Groovy Green Smoothie

by Ricki Heller 40 Comments

I have to admit, it was reassuring to read all the like-minded comments on my recent “I Hate Winter” post (even though it meant that a bunch of you are also having to endure it, too).  Thanks, all.  Despite my best intentions to abolish my abhorrence of winter, the Season of Slush and Ice just keeps on giving me […]

Getting Those Five to Ten a Day: Green Monster Muffins

by Ricki Heller 28 Comments

[Totally unrelated note: ever wonder how people find your blog? Well, ever since I wrote my post about our holiday in Florida, the number one search term that leads people to my blog is. . . “Alligators.”  Yes, indeedy: folks looking for reptilian, steel trap-jawed people-eaters are sent to. . . my blog. In droves.

Green Day:* French Green Soup with Spinach, Lettuce and Peas

by Ricki Heller 30 Comments

*No relation to the band of the same name, of course. [Holy shamrock! That soup really is rather green!] After being on the ACD for a full year now, I must admit to feeling a bit like a basket case (my, time sure does fly when you’re [not] having fungus).  Having cut out poprocks and coke–not to mention […]

by Ricki Heller 28 Comments

Well, it’s Canadian Thanksgiving on Monday, which can only mean one thing:  Star Trek marathon on Space Channel!  Or maybe: Ellen Page gets a surprise celebration from buddy Justin Long? Or how about: only 257 more days until summer? Okay, in reality, Thanksgiving means that, like it or not, the holiday season is already upon us.  […]

Vegan Molten Chocolate Cakes

by Ricki Heller 53 Comments

[Disclaimer:  With all the responses I’ve gotten to this cake–good AND bad–I felt it necessary to point out that I created this recipe as a response to all the hype over a particular cookbook that has taken the spotlight over hiding spinach in a chocolate dessert. As I mentioned in the original post about sweets […]
