AFTERMATH: My Fry’s Red Wheat Bakery Steak Sandwich
God forbid I don’t share this with you. This is where it’s not rocket science, it’s just quality ingredients and taking the time to cook 2 of them to perfection. It’s not hard, it’s just food of love. This is Slow Food my way.
Please Sir, More Chocolate Cake!
Once you have tasted this delicious homemade chocolate cake you will never buy a packet cake again or a supermarket cake for that matter.

Strawberry Lemonade
Pink lemonade? Forget about flavor crystals with artificial color and evil aspartame. This simple homemade version is so light and clean, so good and so good for you, you’ll want to have a pitcher in the fridge for the rest of the summer.
Savory Raw Carrot Pate

Holy Peachy Guacamole!

Choc Chip Oat Cookies
Ever get a craving for something chocolatey chippy and oatmealy but not too sweet, fairly substantial and actually good for you? You can throw theses chocolate chip oat cookies together in ten minutes!
Mellow Melon Smoothie
Drink in the mellow goodness of summer with this thick and creamy smoothie that refreshingly fills the gap between meals – or even replaces one. I had this before a workout and was fully energized without feeling full.
Sweet Potato Swooning
This is one of my all-time favorite winter soups. It’s rich and creamy and sweet and dense with sweet potatoes and coconut milk with a balance of brightness from ginger and lime.
