Vegetable Stir-fry with Polenta

Vegetable Stew with Polenta

Earth Day Portland What a glorious day today was. Quite appropriate for Earthday. I love Portland. As in most cities accross the US, Portland had its celebration of all good things for the earth, found locally, built sustainably, with respect to the earth and all its inhabitants, in music, artful displays, bringing together young and […]

black olive tapenade

OLIVE TAPENADE

Pronounced “tah-puh-nod”, this olive spread, is usually served as an appetizer on toasted sliced French baguette, crackers or fresh cut vegetables. It originates from the South of France. It is an olive spread, a form of caviar that captures the rich and natural essences of Provence, through the olives, the capers and the olive oil. […]

Miso soup

Miso – The Ultimate Radiation Shield

Even though, the news isn’t covering the situation in Japan as much as before, the dangers for residents in Japan and people around the world is no less because of it. While everyone is talking about taking iodine supplement, is there anything else we can do? I found out that there is something everyone can […]

tempeh bacon

Tempeh Bacon Strips

Spring is coming, soon summer will be here, so what better time to get ready for great sandwiches! This has to be one of the best use of tempeh I know. All the flavor and none of the saturated fat. Fat-free and cholesterol-free bacon, what an idea! This recipe is great for busy people because […]

Seaweed salad with sesame seeds

Nutritious Seaweed Salad

In honor of the people of Japan, I wanted to feature a seaweed salad. It is said that Japanese people have eaten sea vegetables for more than 10,000 years. Most seaweed, because it comes from the ocean offers the broadest spectrum of minerals of any food. It also contains a large range of amino acids […]

vegan oat crisp cookies

Oat Crisp Cookies

I have sampled my share of vegan cookies over the years and I have to say that most of the ones bought in stores tend to be a little heavy and doughey, until I discovered these little jewels. Light and cripsy on the outside and tender in the middle. Not too sweet, just the right […]

Polenta fries

Polenta Fries

Pronounced “Po-len-tah”, this native dish of Italy is made with ground yellow  cornmeal. Unlike grits, which is corn that has been soaked and processed to remove the tough outer hull, polenta has the hull and is therefore more nutritious and less processed. If you are tired of rice, pasta, quinoa or other grains, you can […]

vegan lemon tart

Vegan Lemon Tart

This is a wonderful refreshing summer dessert but it must be the lack of sun this time of the year that made me crave for lemons. I tried the lemon bar recipe from Isa Chandra Moskowitz’s Veganomicon and made it into a tart. Oh My God, it came out soooo good! So I thought I […]
