Healthier & Happier Living with a Plant-Based Diet
I have a new favorite breakfast, and that's really saying something since I've never been much of a breakfast eater. For the past couple of years, there have been many recipes for Overnight Oats around the blogs - Angela has lots of variations on Oh She Glows. Ever since I saw the recipe, I've loved… Continue reading My New Favorite Breakfast
I've been looking for another form for tempeh recently and settled on tempeh meatballs. Easy to make, not too many ingredients and very tasty. In one shape or another, I can tell this recipe will become one of my staples. It was a very simple combination of ingredients - 2 packages of tempeh, 3 cloves… Continue reading Tempeh meatballs
Over the past few days, I've started experimenting more with oil- and salt-free recipes (with no added sweeteners) ~ rather than making a blanket (so to speak) of oil- and salt-based flavors, this is a great opportunity to really experience the flavors of the food. The pesto came about from an abundance of basil to… Continue reading Oil-Free Pesto Grilled Veggies

It will definitely give tons of wonderful information. On many (most?) food blogs, the recipes are tested and retested before… Continue reading The Banana Pancakes that Weren’t
A-ma-zing..... the only word for these. I've never before prepared an artichoke, but suddenly had a desire to have them grilled. I did a little research to find out how to actually prepare an artichoke and this was the result: They were soft and slightly smoky and tangy from the sauce. I first trimmed them… Continue reading Grilled Artichokes with Lemon Garlic Sauce
I'm planning to do one more post with some final quotes and comments from the end of the Food Revolution Summit, but wanted to take a quick break to share the amazing drink I made today. It's one of the easiest things I've ever made, and was totally incredible! I LOVE grapefruit juice.... especially fresh… Continue reading Sweet-Tart Frosty
“We’re beginning to get across the notion that the radicals in this situation aren’t us. What I want is a word a little like the one I was born into. That’s a pretty conservative notion. The radicals are the oil companies who want to alter the composition of the atmosphere.” Bill McKibben, founder of 350.org… Continue reading Voices from the Food Revolution Summit, Part 2
