Yoga DVDs, Moroccan Spiced Carrot Soup, and More

Thanks so much, everyone, for your support yesterday. It is appreciated!
Recently, a client asked me which yoga DVDs I recommend. The answer? I have no idea. Though I love to fly and flow and fall flat on my face at Laughing Lotus and other studios here in the city, I’ve never tried a yoga DVD.
Porque? [...]

The Savory and the Sweet

Boo!
Happy post-Halloween. I just finished folding up my slutty schoolgirl costume and putting it away for next year. Score!
Yeeeah. Kidding, people. It’s been a while since this girl “dressed up” for October 31st. I did stop by a party last night, but I was dressed up in the very creative guise of a book editor [...]

Red Pepper and Hemp Soup

Ah, fall. Season of soups.
You guys know by now that I love raw soups. Which is a little funny, since I was never a fan of cooked soups. Or rather, I was never a fan of cooked soups with lots of stuff in them: chicken noodle, minestrone, miso, vegetable barley, whatever. I could handle the [...]

Raw Tortilla Soup

Happy Monday, guys!
Thanks for the lovely feedback to Cory’s highly informative guest post!
When people transition to a raw diet, they tend to anticipate missing things. For this reason, most new raw foodists spend a whole lot of time trying to re-create their favorite “cooked” recipes in raw form: raw lasagna, raw noodles, raw “rice,” etc. [...]

Perfect Gazpacho

When you eat a raw diet, there are certain dishes that are easy to explain to people (salad) and certain ones (raw cashew alfredo over zucchini spaghetti) that can be a little tough. The tough ones are fun, if only to show off the tremendous creativity that goes into serious raw cuisine. But the easy [...]

Introducing the Blended Salad

One of the cooler blog trends lately is rise of green smoothies (or green monsters, as so many like to say). The introduction of spinach and kale into everyone’s morning smoothie was one of my favorite blogging developments of the year—and lately I’ve been delighted to see greens appearing in hot breakfast cereals too (thank [...]

Avocado Cilantro Soup, and Travel Wrap Up

Hi everyone,
I’m home!!!
Here’s a confession: I am not a born traveler. I like to travel, and I’ve had universally wonderful travel experiences (this weekend included). But I am always thrilled to get back to my beloved city. It’s my lifeblood, and no matter how exotic or exciting new cities or parts of the world are [...]

Avo-Coco Soup

Morning everyone! This post will have to be a bit rushed (it’s that kind of day).
After tasting the incredible avo-coco soup at Caravan on Monday night, I decided I had to re-create it for myself at home this week. Last night was my first attempt, and it was a huge success! This soup is unbelievably [...]

Best. Soup. Ever.

As you may have noticed, I’m a big fan of raw soups. This is funny, given that traditional soups were never my favorite. Or, to be more precise, any broth based soup was never my favorite: I’ve always been partial to blended soups (root vegetable soups, for instance), which is probably why the smooth and [...]

The Lunch Break Series: Bonobos Vegetarian (and a recipe)

I’m very lucky to work within walking distance of not one, but four fantastic raw and vegan restaurants: One Lucky Duck, Adelina, Jivamukti, and Bonobos (yes, like the monkey). While I bring my work to lunch or have work lunches on most days, I also like to support and take advantage of these great dining [...]
