Flavors of India: Aloo Palak (potato + spinach curry)
For more on the flavors of India series, check out: Dhal Aloo Kofta, Payasam Pudding, Gluten-free naan and Malai Kofta. Pure, natural, flavorful, colorful, exciting and rich are just some of the words that come to mind when I think about my food experience in India. All of the ingredients were straight from the source,…
Chewy Oatmeal Raisin Cookies
Out of all the things I missed while I was in India – hot showers, blankets (it’s too hot to sleep with any but I missed the cuddle factor), and my kitchen, cookies were at the top of the list. Always. If you’re not allergic to gluten, you can find countless biscuits and cookie-like treats…
Sketch Free Vegan: Fun with Blues!
Jaclyn and Jenn were the inspiration behind one of the blog’s most popular recipes, 100 calorie beary simple cookies. 7 months have passed since I made the first batch and they’re still made on a weekly basis around here. The thing I love most about Sketch Free Vegan Eating is their focus on simple ingredients…
Tasty Yummies: Gluten-free + Vegan Lentil “Meat” Loaf
I found Tasty Yummies over a year ago, right around the time I began Healthful Pursuit. In fact, Beth’s blog was the first to be added to my Google Reader; and later, the first to be posted to my blog roll. What can I say, she’s awesome! I’ve always been fascinated with Beth’s eye for…
Flavour Fiesta: Tandoori Salmon with Spinach, Cucumber and Pickled Onions
I love to surround myself with strong and confident individuals who have found their passion, trust their instincts, and believe in themselves. I guess it just helps me stay positive and stay on track? When I came across Divya and Flavour Fiesta, it was inspiration at first site. I knew I just had to reach…
Fork and Beans: Chocolate Smooches
With all the planning it took for me to get ready for India; not to mention all the meals I preparing for Kevin for while I was gone, I didn’t get much of a chance to think about Valentine’s Day baking. Thankfully, Cara took one for the team and came up with a deliciously creative…
Apple Pie Green Smoothie
I should be beaming with excitement at the thought of my 3 week adventure (by myself) to India in just 4 days. But I have to share something with you… this girl isn’t beaming as brightly as she should be! I haven’t exactly shared my feelings about this trip on the blog because; well, I…
Rise and Shine Muffins
While visiting London this past November, a couple of colleagues and I quickly developed a morning ritual of meeting at the Starbucks on Berkeley Street before heading in to the office. Since Starbucks doesn’t offer any gluten-free baked goods; and even if they did, I’m not sure I’d be inclined to pass up a homemade…
Beloved Layered Sirloin Bake
We’re down to the wire. I leave for India in less than a week and have just a few last minute things to cross off my to do list – stop by the bank to grab some rupees, confirm my stay at the ashram, buy up some raw granola, pick up a pair of lulu…
Gluten-free + Vegan Chewy Carob Chip Cookies
Slide over dreamy cookie balls, there’s a new cookie in town and he’s a dangerous one! Super, freakin’ dangerous. Sneaky, really. Before you realize, you’ll have eaten 6 of these guys without even knowing it. They put a spell on you… At least that’s my excuse. Maybe I’m so infatuated with these cookies because I’ve…
