This tabbouleh was inspired by the Tabbouleh offered at my local Whole Foods. Unlike most recipes, this is mostly herbs with some quinoa thrown in to keep it gluten free. What I love about it is that it is super flavorful and chock full of vitamins and minerals! Fresh herbs are an abundant source of …
I found this salad recipe on Emily Nunn’s most delicious substack, The Department of Salad. Special thanks to her for allowing me to repost and share with you. Fennel is a fantastically versatile vegetable that is often overlooked unless one has the fortune to have it appear a CSA box. This root veg is high …
This peanut lime vinaigrette is an adaptation from a recipe recommended to me by a member of the VIBRANCE Village of Health on Facebook. The lime lightens up the sauce a lot and, unlike a traditional peanut sauce, this one does not feel heavy and comforting for winter, but rather light and refreshing and best …
Cultured foods are historically how we have gotten probiotics and maintained healthy digestive tracts.

It is also fantastic without the feta! Serves 4 * 3 1/2 pounds seedless watermelon (rind removed), cut into 1-inch cubes (6 …
Rather than indulging in a traditional American creamy, mayo-laden potato salad, I propose this alternative: a Greek-inspired potato salad that is far more refreshing and appropriate for summertime picnic tables. Use of small waxy red potatoes keeps the glycemic index lower than using russets and ensures firm texture. Red onions carry anti-inflammatory quercitin and the …
There is an abundance of arugula in my yard. I was originally considering an arugula pesto, but I am well underway on my winter cleanse and am not consuming pasta (rice, quinoa or otherwise). I proposed a salad to go along with dinner on Sunday, and a roommate asked if that salad could be warmed. …
