Healthier & Happier Living with a Plant-Based Diet
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 theĀ easiest things I've ever made, and was totally incredible! I LOVE grapefruit juice.... especially fresh… Continue reading Sweet-Tart Frosty
Today I made one of the easiest & yummiest things ~ a hot & sweet potato. Sweet potatoes are incredibly nutritious, especially the ones that are darker orange. Yams are also darker orange, and share many of the same nutrients, even though yams and sweet potatoes are only distantly related. They have a good amount… Continue reading A Hot & Sweet Potato

Today turned out to be the perfect day for it, with pouring rain and hail and thunderstorms. I thought about what kind to make and decided… Continue reading Friday night is Italian night
Oh, potato chips.... little salty crunchy things that get so many people into trouble. Why? Because they taste so good.... but they have too much fat, too much salt and about 5000 calories a handful. I have been on a mission to find a great substitute for them, and found something that brings us partway… Continue reading Better than a potato chip ~ Part 1
This is an easy, great recipe that I often make for breakfast but would also be a filling dessert.Ā One of the best things about it is how easy it is to make lots of variations. It's based on 2 simple ingredients - apple and oatmeal. Just like the variations for oatmeal are endless, so… Continue reading Breakfast or dessert? Baked stuffed apples
