Te dije un poco sobre tus alimentos cuando compartí mi receta para mi espinacas alcachofa pan plano en forma pizza. I said then that I would do a full review of the company and here it is! Let Thy Food is a company founded by Christina and Jeremy Bartel who have a passion for […]
I’ve been working on this e-book for over 2 years and it’s finally done. Every Chanukah and then every Rosh Hashanah, I’d plan to have this book done but things came up and life got busy. Yesterday when I sat down to write my articles for One Green Planet, their web site was down and […]

Steak used to be one of my favorite foods. Como un niño, I would go with my mother to the butcher and she taught me, like her father taught her, how to pick the best cuts. Anytime I was in a restaurant, even if the menu had a million choices, my only choice was between […]
This is my new favorite salad. If I could only ever have one kind of salad again for the rest of my life, it would be this one. Ante todo, it’s the prettiest salad I’ve ever made. It’s filled with all different colors from the greens, the red cabbage, the carrots, the red onions […]
A scientist, a record store owner and a nutritionist walk into a kitchen…sounds like the beginning of a joke but instead it’s actually the beginning of a great company called Punk Rawk Labs. Punk Rawk Labs is a woman-owned, Minnesota-based company formed in 2010. It was created when one of the founders, Alissa, had a […]
Last night I was trying to think of what to make for dinner. When I can’t decide, I try to narrow it down – which ethnicity? which ingredients? comfort food or healthy? saucy or not sauce? Yesterday, I was feeling like Butler Foods soy curls but not saucy. Not a stew or soup. I wanted […]
Últimamente, I’ve been craving pizza. Mucha. But I didn’t want to make a giant pie with yeast and kneading and the oven. I wanted pizza that was quick, easy and cooked on the stove top. Y crujiente. I like my pizza crispy as opposed to chewy. That’s where flatbread pizza comes in. I’ve shared […]
When I first read about Hilary’s Eat Well and their products, I wanted to try them so badly. The kind people at Hilary’s sent me coupons but there was no place in my town that sold their products. About a year later, they sent me more coupons (mine had expired) and two of their salad […]
It’s fall. Verano! Fall is my favorite season. The leaves are already changing colors and floating to the ground. Every day Tom brings me in a beautiful leaf or two that he finds on his walks with Benny. It’s getting colder too and lately I’ve been craving soup. I’m loving the combination of tomatoes and […]
There is no love like that of a dog – unconditional, loyal and completely honest. The all-encompassing way I loved my dog, Poochie, stunned and nourished me every single day and when I lost her, it felt like my heart was forever broken. When we got Benny, I honestly didn’t think I could love him […]
Últimamente, I’ve been on a roll of finding products that make me suddenly like foods I normally don’t. Tahini is one of those foods. I know I’m in the minority on this. Most people love tahini and put it in everything. I’ve just never liked the taste. It’s fine in hummus but on its own, […]
Whenever I have a vegan-versary or veggie-versary, I write an essay focusing on what veganism means to me, what struggles I work through or some other batch of feelings I need to express. Julio 21, 2015 marks 7 years to the day I watched “Conozca su carne,” stopped eating meat and began my vegan […]
Let me tell you about me and ice cream. Don’t expect a love story, aunque, because that’s not it. As a kid I liked ice cream. Of course I did; what child doesn’t like ice cream? But I didn’t love it. When the ice cream truck would drive by, la “Pop Goes the Weasel” […]
So many of the recipes I develop happen because I crave my mother’s cooking. All of a sudden, as if out of nowhere, this craving hits me and it’s powerful. It engages all my senses – I’m back in the kitchen and I can see her food on the stove, smell the delicious aroma, hear […]
If you know me from my blog posts, then you know I’m not a huge fan of chocolate and sweets. I’m much more of a savory girl. But if there were a chocolate that could change my mind, Madécasse is the company that makes it. The story of Madécasse is enough to make you fall […]
While I like to consider myself something of a tofu aficionado, I’m not so experienced using silken tofu. I think I used it once or twice while attempting tofu omelets and Matzoh Brei. But otherwise, I don’t think about using it too much. Now I’m trying to change that and learn my way around silken […]
This 4th of July, I had to get on the carrot dog bandwagon. I’ve seen pictures on social media of all these carrot dogs and they always look so good. So as the 4th of July approached, I started telling Tom about carrot dogs. He laughed at the idea, not thinking that carrots could become […]
