Yes, you could easily pick up a can of mediocre enchilada sauce at the grocery store for your next batch of enchiladas. However, why would you do that when you can make a delicious enchilada sauce at home in less than 15 minutes?

There is something about the big seasonal changes that makes most of us want to cleanse our bodies and our environment. For those of us living in cold climates, we have spent the last few months indoors. The more time we spend at home, the dirtier our homes become. As the temperatures warm up, we know we are going to spend more time outside, and wouldn't it be great if our homes were nice and clean before our focus moves to maintaining our yards and enjoying summer fun?

When I came across a recipe for chickpea cheddar chowder, I had to make it. It reminds me of broccoli cheddar soup, with extra veggies and more protein.

Today I'm getting bougie. I'm making artisan crackers to serve on a vegetarian charcuterie board. I certainly don't plan to make all our crackers from scratch in the future, but every once in a while, it's nice to make something special.

If you are trying to cook healthy meals for you and your family, you might think you need the newest appliances and a bunch of handy gadgets to make cooking easier. However, that is NOT true. It is 100 times easier to work in a simplified kitchen. Please look around your kitchen and implement a few of these suggestions.

During the big seasonal shifts (Winter to Spring and Summer to Fall), we are often inspired to cleanse our bodies and our homes. While many people go crazy with a cleanse/detox program. They subject themselves to very strict regimens of fasting, juicing, and even enemas. That is not my style. I am a fan of moderation and prefer a simple, gentle seasonal cleanse.

Today I'm sharing a super-easy recipe for peanut butter. Of course, you can buy peanut butter, but most name brands contain both sugar and seed oils. When you make it yourself, you control the ingredients.

Today I'm sharing a recipe for dinner rolls. You can buy those soft, pillowy dinner rolls at the store, but have you ever looked at the ingredient list? Instead, maybe give this recipe a try. It makes 24 rolls, so you can always freeze some for a future dinner!

Today I'm making a salad. Not a Plain-Jane boring salad, but a delicious and healthy super green salad with homemade falafel. I'm calling it a St. Paddy's Day salad for no other reason than it's March and the salad is all green.
