Hearty and Healthful Curried Bean Stew
Hearty and full of fiber, this bean stew with chicken satisfies a curry enthusiast. Visiting my dad’s house recently, I found the refrigerator quite empty.

Gluten Free Fall Finds from Udi’s
I’ve spent the last few days curled up in a blanket as autumn rains pour. Okay, I’m also eight weeks pregnant and, to be fair, have spent the last several weeks curled up in a blanket. Cooking hasn’t been my forte, despite the tempting aroma of pumpkin spice mixes everywhere. So, this fall sampler of gluten […]

Chocolate Coconut Popcorn
As a mom who wants to feed her children a healthy, whole foods diet, I always make sure to have popcorn on hand. If we have an unexpected play date or there’s “nothing to eat” according to my children, I can always pop some popcorn and nobody will go hungry. I buy organic popcorn kernels […]

Chocolate Mint Simple Syrup
This summer, I planted some chocolate mint in my garden. I love the smell of fresh mint, and chocolate mint is one of my favorite flavored mint varieties.

Mug Cakes!
Confession: my husband and I almost never get to go out on dates. For most of you, this is probably a common story. With three little ones, it is pretty hard to find someone who is willing to (affordably!) watch them for us. We can get the grandparents to do it sometimes, but most of […]
