Grapefruit & Avocado Salad
Even more than flavor I’ve always been obsessed with the textures in food. How it feels in my mouth and in my hands as I prepare it is the most sensual, absorbing part of the food experience for me. I’ll never forget learning, while living in Japan, that they have at least ten different words [...]
Almond Milk
This is the first video I’m posting on this website. I feel a little nervous. I know I look silly! I am a human being after all so I’m not going to worry too much. (but if you want to see more of my cooking videos feel free to leave charming comments:-) In my ongoing [...]

Chocolate Almond Torte
I don’t know about you but I love making something extra special on Valentine’s Day! This year I’m into making raw desserts so I created this dessert for my sweetie who loves dark chocolate with salt. I used a vegan pressed crust, that’s baked, for the textural contrast that’s so important to me in a [...]
Gluten Free Jam Dot Cookies
These are delicious cookies and especially fun to make with kids, as they are foolproof, low in sweetener and full of healthy fats and whole grains. I’ve had friends feed them to their kids for breakfast, saying that they are healthier than any cereal out there – they reported no sugar spike. Isn’t that the [...]
