Nutty Szechuan Gluten Free Rice Noodles with Veggies
Saturday evening we had a friend over for dinner. The last time she came for dinner I totally screwed up what I had made… Oops. She was a doll about it, and said that it was delicious, but I know that it wasn’t great, to say the least. So this time, I wanted to make…
Chicken Salad (egg-free, dairy-free)
As you may know, I am a big fan of The Whole Life Nutrition Cookbook and Nourishing Meals dot com. Recently I was over there, reading Ali’s post, Chicken & Wild Rice Salad with Tangerines & Hazelnuts, which contains her method for cooking chicken. I have cooked chicken this way before, but accidentally simmered the…
How I make Ghee
Heat organic butter over low to medium heat, being careful not to burn, until all of the butter is melted. Put the pan in the freezer for about 4 minutes to solidify the foam (containing casein) on top. You may need to chill it a few minutes longer if you’re making a large amount. Pour…
Gluten-free at Boulder Farmers Market =)
Last week was the first week of the Boulder farmers market, and we noticed there are even more gluten-free options than there were last year. So, today we brought our camera and made a short video. A list of the places we stopped: Mama Mari’s Pupusas Two Moms in the Raw Medovina Colorado Honey Wine,…
Green Smoothies
First thing this morning we made some more green smoothies and drank them on the porch. I don’t think I ever make them the same way twice—Are you like that too with smoothies? I just can’t stop playing around with the ingredients and proportions =) Green Smoothies 2 cups packed fresh washed spinach 1 inch…
Cherry & Chocolate Hemp Shake
Some days (like today) I make Zoe and Ashley lunch, and they just aren’t in the mood to eat. So I blend them a smoothie or shake. Right now they are really into this little glass bottle that we are reusing. I think it came with 100% grape juice in it, but I can’t remember….
Pineapple & Coconut Quinoa
Around 3:30 my time today, someone on Twitter said that they were having pineapple and coconut rice for dinner. YUM. I decided to make a version for dinner myself, using quinoa in place of rice, since I avoid grains as much as possible. There are few times I have fallen so in love with a…

Raw Chocolate and (fake) Peanut butter Fondue
The weather has been sensational and so we have been outside non-stop; eating on the porch constantly. I feel invigorated by the mild temperatures, sunshine and blue skies. Tonight we had a terrific salad for dinner that was probably half walnuts and half lettuce. It also contained a good quarter cup of raw hemp seeds,…
