St. Patrick’s Day Green Breakfast Cookies Recipe

I hope I’m squeezing in this recipe in time for your St. Patrick’s Day baking! I know how much fun it is to surprise the kiddos with green treats on St. Patrick’s Day. I have had amazing feedback from the “green” recipes I have posted in the past. If you’re new here, you must check out these green muffins, this vegan mint chip smoothie, green pancakes, and this matcha chia pudding parfait. If you’re looking for something savory, I always make this vegan split pea and barley soup with whole wheat Irish soda bread. My family loves it so much, I make it often in the colder months.Continue reading

The Best Grain-free Sandwich Bread Recipe

After I posted this bread on Instagram over the weekend, I had no idea that the reaction would be so enthusiastic for this recipe! I’m excited to share it with you, but I didn’t have time to remake it and photograph the step-by-step instructions. So just read through the instructions so you are familiar with the steps and you’ll be fine. I originally developed this recipe for Clean Eating Magazine and the editors went crazy for this bread. I’m not grain-free but I really like grain-free baked goods. They’re higher in protein, lower in carbohydrates (usually) and they last longer in the fridge.Continue reading

Yerba Mate Chicken and Cilantro Soup Recipe

Yerba Mate Chicken and Cilantro Soup | Pamela Salzman

This blogpost is sponsored by the Argentinian Yerba Mate Board. All opinions are my own.

Let me introduce you to my new favorite morning companion, Argentinian Yerba Mate. I have touted my love of tea many times on this blog and on my instagram, and I believe it’s a wonderful addition to a well-balanced, whole food diet. Yerba mate, however, is a step up from your typical bag of green tea. Originated and grown in Argentina from the yerba mate tree, this tea is chock-full of powerful antioxidants (shown to be even higher than green tea) and nutrients such as vitamins B and C, zinc, potassium and manganese. Yerba mate has been found to be ‘hepatoprotective’ which translates to: ‘protecting your liver cells’ and can help in weight loss. I also love that it provides as much energy as a cup of coffee but isn’t as harsh on your stomach. The traditional way to consume it is to prepare it in a traditional Argentinian gourd and drink through a straw.Continue reading

Vegetarian Kale Caesar Salad Recipe

Vegetarian Kale Caesar Salad | Pamela Salzman

Vegan husband update: STILL VEGAN!! Can you guys even believe this? MY meat and potatoes guy went vegan in October for 6 weeks and he’s still at it. He feels great, lost weight and is keeping it off and I’m trying to support him the best I can. BUT, the rest of us are not vegan, so I have to have a lot of flexibility in our meals. No problem. I’ve been trained for this in my classes over the last decade teaching in LA. Who’s avoiding this food group, who’s Paleo today, who’s mad at gluten…I’ve got this one!Continue reading
