Grilled Artichokes with Garlic Lemon Aioli
The perfect summer recipe! Finishing off artichokes on the grill is the BEST. It lends a crispy texture & a smoky flavor. The aioli finishes them off perfectly.
Grilled Eggplant with Lemon and Garlic
My Great Aunt, Vangelica, who we always called Lella Ginda, made an eggplant dish similar to this one. She dusted eggplant slices with flour and fried them and then layered them with great amounts of lemon and garlic. I always loved it and have made it several times. This time I took the eggplant out of the frying pan and on to the grill ...

No frills or fancy ingredients, just a simple "Dalmatian" seasoning of coarse salt, freshly cracked pepper and olive oil rubbed all over.

Homemade Coconut Milk
Grapes and Capers Salad
Super sweet red grapes pair with salty capers in an addictive way. A sprinkle of parsley adds a pleasantly clean note, but this salad is equally delightful without it.
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.
sauteed brussels sprouts without a recipe
I know it's Spring, but there were some beautiful organic brussels sprouts in the market which I couldn't pass up. But, since it *is* Spring, I didn't want to roast them as a winter vegetable. I decided to stir-fry them as I would any spring vegetable, with some olive oil and a little spice. Quartering the sprouts results in lots of loose leaves which crisp up beautifully while the centers get silky. The whole thing took 15 minutes to whip up and was completely gobbled up in 2 by the twin teens. I used a half pound of Brussels sprouts, you can use as much as you want to feed more people!
Sugar Snap Pea Salad
In this unusual summer salad, funky, creamy Camembert and crisp, juicy sugar snap peas unite make a texturally complex and very flavorful dish. You can use any washed rind cheese here as long as it’s ripe enough to be spread on a plate. If you can’t find a gooey-centered cheese, you can substitute a creamy goat cheese instead. Pea shoots make an ideal garnish, echoing the flavor of the sugar snaps, but if you can’t get them, use any baby green or micro green in its place. If you want to work ahead, you can blanch the peas and mix up the dressing several hours ahead. But don’t combine the salad ingredients until just before serving. In this dish, freshness is key.
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.

A Healthy Snack – Roasted Lentils

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!
Grilled Peach Salad
Quick, easy and flavorful are the key words to summer sides! I was grilling a pork tenderloin one night and wanted something to go with it that was as little work as possible with the most flavor, this is it for sure!!!!
Wild Pilaf with Lemony Spruce Tips and Pine Nuts
The wild in this recipe isnt from wild rice, its comes from the lemony spruce tips, that pair beautifully with toasted nuts, such as pine nuts or pistachios. They add flavor and sparkle to your basic side dish. Adapted from Chef Mads Refslund, co-founder of NOMA.
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.

A Piece-a Pizza Corn!
This is sort of a silly recipe, but a fun way to use the corn which we will no doubt be up to our ears in within the next couple of months (pun 100% intended). The proportions can easily be adjusted to your liking. The finished product is ultimately an interplay of sweet corn, tangy tomato, and salty cheese - and tastes almost like a piece of pizza!
