I haven’t posted in over two weeks because I’ve been so busy with graduation activities. I graduated from Boston University in December with a Bachelor’s Degree in Health Sciences (concentrating in Public Health) but, my school did not offer a graduation ceremony then. So, I participated in the all-university commencement and individual school graduation ceremony…

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…
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…
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…

‘Tis the season for pumpkin! And I am ohh soo excited. Pumpkin is one of my favorite seasonal foods. I love how you can have it sweet or savory! So far this season, I have only made sweet pumpkin things but I am looking forward to making some savory dishes with a small sugar pumpkin…
Tropical Popsicles
I made these smoothie pops about two weeks ago when it was a beautiful summer-like day in early September. I was trying to hold on to summer for as long as I could. Even though I was back at school and had already started classes, the weather made it feel like summer was still here!…
Summer Squash Spaghetti with Mushrooms, Broccolini, and Sun-Dried Tomatoes
About a month ago, it was my birthday. I asked my dad for a vegetable noodle maker because I kept seeing recipes around for vegetable noodles and they all looked so delicious. Well, when my birthday came around, that is exactly what he got me. I was so excited to use it. The summer…
Detox Smoothie
This was the first thing I made after getting home from backpacking throughout Europe for 3 months. A green smoothie. How I missed green smoothies. There were certainly some places in Europe that sold green smoothies, but nothing like the ones that I make at home. After eating so much cheese, bread, pasta, meat, ice…
Peach and Mozzarella Balsamic Salad
Over the summer I was in Athens, Greece. While we were in Athens, we went to this cute beach bar and got some lunch. I ordered a arugula salad topped with grilled peaches and mozzarella cheese and a honey vinaigrette. It was delicious. With the mediterranean sea 10 feet away and a delicious salad…
