Veggie Squash Noodles

This recipe will fill you up and then some.  It will probably leave you with a small fiber baby too. Spaghetti squash is pretty much the easiest squash to prep ever.  Literally all you do is hack it open, flip it so each half is face down in a pan with an inch of water. Simple enough, right?  No chopping, no peeling, no Jackie Chan knife skills required. Left: pre-oven; Right: after 50 minutes at 375. Scoop out the stringy flesh, and tupperware it up. Unless you are a squash whore, I’d recommend separating the… Read more >

Hummus and taxes

I’m pretty sure my version of the phrase is just as true (and not nearly as morbid).  I mean really, is there anything more certain in life than the fact that I’ll consume pounds and pounds of hummus?  No.  The burden of taxes, on the other hand, is a far less joyous inevitability. Kyle and I have nearly finished ours, though, so at least that will be one big check off the to-do list.  I have to say, moving to a different state and starting new jobs certainly made things more difficult this year.  Good… Read more >

Staples

I have more photos on my camera than I could possibly share. How about the staples? Pre-packed food – definitely necessary given the limited cafeteria options at 3 am. T.G.I.L. – thank goodness it’s leftovers because it made work prep come together in 5 minutes flat (Israeli couscous with raw cauliflower “rice”, cherry tomatoes, and spinach) Dessert – non-negotiable 🙂 [I ate this Kookie Karma holistic choco lot in the car on the way to work so I don’t have a photo, but it was dark, gooey, and utterly decadent – I will be buying… Read more >

Clean Start – meet Terry and win her cookbook

I have raved about her recipes many times on the blog before, so it should be no surprise that I am huge fan of Terry Walters’ Clean Food.  When I found out she was releasing a new cookbook, Clean Start, I was thrilled.  And when I was contacted about interviewing Terry herself, I could hardly contain my excitement! (!!!!!)  What I love about her recipes is that they feature whole foods in their purest form, with a focus on using what’s in season.  Just like Clean Food, her latest cookbook Clean Start is divided into… Read more >

Pa-pa-pa-pizza face

I probably like pizza just as much as the next person, however, it’s not a food I eat very option given the primary ingredient (cheese) doesn’t have a place in my diet.  But that’s no excuse (especially when cheese-less versions are just as delish and easy to make at home).    While attempting to fit all the latest Costco buys in the fridge/freezer, I came across this delish Udi’s pizza crust.  Sneaky bugger was hiding way in the back!   In case you missed my previous review of this product, I loved it. Udi’s pizza… Read more >
