Are you asking yourself if I have gone mad? Two desserts in one week! What happened to "moderation?" People, I write it like I see it and chocolate-covered frozen bananas are what the past few weeks have been about around here. Have you ever been in a "food phase?" I mean when you eat something ...
zucchini-blueberry bread
Have I warned you about planting mint in your garden? No? Ooops, sorry 'bout that. I know I have told several people to only plant mint in containers since its root system will go crazy and you'll never be able to get rid of it or kill it no matter how much you think you would never want to do ...
stone fruit crostata with spelt crust
I have been lucky enough to have had a summer intern working by my side for the last two months and for most of last summer, too. Hannah is entering her junior year at Cornell as a public policy major and has been an absolute joy to have in the kitchen. Sadly, today is her last day working with me ...
cinnamon “nachos” with fresh fruit salsa recipe
It was tense around here on Super Bowl Sunday as my husband's Steelers were getting walloped by the Packers. Nevermind that I had just laid out a fresh batch of baked chips and guacamole, no one was really hungry...except me, of course. As everyone watched in agony as the Packers' Nick Collins ...
lemon ice torte recipe
I went to my first Passover seder when I was in college in Philadelphia. I was dating a nice Jewish boy from California who had some relatives living outside the city. Aunt Lulu and Uncle Stanley invited us over for the holiday and I knew it was special for my boyfriend to be with family and to be ...
chocolate coconut macaroons recipe
If I am going to eat dessert, it better be good. It better be worth falling off the wagon for. Usually Passover desserts do nothing to tempt me from my sugar abstinence and that's not necessarily a bad thing. But I cannot in good conscience be the bringer of a sticky, heavy honey nut cake or one ...
almond butter and chia seed cookie recipe
Remember the commercials for Chia Pets, the clay animals with a green furry layer of sprouted chia seeds covering their bodies? Did your parents let you have one? I SO wanted a chia puppy! I can't help but chuckle at the fact that 30 years ago chia seeds were popular as an arts and crafts ...
vegan chocolate chip oatmeal cookies recipe
A funny thing happens when people start cooking healthful food for family and friends. They feel the need to announce that fact to everyone before serving it. "Ok, guys. Wait until you try this muffin! It's made with flaxseeds and almond meal and it has no sugar! It's unbelievable!" Of course ...
date-sweetened banana bread recipe
One of my pet peeves is when people label a dessert as "healthy," and not because that is grammatically incorrect, but rather because desserts have sugar of some form and that will never be "good" for you no matter how much whole wheat flour you throw in there. Of course, you could say one dessert ...
molasses-ginger cookies recipe
Just in time for your cookie exchange! These cookies are chewier than a gingersnap, but still wow you with that sweet and spicy kick. I love rolling them in unsweetened, shredded coconut instead of the traditional granulated sugar, but they are just as good without the additional ...
healthy brown rice pudding recipe
Brown rice is a staple in my home. A simple bowl of steamed brown rice, whether it is short-grain, long-grain, basmati or jasmine is utterly satisfying to me. I love the nuttiness and wholesomeness of brown over white. Keeping the rice whole, with the bran and germ layers intact, gives you loads ...
