So. I’m finally spilling. I’m giving away one of my favorite recipes of all time. And, from The Simply Real Health Cookbook (and the summer meal plan)- these Quinoa Stuffed Baked Tomatoes. They’re the perfect healthy summer (or, let’s be honest- any season) party dish, AND an easy make-ahead and one-pot [pan] lunch or dinner. Whatever […]

  I’ve had my eye on olive-oil cakes for a while. Fast definition: an Italian style side dish, usually made in a savory style without much sugar. You know. Interesting + different sounding. And therefore eye catching to me. Or maybe it’s just the word “cake” made with something healthier like olive oil (more likely […]

Fact: I’ve  had more than 5 people comment to me this week that I give so many of my healthy recipes and advice away for free, that they almost feel bad. (Almost). And don’t I run a business? Yes. Totally. I must be assuming too much. Assuming that you guys know that every post or […]

Just going to throw it out there. This might be it. Remember last year’s Pesto Kale Salad?

And good thing, because so is summer [almost]. Ingredients: Makes 16 avocado halves. You can easily halve this recipe as well, and use the crab salad on top of salad […]

Quinoa’s going mainstream. It’s by no means “new”– it’s one of the most ancient foods out there– but maybe that’s why it’s more suddenly cool. Like vintage clothes and trinkets. Whatever it is, I’m not complaining. Maybe that should be my new marketing tactic. It’s so “vintage” to eat real food. From dreadlock crowded juice […]

It is rare when chicken breasts make it into my shopping cart. Like almost a special occasion. Because I know what happens when they do. They sit and stare at me from the lowest tray in the fridge.
