I call it risotto because it’s more than just rice, I like the ring of “arugula pesto risotto”, and it has that creaminess and stickiness reminiscent of the traditional Italian dish.

Crunchy and full of flavor, kale chips can take the place of your packaged dead potato chips. It’s a super-food that’s super simple to prepare.

It’s really hard to find a good prepared polenta crust for pizza, yet it’s soooo easy to make. People get intimidated by polenta because they think they have to stand over the stove stirring constantly for an hour and who has time for that?

This is a perfect breakfast to have on a cold winter day. Toasted buckwheat porridge, or kasha as it’s called in Eastern Europe, is actually a seed and because it’s not a grain, it contains no gluten so people with wheat sensitivities or allergies can usually eat buckwheat.

Simple to whip up in a food processor, these banana almond crunch date squares will provide you with an energy boost and a powerful pick-me-up between meals.

This is one of my ultimate favorite comforting soups on a cold fall or winter day. A simple dreamy creamy cleansing vegan soup, made rich and nourishing by blending in sweet yams and cashews.
