Polenta is one of my favorite breakfasts lately. I usually eat a big bowl of it with a little bit of butter and honey/agave nectar. Sometimes I treat it more like oatmeal and add raisins, although ...

I second gayatri's comment about cold oatmeal. I love oatmeal so much I want to eat it year round. I soak it overnight in milk/water and then mix in raisins, fruit, honey, cinnamon, etc in the morn...

This may sound slightly weird, but I think one of the points at which I realized I was really becoming serious about food and cooking was when I started enjoying having garlic-scented hands. ...

I made a delicious Spring Miso Soup with asparagus, edamame, wild garlic leaves, spring onions, and udon noodles. I thought I was done with soup now that the winter is over, but this o...

Mejdu, I was thinking of printing it once on thicker paper and having it laminated. Then using a dry erase marker. Then you wouldn't have to repeatedly print it.

I thought it would be a good idea to chop and freeze some of the veggies that come in my veg box so that I didn't have to rush to use them all up before going bad. But in the freezer they are out o...

Tahini. I use it in everything now! I make a sauce/dressing with tahini, garlic, lemon juice and zest, salt, pepper, olive oil and honey (if I want it sweet) and put it on grains, salads, vegetable...

I use dates as a healthier way to satisfy my sweet tooth. I used to eat a lot of candy and now when I crave something sweet, I eat some dates instead. I find the dried ones to have a much more inte...

I was going to mention Dave Leibovitz's article as well. Corn syrup from the grocery store is not the same as HFCS. I would be careful with substituting the corn syrup with maple syrup...

Rachels- Google eggless quickbread and tons of recipes come up. Most recipes you can use things like zucchini, carrots, raisins, etc interchangeably as long as you don't drastically ch...
