Three Holidays, One Umoja Recipe I had Chanukah in mind with this recipe, which I demoed yesterday at Temple Solel’s first-ever Jewish Vegetarian Food Festival, but it would be happy to be on anyone’s holiday table. With Chanukah, Christmas and Kwanzaa all clustered together in the same week, it’s an opportunity to celebrate our cultural…

Vegan Harira
Life in the Fast Lane Originally posted on 8/23/2010 for Huffington Post Yom Kippur, the Jewish Day of Atonement, starts tomorrow night at sundown.

Romesco Sauce
Wake up veggies with romesco sauce Originally posted on 3/27/2013 for The Buffalo News Romesco sauce is a wakeup call for boring veggies. Gutsy and garlicky, this Spanish sauce is sultry with ground almonds. Rich and intense, it’s complex enough to hold its own. It has a rosy terracotta hue, but it’s more than just…

I wanted the wild poppies and lavender of June and the golden light of the French countryside, too. None…

Fireworks Black Bean and Mango Salad
The Revolution Will Not Come With Meal Kits Originally posted for Huffington Post on 7/4/2016 Today we celebrate Independence Day, that time a few hundred years ago when our forefathers broke with British tyrants.
