Avocado Cilantro Dressing

Avocado cilantro dressing can be used with crackers, salads, or as a raw vegetable dip. Plus you can use it on a wrap or sandwich instead of mayonnaise. The recipe as is will be thick but you can thin it by adding more water. The key as we know is finding that perfect ripeness of the avocado. And when you do, it's magic. I love garlic so you can adjust accordingly if you want more. My husband doesn't love it as much as I so I compromise with 2 cloves! Avocados are not only delicious but an important source of healthy fat great for adults and babies! It helps…

Cabbage Roll Soup

Cabbage roll soup brings back so many memories of my mom's stuffed cabbage rolls or Golumpki. Golumpki is a traditional Polish dish and a labor of love. My dad was Polish and my mom was Czech so we had lots of great food to experience. I don’t know about your family, but my family bonded over food. Do you ever feel kinda yucky and you want your mom’s homemade chicken soup? Or smell corn beef and cabbage and remember New Year’s Day with your grandparents? Food often brings families together! I know I love making my mother’s cookies (with modifications) for Christmas and sharing our memories of her…

Black bean mango quinoa salad is my go-to for lunch. Why do I love this, let me count the ways...mangos, avocado, cilantro, etc are a few reasons! Because quinoa is a complete protein, you can serve it as your main meal. There are so many health and environmental benefits to eating quinoa. I love incorporating quinoa dishes into my week as it digests easily which keeps me feeling energized. It's a great Meatless Monday (or Tuesday, Wednesday, etc) option to make the transition to eating less meat. As always, purchase organic in everything when possible. Approximately 90% of everything we purchase is organic or grown naturally. It's how…

Black Bean Quinoa

If you are looking for two great sources of protein, black bean quinoa is it. We are not vegan but do choose to have several meals each week that are meatless. We substitute meat protein with plants such as quinoa and black beans. The best part of quinoa is that it is a complete protein! Meaning you receive all the necessary amino acids from it unlike other plant proteins. As always, use organic products when possible to reduce pesticide/herbicide exposure. We are not overweight, but we are over toxic! We served this at our Grand Opening of my wellness center this week (June 2014) and it was a huge…

The hardest part for my clients is giving up sugar, sweets, and desserts. So I like to offer alternatives to dessert that contains cleaner ingredients. Most cakes, cookies, or any sweets contain either genetically engineered corn syrup or hydrogenated oils on top of high amounts of sugar. Strawberry energy bites are a wonderful healthy guilt-free treat you can feel good about putting in your body! Incorporating fruit or other plants is always the best choice with desserts. Strawberries contain a broad array of nutritional benefits. Strawberries are packed with vitamins and minerals such as vitamins C and K, folate, potassium, manganese, and magnesium. They are low-calorie, fiber-rich, and abundant…

Greek Quinoa Salad is one of my favorite dishes. I love anything Greek and Kalamata olives which is why I love this Greek Quinoa Salad. It's great as a side dish or a main. It's easy to make when you have limited time. Cooking quinoa in advance is one time-saving tip as it stores well in the refrigerator. I like to cook a bit extra and make breakfast quinoa. I buy Kalamata olives in gross at Costco. Well maybe it's just a huge jar but it is a lot when you are the only one in your household that loves them. Yes, I'm obsessed and happy to have…

Who says eating healthy is bland, difficult, or boring? Pistachio Non-Dairy Ice Cream is heavenly. I love pistachios. So paring them with frozen bananas to make what I call "nice cream" is delightful. This recipe is so simple, delicious, and can be a bit addictive. The recipe is from the Hungrier for Health recipe book and I made a few adjustments to it as it called for using a juicer (which I don't have). The recipe book contains 127 recipes that are gluten-free, dairy-free, vegan, kosher, and delicious. This is an excellent resource if you know someone with cancer or other chronic diseases. The author is Susan Silberstein,…
