Monday, February 20th, 2012
Whew! Its been a busy week…and especially a busy weekend! Who knew that President’s Day was a big vacation weekend? Well I am guessing some of you out there actually did…but me? I lived in a foreign country for the first 5 years of my adult life…away from American holidays and American school vacations. And […]

Apple Ginger Squash Muffins – Gluten-Free
Monday, October 31st, 2011
Happy Halloween! That’s it though…that is about as far as my Halloween celebration goes. You see, I am not big on Halloween. I am not big on costumes, candy and things that are scary. Costumes for me involve dressing up and feeling fancy…so basically I would just like to go out to a nice dinner […]

Tropical Cilantro Smoothie
Saturday, October 29th, 2011
Mom I know you are probably making some faces right now…maybe a few sounds affects too. Something to the sentiment of “yuck!” or “eww!” But keep reading, because I think you are going to like this. You see, my mother hates cilantro. She says it tastes like soap in her mouth, and I know she […]

Warm Chia Seed Nog – Dairy Free
Monday, October 24th, 2011
As soon as the weather gets cool, I am ready to start enjoying my homemade “egg nog”. I think this year it was actually early October that I made my first cup because we had an unusual cold-snap for a few days, and the instinct kicked in. We had a huge rain storm throughout the […]

Gluten-Free Chocolate Muffins
Friday, July 29th, 2011
Chocolate Banana Bread…becomes muffins! Ta-da! I have to say, I think that this is a genius move…not only because it keeps me from eating a whole loaf of sweet bread in one sitting (because now I have “portions” with each muffin) but also because these muffins can totally double as cupcakes. Personally, I don’t really […]

Sweet Pea Hummus
Tuesday, June 28th, 2011
The Santa Fe Farmers Market has been chock full of sweet peas, sugar snap peas and english peas in the past few weeks. The abundance has been inspiring to say the least, and I have been consuming lots and lots of peas! I have not had Sweet Pea Hummus in a few years but I […]

Gluten-Free Buckwheat Waffle Recipe
Friday, June 17th, 2011
Did it work? Did this sexy photo of gluten-free buckwheat waffles distract you from the Strawberry Rhubarb Sauce mess in the kitchen? Was I doing too many things at once? Probably, but sometimes I come up with so many fun ideas that when I finally get in the kitchen I get a little “gung-ho”. These […]

Vegan Egg Salad Sandwich
Saturday, May 21st, 2011
Where do I start? Gluten-free? Vegan? Soy Free? Or should I just tell you that this sandwich was amazing and you have to make it really soon?! Yeah…It was so good, it is gone. For a few days now, I have been waxing nostalgically about a delicious eggless chickpea salad that I made over a […]

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 […]
