Vegan (GF) Alfredo Plated

Creamy Plant-based Cauliflower Alfredo (GF)! 5 ingredients and NO yeast flakes make this a simple and pleasing prep. Luscious, velvety texture and ultra-creamy taste combine to make an opulent, dairy-free version of this Italian classic. Where Does Fettuccine Alfredo Derive Its Name?

Blueberry Peach Chia Jam (Gluten-Free, Vegan/Plant-Based, RSF)

August 10, 2015 By Jana 2 Comments

Blueberry Peach Chia Jam

Fresh jam in 20 minutes - no pectin, no gelatin, no canning, no fuss. . . The other day I was gathering the usual suspects for a typical breakfast for my selective eater. Gluten-free bread-check, organic peanut butter-check, Red Star Yeast Flakes for all of those B-vitamins-check, and jam-chhhhh-no check! Usually I keep backups in the pantry of all of the items that we use on a regular basis, yet somehow this one had fallen through the cracks on the last grocery list. No jelly! I didn't feel ...

Sweety Drop Pepper Cucumber Salad

August 5, 2015 By Jana 2 Comments

Cucumber Salad Plated

You're only five minutes away from being cool as a cucumber--and likely surprised by one too. When I first decided to do a post on a cucumber salad my motivation was to provide a recipe for a side dish that was quick, easy, and highly customizable. Let's face it--it's much easier to maintain a healthy diet when the recipes don't place a lot of demands on time or energy! Cucumbers are a Great Source of Hydration When I can, I try to provide information on the nutritional benefits of the ...

Apple Cake Muffins (Gluten-Free, Vegan, Refined Sugar-Free)

July 31, 2015 By Jana 23 Comments

A culinary miracle! Apple Cake Muffins that are gluten-free, vegan, refined sugar-free, and oil free, but still bursting with flavor and richness. Much like their traditional predecessor--German Apfelkuchen--these muffins are moist and delicious! Apple Cake Muffins Such a perfect marriage of flavor and texture that I really couldn't have chosen any other name. I've been feeling a bit nostalgic of my connection with Germany lately. Can you tell? My last post was a strudel and this ...

Simple Sweet Veggie Breakfast (Gluten-Free, Vegan, No Sugar Added)

June 17, 2015 By Jana Leave a Comment

Veggies for breakfast? Huh? I was raised on pancakes, oatmeal, cereal and toast with jelly. As much as I have come to adore vegetables--for lunch or dinner there is nothing better--I still struggle with incorporating them into my breakfast.  Every day more research is presented on the value of a plant-based diet. Since most veggies are not complete proteins we need to eat a large variety to assure that we are meeting the full amino acid profile. Incorporating vegetables as often as possible is a ...

Product Review: The Good Bean Crispy Crunchy Chickpeas (Sweet Cinnamon)

March 25, 2015 By Jana Leave a Comment

Good Bean Chickpeas

Poor chick peas.  The long ignored legume on every Ruby Tuesday salad bar across the country. It wasn't until hummus became the darling of the restaurant industry that people even paid remote attention to this delicious and nutrient-rich delight. For those of you reluctant to try chick peas for whatever reason (say, finicky children or someone who only associates them with hummus) The Good Bean's Crispy Crunchy Chickpeas might be the perfect place to start. The Good Bean gets the texture ...

There is no thrill quite like opening a new cookbo There is no thrill quite like opening a new cookbook for the first time! Akin to exploring an uncharted destination; the possibilities are endless! As the title of this culinary masterpiece by Gina Zarcadoolas reads,"Cuisines, Corkscrews, & Cultures: A Treasury of Recipes, Wine Pairings, and Travel Lifestyles", the discovery is no longer metaphorical! Gina graciously includes us in her global travels while sharing a treasury of cultural recipes and wine pairing suggestions!
🍽
I was so excited to make "Gina's Naughty Spaghetti alla Puttanesca" (pictured above), and it did not disappoint! The well-crafted combination of gratifying flavors played out in a symphony of color and textures. As many of you know, I eat a plant-based diet. By no means does that mean I can't enjoy all of the delightful combinations of ingredients that Gina employs in her phenomenal recipes. Sometimes it just means a quick and easy substitution. For example, in this lovely Puttanesca, I merely substituted plant-based meat for the anchovies. To maintain the taste of the sea, a small addition of seaweed does the trick!
🍽
With the holidays fast approaching, I am always on the lookout for great gift ideas. Gina's cookbook, and all it has to offer, would definitely make a lovely present to bestow! You can find Gina and her cookbook @foodieandwinelover
Sometimes no plan is the plan! At least that was t Sometimes no plan is the plan! At least that was the case this weekend as I traveled down the apropos named "Road to Nowhere"--alternatively Corridor H in West Virginia. Resistant to abandon my plans to study for the day as I eagerly look forward to completing my continuing education and additional certifications in nutrition and wellness.
🍁
After some convincing I acquiesced. I've spent much of my life in two of the neighboring states to West Virginia, but my travels there rest solidly in the single digits. Once firmly afoot the gorgeous Appalachian Mountains, I realized a deficit in my life. Air--fresh air. Breaths--slow and deep. Healing--quieting stress in mind and body.
🍁
Looking around I knew it was important to capture this moment. A reminder. Grabbing my phone that had long since disconnected itself from cyberspace, I began snapping pictures. The leaves are turning, the wind turbines are spinning, and the colors are amazing. I've shared a couple above if you'd like a taste.
🍁
I am a planner and, "A goal without a plan is just a wish." Antoine de Saint-Exupéry. But on this day letting go of the plan was the best plan of all! So tell me, are you a planner?? Do you plan not to plan?? How do you unplug? Have you taken a ride on the road to nowhere?
Looking for some fantastic cookbook recommendation Looking for some fantastic cookbook recommendations?!

Today’s IG Live is all about herbs! They can wor Today’s IG Live is all about herbs! They can work culinary miracles when it comes to changing a flavor profile! But did you know they also amp up the nutrient value of your dish? A tablespoon of parsley has 8% of your Daily Value of vitamin C and can be a natural diuretic. Many herbs contain antioxidants and can act as anti-inflammatory agents. If you don't already love herbs, you will after you watch the live chat I had with Lori Corbin. Along with nutritional benefits, we talk about how to store, use, and even grow your own! Lori provides great tips for growing herbs inside and out! If you missed it, be sure to check out the replay on @LoriCorbinTV . What is your favorite herb(s), and how often do you use it?? Let me know in the comments below! 🌱🥰🌱😋
