I’ve borrowed the theme from one of my favorite college restaurants and made a deliciously healthy version of what they called the “Flyin’ Mayan:” a sweet potato and black bean burrito. I’ve grilled my sweet potatoes in thick slices much like steak fries. Adding black beans, corn, avocado and my yummy vegan slaw, all wrapped up in a soft, warm flour tortilla – it’s the perfect combination!
Regardless of whether you like gluten-free beer or not (and no matter which you might prefer), this fish recipe is sure to please! Use veggies, shrimp/scallops or fish — don’t wait any longer for that light and crispy fish & chips dinner you’ve been craving!
Latkes have come to mean “Potato Pancakes” in common parlance, but nowhere does it say that they must be made with potatoes. This is the first of two new posts using the wonderfully versatile, über-healthy and easy to cook, Spaghetti Squash.
I view Pad Thai as the Thai version of leftover night, only unlike a typical leftover dinner, this is a dish everyone can get excited about. Open your refrigerator and start throwing in ingredients – literally, just toss them into the wok or large skillet and sauté until all the flavors aromatically permeate your house and call everyone to the meal. A great recipe + a yummy ingredient giveaway = a win-win!

The dish now known as Ratatouille is an ancient Mediterranean stew traditionally known as “Peasant’s Food,” since it is essentially comprised of any leftovers you can find thrown into a pot and cooked down together. Farmer’s food: fresh local vegetables, stewed in regional herbs, it can change with particular influences of the chef preparing it, and can vary every time you make it as well!
I’ve experimented with many different recipes for this fresh favorite, and this recipe is by far my favorite. Feel free to grill the fish instead, but if you want the taste of a traditional, lightly batter-fried fish taco, this recipe is for you!
