Pizza Night

When Andrew and I first got married and were living in Hawaii we instated Friday Pizza and a movie night. We got the idea (and recipe) from the book Animal, Vegetable, Miracle by Barbara Kingsolver which if you haven’t read you really should. It’s a great book about food, eating with the seasons and growing our […]

If you don’t follow me on Facebook, you should. Just click here. I first tried Kombucha when I was living in NYC managing a health club and going […]

Paleo Rice. Too good to be true?

Well. That depends who you ask. If you’re not a rice snob then paleo rice is a great alternative. But I’m kind of a food snob, and rice is no exception. Rice is a diet staple where I grew up in the Dominican Republic. It’s cooked with salt and olive oil (which is why it’s […]

Paleo Golden Beet Fritters

I try very hard to get Annabelle to eat her veggies. One of the easiest ways is in the form of a pancake. Pancakes made with sprouted or whole wheat seem to work pretty well, her current favorite is the ‘green pancake’ which is really just a sprouted wheat pancake mix with pureed fresh spinach […]

Healthy Toddler Snacks

Recently I’ve been on a mission to put together a list of healthy, non-processed toddler snacks. I was inspired by a friend who made a New Years resolution to not feed her toddler any processed food. What a fabulous idea, why didn’t I think of that? I try to stay away from processed as much […]

Awesome Coconut Breakfast Bars

In an attempt to get my now VERY picky eater to eat breakfast I’ve found myself having to get creative in the kitchen. My little chipmunk who was once content eating goat milk yogurt sprinkled with cinnamon for breakfast has become very hard to please. Suddenly hard boiled eggs, yogurt, oatmeal and fruit are not good […]

Sunday Breakfast

I’m always looking for a good Sunday morning breakfast. Our usual standby is scrambled eggs and whole wheat apple pancakes but I like to change it up every once in a while. We tend to spend Sunday mornings at home, sleeping in, lounging around in our pjs and having a yummy hot breakfast. Sunday breakfasts usually […]

Decadent Chocolate Pudding (made with avocado!!)

I’m a chocoholic. Annabelle will do anything for some good guacamole (especially from Chipotle). Put our two loves together and you’ve got Avocado Chocolate Pudding. Sound disgusting? I promise it’s actually delicious, even Andrew approved. You probably won’t believe me until you try it though. I found a recipe for chocolate frosting using avocado when […]
