Superfood Overnight Oats with Almonds and Goji Berries
For those that are always on the go, this is a perfect make-ahead breakfast. Combine all ingredients in a mason jar, let it sit overnight in the fridge, and in the morning grab a spoon and your breakfast and you're ready to go! Toppings are endless, so feel free to change it up everyday. Superfoods give you large doses of antioxidants, polyphenols, vitamins, and minerals; oats for fiber; raw cacao for additional antioxidants; and maca for a boost in energy and stamina to get you going through your mornings as it is rich in vitamin B vitamins, C, and E and provides plenty of calcium, zinc, iron, magnesium, phosphorous and amino acids.
Yogurt With Mixed Seeds, Toasted Oatmeal and Ginger Syrup
The inspiration for this breakfast yogurt comes mainly from an amazing breakfast yogurt and fruit bowl I had at the Elizabeth Street Café, a Vietnamese-French bakery and restaurant in Austin, Tex. Its baker, Jennifer Tucker, is exceptionally talented: Anyone who can pull off croissants that incorporate whole-wheat flour and seeds while remaining flaky, light, and small has my immediate attention. The cafe’s morning yogurt bowl includes an unusual granola made with steel-cut oats, macadamia nuts, and ginger; fresh fruit; and a delicious ginger-palm sugar syrup. Jennifer was kind enough to share her recipes for the granola and the ginger palm sugar syrup (I’m using only the syrup recipe here, but I’m sure you’ll see the granola in a future Recipes for Health). The seed mix you should make in quantity and keep on hand for adding not just to your morning yogurt, but to salads, baked goods, just about anything. I soak the seeds, then dry them for a day in a very low oven. The ginger syrup keeps well and it too is great to have on hand.
Cold Strawberry Soup or Sorbet with Pomegranate Molasses
Organic strawberries were on sale at my local food co-op, and I had some pomegranate molasses to use up, so I started experimenting and found that blending optimizes the flavors of the individual ingredients.
roasted sweet bell pepper salad
a famiglia tradition for years, this is one of my favorite summer recipes to eat with pretty much any protein or vegetable sides.
A Healthy Snack – Roasted Lentils
One of my favorite snacks during Indian picnic was tareli dal – fried lentils mixed with cilantro, lime juice and onions. The roasted recipe tastes as good.
Gingery Beet Smoothie
I have never been terribly into vegetables in smoothies (or that into smoothies, actually), but a friend and co-worker brought a beet smoothie into a meeting the other day, and I was so intrigued I got some instructions from her and then made my own version to try. It's different, but I like it!
Caribbean Coconut Milk Corn on the Cob
This is my dad's recipe from Trinidad. While my mom did most of the cooking, it was my dad's job to make corn on the cob. He did so perfectly in coconut milk.
Raw Vegan Cauliflower Tabbouleh
This is my go-to dish for last-minute party dishes. Don't need to turn on the oven or stove. Made with simple ingredients and so refreshing. A definite crowd pleaser! Make the dish ahead of time to allow the salad to marinate in the dressing. Tastes better as it sits in the fridge. Added boost of protein: hemp seeds.
5-Ingredient Broccoli Stem and Kale Salad with Toasted Hazelnuts:
Don't know what to do with those broccoli stems? Make this refreshing, crunchy, spring or summer salad to share at your next family picnic or gathering. Just 5 main ingredients and can be whipped up in 30 minutes or less!! Freshly roasted hazelnuts add an extra crunch element to the salad.
Persimmon Ice Cream. No Dairy, No Sugar, No Time. Fast Fast Fast!
Nothing can be quicker or easier than this Persimmon Ice Cream recipe. Yes, I'm calling it ice cream even though it contains no cream and only two ingredients!

Raw Buckwheat & Turmeric Porridge
This is a super easy, healthy and quick breakfast. Soaked buckwheat, banana and a little turmeric is blended to creaminess and topped with whatever goodies you desire. It is great made ahead, and can be packed into a jar to take with you on the go. Not only is it incredibly filling, the turmeric and black pepper provide a boost to your immune system - as well as a gourgeous golden hue!
Sweet Corn Ice Cream
Nothing beats Colorado sweet corn! A dry climate means the corn is less watery, making each kernel pack a more sugary, corn-y punch. I like to serve a scoop of this ice cream on top of half a grilled peach!
The Perfect Summer Salad (Watermelon, Feta, Avocado, and Mint Salad)
A simple, easy, and beautiful construction of watermelon, feta, avocado, and mint adapted from a recipe I came across on Pinterest. This recipe serves 2 but adjust as needed for multiple servings. Mix all ingredients together in a bowl and serve at your next friend/party gathering!
Muhammara / Roasted Bell Pepper and Walnut Dip
Roasted bell pepper and walnut dip -specialty from Middle East
Raw White Corn and Arugula Salad
There is nothing better than sweet corn in the summer. This is a simple salad that features this warm weather staple. I love to make it as a side for barbecues and picnics.
Red Bean Topping (for Shaved Ice or Ice Cream)
Unlike red bean paste -- the smooth, mashed filling found in mooncakes, steamed buns, and mochi -- this is a red bean topping similar to the azuki bean topping used over Korean patbingsoo. The beans are largely intact, boiled tender in water and sugar, and preserved with syrup. It can be used to flavor ice cream or to top shaved ice (or both!)
Spiced Walnut Meringues
These are lovely Walnut Meringue cookies, spiced with cloves & nutmeg, and studded with toasted walnut. The meringue in this recipe is a little squishy inside.
Ramps on Toast with Poached Egg and Ajvar
When I opened up Bon Appetit's April issue and saw a beautiful, open-faced sandwich of sauteed ramps and a poached egg, I had to recreate my own version. This recipe is based on the BA sandwich but with key modifications -- namely, the addition of Serbian "ajvar." Ajvar is my absolute favorite condiment of all time and its smoky, sweet quality plays well with the charred ramps and the luxurious egg yolk of a perfectly poached egg. If you can't find ajvar, substitute goat cheese, harissa, tapenade, salsa, or other condiment of choice. Either way, try this while ramps are still available.
Mustard Maple Walnut Salmon
The perfect combination of sweet and salty crunchy salmon fillets.
Walnut Nougat Bars
A great treat that is packed with healthy fats and carbs.
3-Ingredient Walnut Flourless Cake
I was a little skeptical that a flourless cake recipe could be made with three ingredients, but what a delight! The ground walnuts provide depth and texture.
Raw Vegan Pine Nut "Goat Cheese"
After years of fruitless (or cheeseless...) experimentation I've come up with this-- a pine nut-based raw vegan "goat cheese" that makes me not miss the real thing any more. Quite an accomplishment, if I do say so myself.
Springtime Sweet Potato Soup with Coconut and Lemongrass
A light, fresh soup with minimal ingredients. A splash of cider and perfume from lemongrass (or just a squeeze of lemon) make this a bowl of sunshine. Serve with Sriracha for those who want to add a little heat.
