Dinner Planner – Week of May 10, 2021

Check out last week’s dinner planner to see some easy ideas for Mother’s Day brunch or breakfast!  Or make the simple French Strawberry Cake I just posted.  Couldn’t be easier and everyone loves it.  Last year my kids made me the Apple-Blackberry Breakfast Crisp from “Kitchen Matters” and a savory Dutch Baby.  Make something for the mom in your life! Here’s your dinner planner for the week:Continue reading

French Strawberry Cake Recipe

I have been on a quest to simplify as many things in my life as possible.  I don’t want unnecessary stuff that collects dust, nor do I need to make or eat complicated recipes when I will be perfectly happy with simple foods.  Just because I can make something challenging and over-the-top, doesn’t mean I want to.Continue reading

Dinner Planner – Week of May 3rd, 2021

Two of my absolute favorite bootcamps ARE BACK THIS WEEK!! Entertaining with Ease starts Wednesday  and Plant-Based 2.0 starts Thursday!  I would love to teach you everything you need to know to effortlessly have friends over as often as you want and/or advance your knowledge of plant-based eating and cooking.  Both of these courses received rave reviews and I know you will learn so much.  It’s fun to take my bootcamps live so you can ask me anything you want in real time and have the support of other students, but all classes are available to watch on your own time as often as you like!

May I entice you with discount codes to sweeten the deal?

Use EWE100 for $100 off the Entertaining course and YESPB2 for $100 off the Plant-Based 2.0 course.  I also have payment plans available!  Click the links with the codes to learn more.  They’d be great Mother’s Day gifts!! Here’s your dinner planner for the week:Continue reading

I had a bananas week, and I am sooooo happy for the weekend!  I do have some exciting news for you though.  I am repeating 2 previous bootcamps beginning the first week in May!!  Last spring I taught a 4-week course called Entertaining with Ease which was an absolute blast to teach and the feedback from the participants was incredible!  Who wants to start entertaining???  Exactly!  I will only be repeating it this year in May, so definitely sign up if you are at all interested.  I will also be repeating my advanced plant-based bootcamp called Plant-Based 2.0.  This might be my favorite course I have taught yet!  Here’s the link to get on the waitlist for these courses.  It’s only a waitlist, not a registration.  You will be the first to know when sign-ups are open and this list also receives a special discount code.  I will only teach one session of each and spots are limited!!  So excited!!   Here’s your dinner planner for the week:Continue reading

Dinner Planner – Week of April 19th, 2021

The fam and I are in Montecito visiting friends for the weekend.  I absolutely love it here and if Hubs said, “let’s retire in Montecito,” I’d say, “I’ll start packing!”  My friend Chrissy is a great plant-based cook and we always have fun in the kitchen together.  We decided it would be fun to do an IG live together on Saturday at 5:00 pm PT!  We should be able to pull this off after a Pickleball match with the guys!   Here’s your dinner planner for the week:Continue reading

Dinner Planner – Week of April 12th, 2021

I had a lovely, lovely week with my family on Long Island.  Easter was simple but just right.  We had a delightful meal that we didn’t work too hard to pull together, and we enjoyed lots of spring veggies and the like.  It was a nice break for me as well, but I am back to regularly scheduled programming.  I will be doing my Instagram LIVE on Monday at 5:00 pm.  I’ll see if I can get Hubs to join me.  My newest bootcamp launched this past week and I am beyond excited with the fabulous group who decided to join me.  If you are interested in participating in future bootcamps, make sure you are subscribed to my website so you’re the first to hear.  In May I am repeating Entertaining with Ease and I may also repeat Plant-Based 2.0!  Here’s your dinner planner for the week:Continue reading
