Black Eyed Pea Salad
September 4, 2012 – 8:08 am
I was in the mood for a new salad, since I tend to stick with the same old combination. I tossed black eyed peas with other robust flavors such as garlic sun-dried tomatoes, lemon, and parsley. The fiber and protein-rich black eyed peas make this salad worthy of an entire meal. Enjoy!
Deconstructed Lasagna Hors D’oeuvres
August 21, 2012 – 9:39 am
A cute way to serve lasagna without the whole production. This recipe is open to many variations, so go crazy on it. I used 4 ingredients and made it simple, but entertaining nonetheless. These make for a great snack or appetizer. Enjoy!
Eggplant & Tomato Tahini Twist
December 28, 2011 – 8:49 am
There are few things I wouldn’t put tahini on. This recipe is an acceptable pairing, but you should just see the ways I’ve found an excuse to use tahini. From breakfast to dessert, it has become a mainstay these days. Last night I mixed the tahini with honey and melted chocolate and ate it by [...]

Roasted Garlic Hummus
July 1, 2011 – 2:32 pm
What’s not to like about hummus? It’s deeply satisfying, nutritious and an all-around crowd pleaser. And while few people, I among them, ever get sick of the go-to version, it’s always fun to try some new things (have you tried my roasted red pepper hummus?) Tonight I was in the mood for a rounder flavor, [...]
Raw Zucchini Pasta w/ Marinara
January 24, 2011 – 10:01 pm
My favorite raw dish by far is zucchini pasta. It’s just so damn fun to make. Very few people have tried zucchini in its raw state, and it’s actually quite soft and slightly sweet–not crunchy or uncomfortable to eat in the least! Sure, it’s no white flour pasta, but it’s delicious in its own right [...]
