Just like the mint, we have an abundance of fresh chives in our garden…TONS of it! So, I decided to incorporate chives into a dish for a late lunch that I had today.

Raw Raspberry Crumb Bars
Does anyone know how to make a carton of berries last more than a day? Is that even a thing? Because I don’t know in the slightest. Whether I get a tiny carton of berries from the grocery store or a mega-sized box of berries from Costco, I cannot seem to make it last more than one…
Prosciutto & Asparagus Frittata
Mmmm, mmmm frittata. I recently found “The Chopped Cookbook” by the Food Network in my local library. I am addicted to watching the show “Chopped,” so naturally, I had to check out this cookbook. For those of you who don’t know, “Chopped” is a show on the Food Network, in which there are four contestants…
Beet and Microgreen Salad with Grapefruit Vinaigrette
Recently I discovered a small winter farmers’ market located at a local garden store. The farmers’ market consists of only about ten booths and occurs every Saturday. There is one booth that sells decadent baked goods such as chocolate croissants and lemon tarts. Another booth sells delicious and fresh homemade pasta including bourbon lobster stuffed ravioli and…
Pineapple Coconut Energy Bites
There seems to be some hope that this bitter cold winter will end sometime soon. The temperature has gotten a little bit warmer. Yesterday was a high of 37 degrees and the sun was shining bright, which felt like spring to everyone. But even so, if you look around Boston you can still see the…
Veggie Quinoa Maki
Nothing gets my mouth watering like a piece of sushi. I love all kinds of sushi, fish or vegetarian. There is something that gets me with the salty, chewy seaweed wrapped around the sweet and sour rice or quinoa that engulfs a variety of crunchy and creamy vegetables on the inside. Yummmmmmmm!
Miso Ramen Noodle Soup
It’s been a little while since my last post because it has been pretty busy lately. Since I last posted, I officially completed my applications to graduate school. Yay. I am now crossing my fingers and hoping I get in…please, oh please!
Raw Carrot “Pasta” with Spinach and Coconut Curry Sauce
Boy, did I need a clean healthy meal after all the junk food I ate during the holidays. Today was the first day that I did not allow myself to eat the leftover peppermint bark from Christmas, the pecan brittle sent from my family down South, or any of the delicious homemade cookies from our…
Thai Quinoa Salad with Peanut Sauce
I first fell in love with Thai food the summer after eighth grade. That summer, I started and finished all seasons of the show “The OC.” In that show, the family always ordered Pad Thai for dinner. So naturally, if the Cohen family loved it, I had to try it. I ordered the dish…
Tofu Tacos with Spinach, Avocado, and Pepper Jack
For some reason, I have had a weird craving for tacos lately. Tacos of all sorts. Fish tacos, chickpea tacos, veggie tacos, shrimp tacos, mushroom tacos, and of course, tofu tacos. So naturally I invested in a whole pack of some mini corn tortillas, which is hard to eat entirely by yourself unless you’re eating…
