Homemade Vegan Nutella

Friday, April 22nd, 2011

Finally, I did it!  I have been promising myself for way too long that I would make my own Choco-Hazelnut spread. I was super excited and looking forward to it all day.  This morning I got on the ball, and toasted the hazelnuts before starting work.  I let them cool, and around lunch-time I took […]

How do you like your gluten free waffles?

Wednesday, April 6th, 2011

Gluten Free Buckwheat Muesli

Wednesday, March 30th, 2011

Have you ever priced out muesli before?  It is pretty crazy how much stores/companies charge for “Swiss Muesli” or “Alpine Muesli”.  Honestly, the ingredients are not that expensive, and it is super easy to make.  Not many companies make a gluten-free version of it though, so a few years ago I started creating the muesli […]

Rosemary Roasted Potatoes with White Truffle Oil

Monday, March 28th, 2011

I know that Rosemary Roasted Potatoes are not necessarily a springtime dish, but spring is also known as  Primavera, which in Italian translates to the first truth.  So, since it is the time of truth, I will tell you that this recipe for Rosemary Roasted Potatoes came about because my Rosemary Christmas Tree was dying.  […]

Peach Rooibos Sun Tea

Saturday, March 12th, 2011

Yesterday I was talking on the phone with a friend and went into the bathroom to get something out of the medicine cabinet.  Just as I looked in the mirror he made me laugh and I was astonished!  I couldn’t believe my crows feet!  I had never seen them before.  I have noticed that I […]

Mele in Cartoccio – Baked Apples

I lucked out at Vitamin Cottage again the other day.  More $1 bags of organic apples…  So I bought two.  I recreated my Raw Apple Sauce recipe and then decided to whip up an old favorite: Mele in Cartoccio.  I first discovered this recipe while I was living in Florence, Italy.  I used to collect […]

It is cold here in Santa Fe!  I know that the Northeast and Midwest are getting a whole lot more snow that we have so far this winter, but…it was -2 degrees this morning, and didn’t warm up much more than that.  Apparently there is even a state of emergency here in Northern New Mexico, […]
