Did you know that Quinoa contains almost twice more fiber than any other grain and is one of the most protein-rich foods we can eat, containing all 9 essential amino acids? Well...I just found out myself!! All I knew is that I just LOVE the taste and texture of quinoa and the carrot juice in this recipe brings out its flavor beautifully! The chickpeas add a heartiness to this ... Read More »
Baked Tilapia Provençal
I now make this with barramundi which is a much better environmentally-sustainable alternative to tilapia and is just as delicious! You can often find it in the freezer section at the health food store. Just defrost it and proceed with the recipe that follows. This is a very tasty way to bake tilapia with a southern French flavor. All the ingredients for this quick and easy ... Read More »
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! Orange Chocolate Torte 1 cup whole wheat ... Read More »

Pumpkin Pie with Pecan Crust
I LOVE this pumpkin pie! No surprise it got rave reviews when it was featured on Good Morning America for Thanksgiving a few years ago! Typically, a pumpkin pie is made with a regular pie shell made up of white flour, shortening, sugar and salt and the custard contains molasses, salt and sometimes butter or cream. Instead, this luscious pie uses a nutty/ puffin cereal base ... Read More »
Hearty Turkey Chili
This turkey chili is hearty and satisfying! It is filled with beans and uses a relatively small amount of extra lean ground turkey breast (with no skin or dark meat mixed in—check the package label) so it is not only luscious but heart-healthy as well. The hint of chipotle and balsamic vinegar give it a little "kick" that is just right! The addition of cornmeal at the very ... Read More »
Peach Almond Cobbler
If you are so lucky to have fresh peaches at your local market, here is a peach almond cobbler that I think you will LOVE! It is delectable and of course so much more nutritious than the typical cobbler recipe. I have added ground almonds not only to add nutritional value but also to make it almost "buttery" tasting. I am using a mixture of extra virgin olive oil (only 2 Tbsp ... Read More »
Confetti Orzo Pasta Salad
This exotic salad is always a hit! GORGEOUS vegan dish on a buffet table! It is delicious, bursting with color and very festive. The sweetness of the bell peppers, fresh lime and dried fruit blend beautifully together.

Harvest Apple Cake
I love to make this cake during the apple-picking season when my kids (and especially my husband) go crazy and I end up with a ”ton” of apples from every variety! No matter which ones I mix together, macouns, golden delicious, gala, McIntosh, you name it…it doesn’t seem to matter, it always comes out just right—rich and moist and just delicious! Oh, and one more thing I love ... Read More »
Creamy Red Lentil Squash Soup
This wonderful creamy red lentil squash soup is a family favorite that I like to make on a cold winter night! The spices (coriander, cumin cinnamon & turmeric...Yum!) blend beautifully with the sweet flavor of the butternut squash and the red lentils. No one has any idea that this nutritional powerhouse of a legume, rich in protein, fiber and vitamin and minerals is ... Read More »
