This easy, fresh fruit salad recipe the PERFECT recipe to make for a barbeque or potluck, either as a side dish or a light dessert.

Whew! It’s been a whirlwind week of travel for me—which is why this post is a little late in coming! Last week, I told you about a dinner party I held at which each course of the meal corresponded to a course I took from a local shop! We did a cheese course and...
As I mentioned on Monday, last week I held a dinner party at my home to show off my new cooking chops after taking a series of culinary classes at amazing establishments all around Boulder County.

Whew! I just did my first EVER Google+ Hangout on Air! And it was super easy. Fun times! I can see myself using this more in the near future… This salad is SO fresh and flavorful, and it’s gluten free (as long as you use GF soy sauce and fish sauce). Get the recipe...
{UPDATE!} I’ve made a gluten-free, vegan version of these. And lo, it is awesome. SEE BELOW! Oh my lord. I can’t believe I’m going to put this out on the internet for anyone to see. Have you ever thought to yourself, “I should make some cookies…” purely because you want to eat some cookie...
OMG! I’m so excited! It’s my first-ever VIDEO BLOG! When I was writing my e-book, The Ultimate Guide to Eating Organic on a Budget, I included some of my favorite DIY recipes for things like crock pot beans, easy tomato sauce, and sandwich bread. It took me years—literally, years—to figure out the techniques and...
