Ready to end this season in style? Well, I’ve got you covered. When I think of Labor Day Weekend I think its the one summer weekend we all deserve to actually do nothing. Now I don’t mean not celebrate, the opposite, please celebrate! Do all the things you want to do before routines begins again…
Cucumber Avocado Toast with a Fried Egg
Oh avocado toast, you deliciously simple dish. It’s a perfect meal for breakfast, lunch or dinner. The toppings and creations are endless. I mean seriously, have you searched for avocado toast recipes lately, hundreds, if not thousands will pop. And I know another avocado toast, but I made this one on a whim one day…
Curry Spiced Quinoa + Kale Stuffed Acorn Squash
Ever since becoming a vegetarian, well a lacto-ovo-pescatarian {in simpler terms, I don’t eat any meat – fish, eggs, cheese, and milk are part of my diet}, it’s been a journey to not view my food choices as part of a “diet”, but rather adapting to a new eating lifestyle. Coming from a family of…
February Highlights
I seriously don’t know where this month went. It flew by in the blink of an eye, maybe because I was beyond busy trying to juggle different work schedules, balancing my life in between, and overcoming some emotional hardships, which I discussed earlier this week here. It’s definitely been a whirlwind of a month, and…
Seared Chimichurri Tofu with Caramelized Fennel and Celery
With January focused on getting back to an active lifestyle, I began eating clean once agin, but this time I’m not just doing this detox, I’m going to focus on finally committing to a clean lifestyle.

One of my goals for 2014 was to become more adventurous in the kitchen, making a new macaroon…

It’s beginning to look, and feel, a lot like fall here on the east coast this week. I’ll take the beautiful color changing trees, and comforting seasonal flavors, but as for the brisk weather that has me grabbing a light sweater and rain boots, that I’m just not ready for. Can I have my daily dose of…

Spent a gloomy afternoon crafting Brisker days this past week, feel like Fall is nearing too soon, and I’m dreading the end of Summer. The carefree days, and weekends spent enjoying the great outdoors as long as the sunshine allows us. Instead of focusing on the negative and how much I don’t enjoy the cooler…

It’s been another quiet week, and for someone like myself who can’t sit back and not do much, recovery from knee surgery has been a challenge. I haven’t spent hours conjuring new recipes in the kitchen, or going to the farmer’s market, or even worse been able to work in the garden, but these quiet…
Lentil “Meat”balls with Vegan Pesto
Being in the kitchen makes me happy, especially when I’m experimenting with different recipes, recreating dishes into healthy or more figure friendly options. Lentils are a friend of mine, except that time I ate them everyday then couldn’t look at them for a while. I make a big batch at the beginning of the week,…
