Ginger Oatmeal Mini Scones with Walnuts
These little treats are satisfying with a great, spicy punch from the crystallized ginger. If they are not going to be eaten within a day, I would freeze them for later because they may get hard fairly quickly. The best part about these scones is that they are vegan and small, so you can eat […]
Dojo’s Soy Burger Dinner
My favorite restaurant growing up was Dojo in the East Village. It served the phenomenal Soy Burger Dinner with the INSANE carrot ginger dressing that remained $3.95 for decades! I ate there as a middle schooler (what we called Junior high), a High Schooler, a college student, a social worker and then a pregnant mom. […]
Gluten Free Almond Orange Cookies
Hello Everyone! I am hoping that you won’t make fun of me for calling the following recipe “cookies”. Sometimes I think it best to refer to a food item as something other than what we’re trying to emulate, if it’s features are far from the original item. Like balls of healthy stuff. I am, however, […]

Hello all! I forgot to plant herbs this year so I was extra excited when my friend Tim once again gave me his overload of garden delights. I’m talking chives, rosemary, basil, thyme, sage and even some tomatoes! I brought a large stash with me on vacation and incorporated some of them into a dish […]
Bingeing On Healthy Food
Some of us, sometimes, binge. I know I do. I recently met a cookbook author who was hell bent on sharing the info that if we just make a slight mental shift, we can binge but not necessarily set ourselves into a tailspin of eating garbage for the rest of the day, night, week or […]
Curried Coconut Root Vegetable Porridge
Hello food and recipe seekers, Get ready for a really tasty and comforting porridge. I made this last week for a soup swap that required the soups to be both vegan and gluten free. My friend who hosted lives a vegan lifestyle and does not push it on others. What she does do, however, is […]
Quinoa with Cinnamon, Fennel and Prunes and Food, Technology and Labeling
Happy new year, everyone! I will cut to the chase: 2018 sucked in many ways for me and for many others. I don’t like to be negative but I’m just putting it out there because as Socrates says, “An unexamined life is not worth living”. We need to deal with the crap that is presented […]
