Here are the pros and cons of eating potatoes, their effect on blood sugar balance, and other considerations before you take a bite.] [The humble potato: dietary friend or foe?] Every summer, people’s minds turn to BBQs, picnics and other outdoor festivities.

Gingered Potatoes with Browned Onions and Tomatoes

Candida Diet, Gluten-Free Gingered Potatoes with Browned Onions and Tomatoes on RickiHeller.com

I get a lot of questions about the Candida Diet (or Anti-Candida Diet–ACD, as I call it). Most of the time, people either want to know what it is I ate and/or eat now (I outlined the different stages of my diet, and all the foods I ate, on the FAQ page, here). Sometimes, however, […]

Kitchen Classics: Shepherd’s Pie

by Ricki Heller 21 Comments

Some things just never change.  As a result, there are certain aspects of our lives upon which we all tend to rely. For instance, you expect that Wile E. Coyote will tumble down the mountainside (an anvil in hot pursuit), only to re-emerge the following week without so much as a scratch–and start all over […]

Potato Boats with "Sour Cream" and Herbs

by Ricki Heller 45 Comments

The expression, “it’s complicated” is often enough to make the blood drain from my face and my forehead break out in a cold sweat.  For example: Scene One: Ricki and her then-boyfriend, Rocker Guy (he of the black leather pants) at Rocker Guy’s apartment, shortly after Ricki stumbles upon RG sitting a little too close to […]

Kitchen Classics: Chickpea, Tomato and Potato Stew for Winter’s Reprise

by Ricki Heller 39 Comments

What?? It’s winter? Again?? Okay, Mother Nature, this is really getting old.  I mean, we’ve been tortured by  suffering with  enduring  tolerating winter since October 21, 2010 (should I feel guilty that that’s my birthday?).  Time for some warmer temps, dry streets, green buds poking their happy noses out of the ground.  Time for some […]

Last Minute Thanksgiving Ideas

by Ricki Heller 11 Comments

I had intended a lovely post today, in honor of the upcoming Thanksgiving long weekend to the south of us.  But time constraints (read: massive, unwieldly pile of essays and assignments to mark) have prevented me from following through. So I’ll just have to wait till the next batch of holidays in December to post […]

Odd. . . my Google Reader seemed to be filling up at an alarming rate, sort of like the rising waterline in The Poseidon Adventure.  Then I remembered:  Not only is October the official World Vegetarian Month, it’s also the Vegan MOFO (Month of Food)!  This is the 31-day period in which vegan food bloggers worldwide pledge to blog […]

You Say Potato Curry, I Say Aloo Masala

by Ricki Heller 20 Comments

In my imagination, I’d love to live on a farm. I say “in my imagination” because, in my reality, I’m actually the farthest thing from a farm type of gal (“What the-?  What do you mean, 5:15 is the normal time for the rooster to crow?!!”  OR, “What do you mean, it’s almost 2 hours to the closest Barnes […]
