UPDATED OCTOBER 22, 2018: I LOVE those pumkins! Their vibrant autumn colors and different shapes, big and small, are simply beautiful and it's so much fun not only to cook and bake with them but also to decorate our homes with them in the fall! When all the kids were still at home, we would hold a pumpkin carving marathon for Halloween every year... ....and ... Read More »

Quinoa Kale & Corn Salad with Fresh Mint
Such a tasty vegan salad that is as delicious as it is nutritious! It is very simple to make but it requires some assembling-still, it is so worth it! The combination of my Simply Quinoa with a hint of turmeric (click here for recipe), sautéed kale and grilled corn is absolutely wonderful together and the fresh mint just gives it the perfect final touch! Quinoa Corn & ... Read More »
Mexican Stuffed Bell Peppers
Beans are a great source of protein and fiber and a wonderful addition to a healthy diet. I also sneak in bulgur wheat and lean ground turkey in this delicious recipe-- It's a complete meal stuffed in a pepper! Here is a salsa I like to use because it is relatively low in salt, has no added sugar (as, unfortunately a lot of them out there do!), and has wholesome simple ... Read More »
Dark Chocolate Cake
This “rich” cake is so moist, it does not even need frosting! …and the secret ingredient is…Zucchini…lots of it! Even I cannot believe how much I snuck in there! I can frankly say “snuck” because you wouldn’t know they were there. The grated zucchini just “melt” inside the cake batter when baked and the result is pure rich moistness! These also make wonderful little cupcakes ... Read More »
Soft Wheat Zucchini Bread
Such a yummy moist bread filled with zucchini! I cut so much sugar from the typical recipe and it’s still plenty sweet! I also use whole wheat pastry flour for the added fiber and of course canola oil as my source of healthy fat. I absolutely love this recipe! The only problem is that my kids devour it before I even have a chance to freeze the second loaf! Soft Wheat ... Read More »
Mousse Au Chocolat
Luscious, dark and creamy to perfection! All that with all of 3 ingredients - no need for added sugar, and of course no cream! I serve these individually in little expresso cups for a holiday party and they are absolutely BEAUTIFUL! The only issue is keeping them cold for the evening so I leave it to you to work that out but definitely worth it-- a classic dessert! I have ... Read More »
Chicken with Currant Wine Glaze
This dish always gets high praise. This is one of the recipes we featured on our healthy gourmet cooking tour of the central markets in Texas a few years back and WOW was the repetitive response at each and everyone of them! The blend of currants, caramelized onions and wine in this Chicken with Currant Wine Glaze is deliciously sweet, and the capers give it a perfect ... Read More »
Moroccan Tagine (Vegan)
A tagine is a Moroccan covered earthenware pot traditionally used to simmer stews slowly over coals. Of course, I have bypassed the coals, and, even the eartherware pot, but I kept the wonderful flavors and spices of Morocco just the same--cumin, ginger, cinnamon, turmeric, lemon, garlic, green olives....YUM! This delightful vegan dish is a one-pot hearty meal filled with ... Read More »

Just watch how I wed this power couple.... Click here for the recipe! and if you also want the recipe for my "Simply Spinach Dip" that goes beautifully with my Walnut-Crusted Wild ... Read More »
Cuisinicity video: Vegan Burger
Finally, a vegan burger you can sink your teeth into!! It's so easy to make too! I am so excited to show you (Can you tell?!!) because, once you have everything ready to go, it's a cinch to assemble! Notice that I say 3/4 cup cooked diced mushrooms is what you need, that's right, not 3 cups, which I say in passing later on, as I am distracted by what I am doing (argh, I ... Read More »
