Whereever I go, whenever I speak about ancient grains, inevitably someone will raise a hand and confess, with a sigh, “I’d love to eat better but I’m afraid whole grains take too much time to cook. I am too busy.” You know the feeling, don’t you? Continue Reading No Time for Good Grains? Three Tips from my Busy Kitchen

Breakfast & Brunch
Cutting Cold Cereal Cold Turkey (Plus Forbidden Black Rice Coconut Pudding)
There isn’t a stronger parent trap at the grocery store than the one in the breakfast aisle. We began parenthood as two former kids raised by Tony the Tiger and Toucan Sam, and it was tough trying to navigate breakfast without a box.

Super-Easy Whole-Wheat Biscuits from 100 Days of Real Food
I think it’s imperative for people to know that eating right doesn’t have to be complicated, and more importantly (except for during this challenge, of course) it doesn’t have to be all-or-nothing.

Yogurt Margherita
Redwood Hill Farm recently invited me to join a few fellow bloggers in creating our own yogurt flavors. Instead of the typical fruit-on-the-bottom (yawn), we were encouraged to think “outside the cup” and come up with fun new twists on yogurt mix-ins. I decided to go savory.
