My brother Eric in California asks me great questions about cooking. I provide info, as an extension of the cooking coaching I did for them a year ago on a visit (and b/c I’m a nice sister). So, he wrote recently that he was craving sauteed greens and wanted a few more variations than the [...]

Aiiyeee! But the Mpls market on North Lyndale is open daily 6am – 1pm til Dec 25th. The variety of produce [...]

Beans and Dark Leafy Greens such as chard are a wonderful combination that happens to be easy, versatile and extremely nutritious (and low-fat). [...]

Here’s the “After” picture promised in previous post of my vegan Wasabi Kohlrabi Herb Potato Salad (see recipe). Redolent of fresh dill, flat-leaf parsley and cilantro, the salad was a CROWD PLEASER on Sunday, as well as at a Labor Day picnic I catered the following day. People are always surprised there is NO MAYO in this creamy [...]

High in protein and very low in fat, silken/soft tofu is a wonderful way to make anything creamy, especially those salad dressings and dips we all like. And if it gets us all eating more veggies …. See Recipes for the creamy herb dressing that we made and served last Sunday at the Market’s Little Locavores. Use [...]
