The Better Pasta
Recently I had an appointment with my Nutritionist, who is responsible for millions of people getting healthy. Kathie Swift, MS, RD, LDN is the practitioner who introduced Mark Hyman, M.D. to both functional medicine and food as an avenue to health. She was the person...
Spicy Korean Pork with Asian Slaw
This recipe was so good when I had it at my brother-in-law Marty’s house, we asked him for the recipe. Originally from Fine Cooking, I’m posting it here. You can find a lot of good recipes on their site. This is a beautiful and delicious...
Low Carb Meatloaf
My husband and I have been in a ground beef rut. Sick of making hamburgers (grass fed only), spaghetti sauce, tacos, and chili. But Meatloaf had been off limits to us because of the fillers in it. It often has bread crumbs and/or oatmeal, which...
(Almost) Dairy Free Lasagna
I wanted to make some lasagna last week, but I just can’t eat ricotta, mozarella or any dairy to speak of. I decided to set out and try to adapt a recipe using cashew cream as my “ricotta” replacement. I used pasta that was fresh...
Middle Eastern “Sliders” with Sumac Onions

Healthy Ginger Carrot Soup

Halibut with Spaghetti Squash
Fish intimidates people. So, what if I told you that fish is one of the easiest things to master! The KEY to fish is freshness. And it cooks so quickly that you can make dinner in a flash! Although this requires baking spaghetti squash, you...
Kofta b’siniyah by Yottam Ottolenghi
These are the middle eastern version of meatballs, and in my opinion, far superior to what we often see in frozen packages in the “big box” stores. Blech. Yottam Ottolenghi has two GORGEOUS cookbooks, with his Palestinian childhood friend and partner, and is based in...
French Lentil Salad
This salad is a take-off of the Parslied Lentil Salad from Dr. Mark Hyman’s “Ultrametabolism Cookbook”, a cookbook I highly recommend! If you need a basic cookbook on eating healthy, his two cookbooks are what I recommend you begin with. Here is a link to...
