First I want to give everyone who has taken the time out of their busy schedule to fill out the survey a heartfelt thank you. The volume of responses has been overwhelming and I have to say that I have read every single one! So many of you have touched me with your kindness and [...]

Quinoa Crispy Treats

A few weeks ago on a Whole Foods shopping extravaganza, something caught my eye in the bulk section. Strangely, it wasn’t a baby (that left me realizing just how big my boys are getting) or even a really cute guy (whom I’m almost old enough to be his mother, making me realize how old I’m [...]

It’s hard to believe that February is more than half over. I know that time is supposed to go faster as we get older, but seriously – where has this year gone?  There are so many things that I want to accomplish this year and it is time I really get focused if I want [...]

As much as I love quinoa patties and as much as I love garlic I will have to say that I’m surprised that it took me this long to come up with this combination. These little beauties were a winner and I will have to say my most successful egg-free quinoa patty yet. Now I’ve [...]

Quinoa Flautas

I’m sure its no secret to most of you that while I try to eat healthy, what I really crave is good old fashioned yummy food. It probably stems from my Southern roots and from the fact that at one point and time I considered sour cream a food group of its own. (And something [...]

Blueberry and Walnut Quinoa Salad

Although my passion for quinoa patties is no secret, the reality is that the one thing my refrigerator is rarely without is a quinoa salad recipe of some sort. Although the boys don’t necessarily agree with most of my garlic filled quinoa salads, I happen to think they are the perfect lunch or snack. Increasingly, [...]

Thai Black Rice & Quinoa Salad

Lately I’ve been feeling that the quinoa salad recipes I make for the family on a regular basis have gotten a little…redundant. Not that they aren’t super yummy, but when you eat quinoa as much as we do after a while it can get a little boring. So, I decided to liven things up a [...]

Crispy Southwestern Quinoa and Chick’n Burritos

It’s not often that I tell you that you really have to try a recipe…but you really have to try this one.   It reminds me a bit of something you would get at a restaurant and later find out that it has 800 calories and 30 grams of fat.  In fact, it was so yummy [...]

I have a confession. I haven’t been doing very well in the first month of the year with my plans to get fit and really work the kinks out of my diet.  You’d think running a website like this would keep me on track at all times, wouldn’t you? Not so much. So forgive me [...]

There are few things I enjoy more than really good bread. But lately, I’ve been increasingly aware of all the junk that is in the bread we buy. If you have never taken the time to do so, you really owe it to yourself to read the labels on bread – and not just major [...]

One of my goals for this year is to really master my eating. I think Gena over at Choosing Raw said it best when she talked about discovering our “eating identity”.  What I want to do is to figure out how I am happiest eating in a manner that has nothing to do with dieting [...]

Today I’ve got an easy to make and super healthy recipe for you that is perfect for your New Years resolution. The recipe began with a reader asking me if it was possible to convert it to a gluten free recipe, which I was happy to do. Unfortunately, this request came several weeks ago and [...]

As soon as Christmas is over, the first thing my mind goes to are plans for the New Year. Although I am the first to admit that I haven’t really ironed out what my goals are for next year, one thing I am clear on is that I need to refocus myself on eating healthy, [...]

If you would like to find a low calorie and guilt free alternative to meatballs, I’ve got a real treat for you! One of the most shocking things I’ve found since going vegetarian and then vegan is that I really don’t miss anything. Seriously. I thought for sure that giving up cheese was going to [...]

Kid Friendly Quinoa Fritters

If you have been reading long at all, you know that I love my foods spicy and with lots of kick. My boys  on the other hand aren’t nearly so enthusiastic. My salads are not-so-affectionately referred to as “stinky salads” and the boys run the other way whenever I’m eating one.  I sometimes wonder if  [...]

Gluten Free Pumpkin Quinoa Fritters

How was your Thanksgiving? Mine was a quiet and wonderful day spent with my favorite boys! Surprisingly, I didn’t do anything elaborate in the kitchen, which is completely unlike me. Instead, I focused on enjoying my family and was very glad I made that decision. It will probably be my last chance to relax until [...]
