Maple Chai Smoothie Bowl (Vegan & Gluten-Free)

Maple Chai Smoothie Bowl (Vegan & Gluten-Free)

March 4, 2016

I think I might have been a squirrel in a past life.  Aaaand I just fell down an Internet rabbit hole searching for a squirrel emoji. Evidently there isn't one, though there is a koala emoji (?), a poodle emoji (?), and a water buffalo emoji (?). But I digress. The reason I think I ...

Dill Pickle Hummus

Dill Pickle Hummus

January 29, 2016

To quote Leo in Titanic, do you trust me? Because I'm about to ask you to take a giant leap of faith and put a whole lot of pickles in your hummus. In my mid-twenties, when I first moved to Brooklyn, I worked for a couple of years at a popular Israeli restaurant. They did an insane amount of ...

No Spiralizer Carrot Noodles with Peanut Sauce (Gluten-Free & Vegan)

No Spiralizer Carrot Noodles with Peanut Sauce (Gluten-Free & Vegan)

January 22, 2016

You guys, my spiralizaer is on the fritz.    Earlier this week, as I was prepping this recipe, the carrots started catching on the blade and making these weird little C-shaped shavings instead of long pasta-like strands. I thought maybe the carrots were too tough, but then I tried it ...

Morning Glory Smoothie with Quinoa (Gluten-Free & Vegan)

Morning Glory Smoothie with Quinoa (Gluten-Free & Vegan)

January 20, 2016

Be honest. Are your mornings glorious these days? Mine definitely aren't. They usually start around 6:15AM, when Owen appears at my side of the bed asking 1) if he can watch TV, and 2) if he can have something totally inappropriate for breakfast, like M&Ms or Cheez-Its. I steel myself and tell ...

Overnight Breakfast Bulgur with Maple Berry Sauce (Vegan)

Overnight Breakfast Bulgur with Maple Berry Sauce (Vegan)

January 13, 2016

Ever since I read Yes Please last year, I've remembered Amy Poehler's motto, "Good for her, not for me." It's kind of how I feel about anyone who has given up sugar. That's awesome for you, and so healthy, but I would never do it. I mean, I wrote a dessert cookbook. It's no secret that ...

Chocolate Raspberry Smoothie Bowl (Vegan)

Chocolate Raspberry Smoothie Bowl (Vegan)

December 21, 2015

Let's have chocolate for breakfast and feel good about it. I'd like to introduce you to this ↑↑↑. The first smoothie bowl I have ever made or consumed. I honestly don't know why it took me so long to get on the bandwagon. What's not to love? It's basically just a smoothie with ...

Rosemary Truffle Popcorn

Rosemary Truffle Popcorn

December 16, 2015

I think I'm a wee bit stressed out. I don't consciously feel anxious, but a few nights ago, I had a dream that all of my teeth fell out. While I was taking a math test. So yeah, stressed. Maybe it's because of the holidays (I have done approximately 0% of my shopping), maybe it's because we are ...

Soba Noodles with Tofu and Spicy Sesame Sauce (Vegan & Gluten-Free)

Soba Noodles with Tofu and Spicy Sesame Sauce (Vegan & Gluten-Free)

December 8, 2015

We need to talk about buckwheat noodles. I recently learned three things about Japanese soba noodles (aka buckwheat noodles): They are naturally gluten-free. They have amazing health benefits: they help to lower blood pressure and cholesterol, and they are rich in fiber and ...

Butternut Squash Pomegranate Smoothie

Butternut Squash Pomegranate Smoothie

November 6, 2015

My mom went through a phase of eating half a butternut squash for dinner. I must have been in middle school at the time. I remember it because she usually just ate whatever my brother and I were having (spaghetti), and then all of a sudden she started preparing something separately just for herself. ...

Raw Pad Thai with Spicy Almond Sauce

Raw Pad Thai with Spicy Almond Sauce

November 4, 2015

OMG you guys, this sauce. I ate so much of it off the spoon as I was prepping to photograph this dish that I was worried for a second that there wouldn't be enough left. Seriously, it is SO GOOD. Creamy almond butter, tart lime juice, fresh ginger and garlic, and tons of sriracha. When did ...
