Who wouldn’t agree that breakfast is the greatest meal? I mean, come on. You can eat it for breakfast (duh), lunch, or even dinner. I know some of you make eggs on a skillet for dinner! Although breakfast has a ton of possibilities, I would have to say breakfast potatoes are a pretty big staple…
I had been so busy with starting this hard kombucha company that my adventures in the kitchen had dwindled to be completely honest. I felt so out of balance due to the fact that I hadn’t been cooking new recipes as much as I normally do. My meals became quick and easy yet lacked any…
Every week I go to the Green City Market. In the summer, I usually go twice! This year, there was a new vendor in town: American Pride Microfarms. He grows a ton of microgreens, which are basically tiny broccoli, kale, amaranth, sunflower sprouts. The list is endless. According to Brad at American Pride Microfarms, they’re…

I was living at my parents for about a month while my house had asbestos contamination. This put quite the damper on my cooking since I was commuting to and from the city to the burbs. My yoga classes would start around 6am and end around 8pm most days. I cherished every moment that gave…
Anything with beets just amazes me. The color is so vibrant and luxurious. You’ve heard me say similar things before if you’ve read my beet hummus blog. Plus, you cannot beat the flavor of beets! Seriously. Mix them with spaghetti squash and you’ll be sure to enjoy a fantastic meal. I used the leftover sauce on…
This majestic magenta color makes me swoon. There is something about beet hummus that makes me feel mesmerized. Look at the deep pink and purple hues. I’ve been trying out a bunch of hummus variations and this is definitely one of my faves. The beets add a wonderful sweetness to the hummus. I sprinkled some Beauty Dust…
I’ve made this black bean burger a few times and it seems like every single time I’ve experimented, it’s fallen apart. It was on the Energy Mastery Palm Springs retreat menu.
