Roasted Red Pepper and Squash Soup
Regular readers of this blog won’t be surprised to learn that I am averse to cold weather. In fact, I dread it. Ever year as the thermometer drops, so do my spirits. I can’t help it; I hate winter. I hate winter so much that I shiver just at the thought of impending snow and […]
Raw Pink Breakfast Bowl
[Many thanks to everyone for your kind wishes about the new book! I was blown away by your responses. Thank you!] My old friend Phil had a saying in high school.

Lauren’s Fruity Tea-Steeped Oatmeal with Kiwis
[Here topped with a dollop of coconut yogurt] So it’s no secret that I love summer. (No, let me rephrase that: I adore summer. I worship summer. I am summer’s acolyte. I wait all year, walking around like Pigpen with a gray cloud floating in my wake wherever I go, until summer finally arrives and […]

[With added hemp seeds, sprouts, radish, apple and chopped pecans] It’s been a crazy couple of weeks here in the DDD household, what with mega-marking for my classes at the college, a whirlwind trip to Montreal (more on that anon), the regular array of doctor’s appointments, a quick visit for a dental emergency (my molar […]
