The Love of Lentils, the Romance of Roots

February 6, 2023 by Ellen Kanner Leave a Comment

Lentils!  Carrots!  These two titanic plantbased ingredients team up in this chic-as-anything French lentil salad. Oft overlooked and undervalued, here they get the love they deserve, bound by a bold Dijon vinaigrette and accented with toasty walnuts.   French lentil salad is one of my anytime go-tos, but this week especially.

Guava Cream Cheese Pastries

Sweet Potato Pie for Everyone

January 16, 2023 by Ellen Kanner Leave a Comment

Creamy, comforting and above all sweet, sweet potato pie is more than dessert. Sweet potato pie is the taste of home, it’s its own love language, and a sweet symbol of Black pride, perfect for Martin Luther King Day. If your mother, auntie or gran makes it, you know it’s the best. But here’s the…

Cauliflower Pasta of a Different (Delicious) Kind

January 9, 2023 by Ellen Kanner Leave a Comment

Starting the new year with plant power means more than green smoothies.  Cozy up to 2023 with creamy, comforting cauliflower pasta.  Cauliflower, once dismissed, overcooked, or both, is having its moment thanks to the keto craze and people’s carb phobia.  It started with commercial cauliflower pizza crust.  Cauli flatbread, cauli crackers, cauli pasta and more…
