This is one of our favorite after-dinner treats. We have added all kinds of fruit to the mix- and even eaten it without any other fruit but the banana base. Excellent with a bit of vanilla, or substitute with a bit of maple syrup or maple syrup flavoring for a completely different kick. This mixes …
Similar to my Pumpkin Scones, these applesauce scones are hearty and satisfying. These are so versatile- I’ve served them as sides for dinner or lunch, as a brunch option, as dessert (my kids love them with a little jam on top), or as a side dish brought to a potluck. I often have these on …
My husband and I love spicy dinners, but my kids are not as enthusiastic. On days when I have leftovers for them, I will make this for Mark and I, so we get something delicious without offending their delicate palates. We love this vegan, oil-free dinner- it’s hearty, satisfying, and delicious- everything we want on …
If you love Heart Thrive bars, this recipe will give you (almost!) the same heart-healthy, delicious taste from your own kitchen.
A friend of mine casually mentioned the other day that she makes sweet potatoes every morning in her Instant Pot, and I admit I scoffed to myself. “Every morning?” I thought, “Psh, I make mine once a week and they’re always available in the fridge.” But… since I just got this Instant Pot… I thought, …
I sometimes have lower back pain, and this is my go-to breakfast when I want to soothe the inflammation in my back. This is also great if you’re a little sore from working out (I also love marshmallow root for that- which is in Throat Coat tea, and available as a supplement) or if you’ve …
Santa brought me an Instant Pot for Christmas, and I’ve been happily trying all my favorite recipes in it. It’s so satisfying to get a deep, rich, “all day cook” taste out of this little machine after just a few minutes of cooking. I love how the flavors of all my herbs and spices permeate …
Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn recommends an oil-free, vegan diet in his book Prevent and Reverse Heart Disease . In addition to the great recipes in his accompanying cookbook, The Prevent and Reverse Heart Disease Cookbook: Over 125 Delicious, Life-Changing, Plant-Based Recipes, here are a few recipes that meet Dr. Esselstyn’s guidelines that we make almost every week, …
My Aunt Cathy sent me a version of this recipe a few weeks ago and said she has added things to it but it just doesn’t seem right… it needs something to make it “just right”. CHALLENGE ACCEPTED. I LOVE messing with recipes. I love trying to figure out what’s missing, and knowing my Aunt …
My dear friend gave me this Le Cruset dutch oven a week ago, and I’ve been dreaming of all the things I can make it in every night since. It looks gorgeous on my stove. It cooks beautifully. I may have fantasized about hugging it while I sleep. Ahem. Anyway. I used it for this …
