A lot of New Year’s resolutions revolve around eating healthier or losing weight.  I try to eat well but there are times of the year when I’ll admit that stress and poor planning gets the best of me and I find myself reaching for things that just shouldn’t be in my pantry… never mind my [...]

One of the kids in my life returned from Italy recently.  She went on a school trip to Italy with her high school.  The same school trip that I went on when I was in high school.  I’ll be entertained with her pictures tonight and I’m sure that one of the pictures will be the [...]

I cleaned out my freezer today and found a forgotten container full of frozen blackberries.  I had gone to visit a friend in the summer who grew blackberries and raspberries in their backyard and had completely forgotten that I had set aside a few pints to get me through the winter.  What a treat!  I [...]

I thought I would try my hand at a raw soup.  I tried a raw soup recipe a few years ago by a well-known raw foodist from his recipe book and it really didn’t appeal to me.  My taste buds have matured a bit since then and I’ve also discovered what tastes I enjoy and [...]

I made almond milk for the first time today.  I wanted the pulp to mix up a batch of raw almond cookies.  I don’t have a Vitamix or high powered blender which really would have made the process much easier.  I also didn’t have any cheese cloth so had a fun, albeit messy, time straining [...]

Today’s raw Christmas cookie requires a bit more work. I thought I had it a little too easy these past few days.  It’s still quite a bit less work than making the cooked counterpart so you’ll have plenty of time to whip this up as a last minute treat on your Christmas table. Enjoy! This [...]

I don’t know about you but I’m in the mood for a nice healthy smoothie today. While I’ve been posting quite a few sweets recipes lately, other than a bite to evaluate the recipe, I’ve been passing on most of the holiday treats this season. The best way to avoid the holiday bulge is not [...]

My kitchen is getting busier by the minute. Had a few unexpected guests for dinner this evening. Good thing I had a few trays of raw Christmas cookies to keep them satisfied while I whipped up dinner. In fact, they helped to make the newest recipe that hit my inbox as part of the FREE [...]

I’m back with another raw Christmas cookie recipe from the FREE 12-Days of Christmas Cookie mini-course. Today’s treat is Almond Crunch Bars. I was at my nephew’s birthday party this evening so I didn’t have time to try the recipe so you’ll need to give it a try and let me know if they’re as [...]
