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, [...]

Curried Quinoa and Chick’n Salad

I hate to say this twice in the span of a week…but you really should try this quinoa recipe. It is absolutely delicious and given the fact that it is “chicken salad”, surprisingly low in calories. I made this recipe last week on a massive cooking day, and posted that I had made a curried [...]

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 [...]

I don’t know about you but when I’m feeling like there is more to do in a given day than I can possibly get done, I find myself reaching for foods that are….less than ideal.   I could blame the fact that my boys had a fleeing infatuation with bagel chips (and the hubby bought [...]

Quinoa Burger

Today’s Quinoa Burger is a protein packed meal that will please herbivores and carnivores alike.  It happens to be my husbands new favorite veggie burger recipe, and I often make a double batch just for him.  With over 30 grams of protein per serving, its an ideal hungry man’s dinner, veggie style! Now, my apologies [...]

Quinoa Taco Bowl

Anyone who knows me knows that I crave creamy comfort food. In fact, there was a point in my life that if you had asked me my favorite food it would have been a toss up between macaroni and cheese and sour cream. (And the sour cream part would have been only half joking.) I [...]

January is always a busy time around here and I can’t help but get a little excited by all the activity. Traffic spikes pretty dramatically thanks to everyone trying to start the New Year off with healthy eating. If you are new around here, I’d like to give you a heartfelt welcome. Please take the [...]

Spicy Sun Dried Tomato and Broccoli Quinoa Pasta

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 [...]

Quinoa Protein Bars

Given the fact that it is the first of the year, I’m guessing that I’m not the only one who is placing an increased focus on health, nutrition and exercise. Although I always say that “this is the year” that I’m finally going to regain my pre-baby body, I really DO believe that this is [...]

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 [...]
