This is the delicious and creative meal that I thought I would make for dinner tonight: And this is how it turned out: Let's just say that the patties didn't really hold their shape... Still delicious 🙂 Shoutout to my dedicated reader Kathleen Lai! She has some sweet watches and her dinners are on point! …

Vodka Sauce
After a day of walking around town, enjoying the 80 degree weather, I was inspired to cook a fresh and healthy dinner. I took my cue from my favorite vegan cookbook, The Rawesome Vegan Cookbook. I made the homemade tomato sauce by soaking sun-dried tomatoes in water for half an hour. Then I blended the …
Starting and ending the day on a green note
I woke up this morning feeling green. Well my juice was certainly green: And somehow dinner ended up in the same shade of the rainbow: Zucchini noodles with pesto and rice (plus a little avocado on the side)
I didn’t feel like cooking again
I'm getting ready for our studio's yoga retreat this weekend in the Dominican Republic and I haven't felt like cooking. I've been getting things in order before I leave, taking care of studio tasks and working on my upcoming June wedding. Creating recipes has certainly taken a back seat this week. So tonight was a grocery store …
When I Don’t Feel Like Cooking

Snow Day – Day 2
This morning we awoke to the aftermath of the blizzard: blue skies, bright sun and pristine white snow. The day started with another round of shoveling. But not before a delicious smoothie to fuel me for the morning. The studio was closed yesterday but we were able to open for one class this afternoon. Despite …
My First Snow
Well, my first snow in quite some time. If you live on the East coast then you have probably encountered a bit of snow over the past 24 hours. I woke up this morning in Central New Jersey with a backyard full of snow and a driveway ready to shovel. I haven't experienced this type …
Taking Advantage of Nice Weather
"The coldest winter I ever saw was the summer I spent in San Francisco." Mark Twain Walking around San Francisco people are wearing winter coats, hats and scarves. However, they are plenty over dressed for the balmy 50 degree weather we are experiencing. Back in New Jersey it's below freezing, but here in the bay area it …
