In addition to being a health coach and food blogger, I’m also a graphic designer. I worked in design for many years, before deciding to study nutrition, and I still do some design and art work when I can. Last year I had the privilege of working with author Kathy Hester on her e-book The Ghoulish Gourmet….

Slow Cooker Indian Chickpea Stew
Last week I shared a recipe for a Tempeh and Pumpkin Noodle Bowl, which I veganized from a recipe booklet that was sent to me from a certain home decorating magazine. There were a few other recipes in the booklet that I had my mind set on converting, the easiest of which was an slow…

Fresh From the Vegan Slow Cooker Giveaway
I’m a big fan of my slow cooker and an even bigger fan of Robin Robertson, so earlier in the year when I heard that she was working on a new vegan slow cooker cookbook, I began to eagerly await the date of it’s release. Fortunately, the wait is now over, and I am now…
Slow Cooker Ratatouille
I will admit that before Pixar’s movie Ratatouille came out, I had no idea what kind of dish ratatouille was. I knew it was French, so I assumed it was loaded with nasty things like lard and cheese. Needless to say, I was pleasantly surprised to find out it was a veggie dish full of…
