warm, gooey, meltingly-delicious gluten free chocolate chip cookie recipe in any way. It was cool, rainy, dark, and lovely; just the sort of day that calls for a thick comforter, a good book or movie, and a warm batch […]
It was an absolutely perfect day for this unbelievably healthy carrot soup! This is that perfect time of year when healthy soup recipes just can’t be beat. Rich, warm, and velvety (but still magically vegan, gluten- and dairy-free!), with a little sunflower seed crunch and pickled pepper spiciness, this was the perfect soup for […]
Best Yellow Curry Ever! This yellow curry recipe with seared halibut and fresh summer vegetables was incredible! Bright and deep, velvety, and packed with healthy ingredients, it was the perfect way to to take advantage of the gorgeous vegetables still filling the backyard garden. It was so delicious that you’d never guess that this curry […]
Why on earth should I start a backyard garden? Simple! So you can have access to the best produce available. Produce that you’ve grown yourself. Because knowing what can grow and how and when it can grow will improve every meal you make. Because you should have some food available to you and your family […]
Rice bowl recipes rock! As promised, here is the unbelievably yummy and super healthy Donburi-style rice bowl (part 2), one of the best rice bowl recipes in the world! It’s one of those ridiculously nutritious rice bowl recipes with vibrantly exciting flavors from pickled vegetables, pickled mushrooms, seaweed salad, cabbage, scallions, sesame, and more, plus a […]
These simple (gluten-free and vegan!) pickled mushrooms are just stupid good! Before I get to the recipe, though, I have to mention the amazing even that I attended recently. Last week, I headed off to San Francisco to catch Women Leaders at the Table: Addressing Inequity in the Good Food Movement. Held by the Commonwealth Club, it […]
Smooth, silky, smokey, and surprisingly simple…there’s no flavor better than smoked salmon that you’ve made yourself. Simultaneously rich and healthy, filled with awesome Omegas and protein, and with flavor that is absolutely out-of-this-world-better than anything that you can find at the store. You have to try making DIY smoked salmon at home! I’ve […]
I have a new obsession. Orange sauce. It’s amazing on everything!!! Awesome sauce at it’s best. So….the other day the awesome dude looked up after some intense online time and asked if I had ever heard of this “Mexican food-type orange sauce” that people were absolutely raving about. He said it sounded like a […]
