Edamame and Greens Salad
Confession time: I’m a salad fanatic. If I haven’t had my daily greens, or some sort of salad during the day, I feel a little lost. I love the crunch of a good salad, and the textures! Yes, I’ve gotten some looks while enjoying a salad as big as my head. Don’t worry about it!…

Zesty Tahini Sauce
Most foodies have that one current ingredient obsession that they just can’t seem to get enough of. I would describe it kind of as a phase, where we justify putting that particular ingredient in just about everything. I’ve gone through that with cilantro, avocado, chickpeas… and that’s just this year! But recently, I’ve moved on.…

Date & Honey Sweetened Banana Muffins
Banana muffins really need no introduction – I mean, who doesn’t love a good banana muffin? They’re warm, delicious treats that make a home smell amazing.

Pink Chocolate Coconut Bark
You know how some people say “I have a sweet tooth”? Well I have sweet TEETH. That’s right – a whole mouthful. But as I have gotten older, the 5 cent candy aisle at the nearest convenience store just won’t cut it anymore. I want sweet, but I always want beneficial. I want “treat yourself”,…

Grounding Cauliflower Apple Soup
My instructor was talking just the other day about how she defines foods in two separate categories: “noisy” (inflammatory, irritating, disruptive) and “quiet” (peaceful, nourishing, easy to digest). I love that concept. When life is crazy (often) , I am drawn to the quiet foods. The foods that nourish and give, and hardly ask for…
