Zucchini Pasta

zucchini pasta

Unless you have the knife skills of a Top Chef Master, you will probably have to get a vegetable spiralizer for this recipe. I got the idea to do zucchini “noodles” from Lexie’s Kitchen, one of my favoite blogs. Of course, this meant adding yet another contraption to our jam-packed tiny kitchen, but it [...]

Lite Raspberry Sorbet

raspberry sorbet

The stevia streak continues, this time with a little flavor boost: vanilla. I’ve tried stevia in ice cream before with not so great results, so this raspberry ice cream — sorbet? sherbert? — came as a pleasant surprise to me. It had just the right amount of sweetness, no bitter aftertaste (my toughest dessert [...]

Chocolate Mocha Ice Cream

Chocolate Mocha Ice Cream

This recipe was made possible by my future mother-in-law, who took a cue from my post about not having an ice cream maker and bought me one as a shower gift. I was so excited to get back to New York to start using it. There was one point in time where I thought ice cream [...]

I usually make a jicama salad with mango and mint. But grapefruit is in season and mango is a little harder to find [...]

Caesar salad is one of those ubiquitous menu items. It ranges anywhere from a pre-packaged container of stale croutons and wilted lettuce at the airport to the real good stuff that’s tossed tableside, to order, at the best Italian restaurants. As a result, the legitimacy of any given Caesar is sometimes questioned, let alone [...]

Cran-Raspberry Tart

cran-raspberry tart

I love this recipe because it’s the perfect mix of tart and sweeet. I originally tried this recipe with blueberries, then with cherries, but ultimately, the tart mix of cranberry and sweet, unmistakable flavor of raspberry is the best combination. Add the earthy, spicy cinnamon in the crust, and you’re in tart heaven. I would also [...]

Raw, Grain-free, Vegan Sushi Rolls

raw sushi vegan

Let me first apologize to those sushi purists out there who object to anything rice-free being called sushi (which literally means “vinegared rice,” not “ground nut and vegetable thing”). I am sincerely sorry. Second, let me apologize to those raw purists for calling this dish “raw” even though the recipe calls for a teaspoon of toasted [...]
