My teenagers eating well, this way, is a big victory for me!
My cooking with carrot juice experience started with Cuisinicity’s Carrot Cider Baked Chicken dish, recently. Today, I wanted to learn about eating vegan, and this recipe was a natural choice. Right now I’m listening happily to sounds of spoons clanking against the sides of bowls as my 15 year old son, in particular, devours his carrot quinoa lentils!!! !! Teenagers eating ... Read More »
Carrot Quinoa Lentils
This is a complete meal in one dish, filled with plant-based protein! The combination of carrots and curry is sweet and tangy and the carrot juice gives it a slight creaminess! Yum! It's superb right off the stove but I also love to make it ahead and have it ready to go in the fridge for a cold lunch over mixed greens. I have a cooking class video here! Carrot ... Read More »
A Family Resolution
A couple months back, I received the following sweet e-mail from a loving grandmother. It is, in a way, the inspiration for today's post, so bear with me: Hi Catherine I love your healthy recipes and am hoping you can help me find a better alternative for my granddaughter's first birthday cake. Of course at 1 year old almost, she is very into food she can eat herself with ... Read More »

Strawberry Banana Panini
This is a fresh fruit panini that is just delightful for breakfast or lunch! It's just made with fresh sliced strawberries and banana, Greek yogurt, a little honey and a dash of cinnamon. But watch out! It's all in the ingredients you choose: I use wholegrain bread that is high in fiber, low in salt, low in sugar, and has no partially hydrogenated oils (even has lentils, and ...

Spinach Pear Smoothie
I have to admit I was never much of a fan of these really healthy-looking green veggie smoothies! I mean, a spinach drink...really? Nutritious, yes, I had no doubt, but at what cost, I thought (not for this French foodie here). Well, I was wrong! This spinach pear smoothie is so refreshing and satisfying, just slightly sweet and surprisingly, not overly "spinachy" (!) I love ... Read More »
Carrot Cider Baked Chicken
No one besides the chef can ever figure out the secret ingredient in this dish. It's carrot juice as the title gives away, of course, but you don't need to tell! The subtle sweetness of the carrot juice and cider combines with the rich taste of the dark beer (non-alcoholic beer works just as well) and the fresh grated ginger and makes this sauce outrageously delicious!! Enjoy ... Read More »
Almond Orange Chocolate Torte
This dark chocolate torte tastes lusciously rich and moist yet it has all of 2 Tbsp of canola oil! The secret lies in the addition of the ground almonds with their healthy unsaturated oils as well as the applesauce and fat free plain yogurt. This is one dessert you will be able to “indulge” in without any guilt! It is a little more time consuming than my other desserts but it ... Read More »
Galette with Caramelized Onions, Tomatoes & Goat Cheese
Made with my rustic savory galette crust, this is wonderful as an appetizer because you can slice it and eat it with your fingers--no need for silverware here! I use my Simply Cipollini and my Simply oven-dried tomatoes with a little fresh goat cheese (I use a full-fat rich flavorful one but use it sparingly-- a little goes a long way!), fresh thyme as there you have it! ...
