Cashew Chicken Lettuce Wraps

Healthy Cashew Chicken Lettuce Wraps

December 28 by Priscilla 3 Comments

The holiday food frenzy is drawing to a close and I’m already psyching myself up for the inevitable New Year’s resolution to exercise more and spend less time in front of the computer and more time enjoying life and learning. Sadly, wisdom is not the only thing that comes with age and, while writing about […]

Shrimp and Pad Thai Noodles with Lime Sauce

Coconut Aminos for Paleo, Gluten Free and Low Sodium Cooking

September 29 by Priscilla 10 Comments

Love the salty umami­ of soy sauce but not the side effects of ingesting so much sodium – you know, those dreaded added pounds and bloat from water retention? Or maybe you’re following a Paleo, gluten-­free or low sodium diet and want or need to eliminate soy. The solution:  coconut aminos. For us, it’s the […]

Quinoa Stuffed Chile Rellenos-7557

Obsessed with Chiles: Quinoa Stuffed Chile Rellenos

August 5 by Priscilla 6 Comments

My obsession with chile rellenos lives on – it is how I measure every Mexican, Tex-Mex, or Southwestern restaurant that offers the dish on their menu, and if they don’t – shame on them! When I return from a trip, within a day or two my car finds its way to Great Mex in Costa […]

Sweet Potato Crostini

October 29 by Priscilla 16 Comments

What’s your go-to appetizer for a spontaneous get together? In our house it is…or was, crostini, that is until Don’s sodium restrictions required a closer look at how much bread we consumed. Believe it or not, bread is quite high in sodium – one slice contains anywhere from 160 milligrams to over 360 milligrams, depending […]

Kung Pao Tofu

Kung Pao Tofu

March 14 by Priscilla 27 Comments

I first made this deliciously spicy, sweet, savory Kung Pao Tofu last year when I decided to get on board with the Meatless Monday movement and cut out meat once a week. Did you know that cutting out meat just one day a week can reduce the risk of cancer and cardiovascular disease while saving […]

Chickpea Curry with Bolani

December 7 by Priscilla 16 Comments

We’ve all heard the saying “you are what you eat” and yesterday my post focused on a recent article about how, more than ever, food defines social class in America more than the clothes you wear or the car you drive. Basically, the food that is available and affordable to the vast majority of Americans […]

Blackmarket Bakery

September 29 by Priscilla 21 Comments

Last week I shared my Cabernet-crusted Chile Rellenos and promised to tell you more about a fascinating new product: Cabernet Wine Flour. I was uber excited that this modern take on my favorite classic Mexican dish received so many compliments and I’m here to give you the scoop on the cabernet flour that inspired it. […]

Roasted Asparagus

March 26 by Priscilla 2 Comments

Second in my series of super easy asparagus recipes; roasting asparagus, or any vegetable, brings out its natural sweetness. This is one time where thicker spears work better than thin ones so the asparagus doesn’t get tough and stringy. You can even make these in your toaster oven – I do.
