Quinoa and beet salad with hazelnuts

A few months back I made a salad with arugula, beets, oranges, avocados and hazelnuts. The combination of beets and hazelnuts was so delicious that I decided to create a quinoa salad using some of the same flavors. The result is a salad that’s as delicious as it is pretty. And let’s not forget, this

Red lentil and vegetable curry

I was trying to come up with a one-pot Indian meal to make to go along with my usual Sunday night TV extravaganza (Mad Men! The Killing! The Good Wife! Girls!). Something like comfort food, Indian-style. I found my starting point with Fat Free Vegan’s Cauliflower Dal with Panch Poran. Panch phoran i

Banana almond butter muffins

The first time I made muffins with nut butter and bananas, they were a bust.  I thought that since they contained bananas, a little bit of maple syrup would be enough to sweeten them. And I figured a few tablespoons of peanut butter would add a lot of flavor. Wrong on both counts. The result [...]

Kale salad with apricots and almonds

I’m always amazed at how divisive kale is. People either say they love it more than any other food, or they can’t stand it.  However, I find that those who say they hate it really haven’t eaten it more than once or twice – and they probably haven’t had it prepared in an interesting way. [...]

Cilantro-lime hummus

I’ve come to the conclusion that hummus is one of the most perfect foods. It has protein, fiber and all that jazz … and it’s deliciously satisfying. But (isn’t there always a but?) if you’re eating standard-issue, store-bought hummus, it can get monotonous. And the ingredients in some brands can be

Savory whole grain spinach muffins

When I happened upon the gorgeous spinach muffins on Green Kitchen Stories, I immediately challenged myself to make a vegan version. Rather than following the original gluten-free approach, I used a combination of whole grain flours in my recipe. White whole wheat flour works really well, and I thin

Lemon-ginger quinoa with chickpeas and kale

“It’s a bit like 70s vegetarian food.” Hmmm, not the most ringing endorsement from my husband.  But then he added: “But it’s really, really good.” OK, that’s better. And really, 70s vegetarian food was kind of what I was going for. After I’ve been eating badly (in this case, too many tacos on my tri

White bean bruschetta with gremolata

This white bean bruschetta is perfect for a party appetizer, or just for snacking. It fits my Top 3 criteria: Easy. Healthy. Delicious. Sure, I’ve had white bean bruschetta before, and it’s always good. But the gremolata topping here – the holy trinity of lemon zest, garlic and parsley – puts this b

Marinara sauce

OK, let me confess right up front – I eat much more pasta than this blog lets on. As a matter of fact, a bowl of pasta with marinara sauce is one of my favorite things in the world, and I eat it at least once a week (with whole wheat pasta, of course!) So [...]

Dark chocolate bark with almonds and blueberries

  Dear Valentine, Since Valentine’s Day falls in American Heart Month, I thought dark chocolate bark was a particularly fitting gift for you. Dark chocolate is full of flavonoids and antioxidants, have cardiovascular benefits (and let’s face it, your cholesterol could be a little lower.) To amp up t
