Something about spring makes me want to eat healthier, whether it’s because I have to wear a bathing suit soon or because I’m naturally outside exercising more and building good health juju. This kale and radish slaw is a delicious and easy dish to whip up and pair with lots of different meals. Here it’s…

Pasta with Kale and Sundried Tomatoes
Want to up your pasta game? A classic dish of pasta is always delicious, but can be made so much better by adding just a few extra ingredients. I’m guilty of having pasta for dinner whenever I can’t decide what to make or when I feel like we have “nothing” in the house. If you’re…
Taters Beans and Kale
There are always those days when it seems like you have no ingredients, and you have to make a miracle happen to make dinner. Today was one of those days. I couldn’t quite figure out what we should have for dinner, so we had a hodge podge of delicious things, and lucky for me, they…
Loaded Baked Potatoes
Confession: I have absolutely ZERO patience and therefore I may never make jacket (baked) potatoes again, especially not at 7:30pm on a weeknight, that’s for sure. I put these babies in the oven at 7:05pm and they weren’t even close to done at 8:15pm, so needless to say, I was frustrated and HANGRY. But, they…

Veggie Supreme Pizza
Pizza is my favorite food and I could eat it for every meal. There is no doubt in my mind that I could eat it every day three times a day for the rest of my life. Especially with the existence of such good dairy-free cheeses these days, and their availability in most super markets,…
Kale Lentil Bowl
Bowls are so trendy these days, aren’t they? They’re on most healthy or vegetarian restaurant menus, they’re all over Instagram, they’re in every vegan cookbook I own. But what is a bowl other than a normal meal packaged in a pretty way? You got your quinoa or grain base, you got your bean or lentil…
Tomato Cucumber Salad with Sauteed Kale
I am loving meals full of veggies in this brutal heat. Who feels like turning on the oven when it is 95 degrees in New York City? Especially when you don’t have air conditioning and your kitchen is like a sauna? This heat wave has got me craving watery vegetables and cold salads. For dinner…
