This recipe is a great one for your leftover cranberries that might be in the fridge or freezer after the holidays (it also makes a fantastic holiday side dish if it’s the season!). I purchased way too many bags of cranberries, and have been left with more than I care to admit on hand. So […]
Bok choy and Red Pepper juice
This juicing recipe does not yield pretty looking juice, but it’s healthy and pretty tasty. I wondered what Bok Choy would taste like juiced, and it’s not too strong (reminiscent of celery).
Winter Stew recipe: Vegan Mushroom Barley with turmeric and garlic (Oil Free)
I am excited about this easy to make vegan winter stew recipe. The mushrooms and barley are really filling, and the stew features a bunch of ingredients that are inexpensive if you buy them, or easy to grow if you garden them.

Quick and simple spicy vegetable udon soup (Vegan, No oil)
A quick lunch is often required if you’re working, whether it’s at home or in the office. This lunch of a simple vegetable udon soup fits the bill: it was prepared out of what happened to be in the fridge at the time: random vegetables (asian greens, mushrooms, and onions), vegetable broth that is always […]
