2Spinach, Zucchini & Sweet Corn Cakes

Spinach, Zucchini & Sweet Corn Cakes

Jul 4, 2019

This is one of my favorite dishes right now. A remake of my mother-in-law’s Polish zucchini patties, these spinach, zucchini and fresh cut sweet corn cakes are made with Greek yogurt, garbanzo bean flour and an array of herbs. High in dietary fiber and plant based protein, these “veggie cakes” are a perfect option for […]

8Turmeric’s Healing Powers

Turmeric’s Healing Powers

Nov 6, 2016

Turmeric, known in Sanskrit as “The Golden Goddess,” is very alluring due to its vibrant yellow hue. Quite peppery, warming and bitter in flavor, it is the most prevalent spice found in curry, amongst many other oriental dishes ranging from dhal to palak paneer. A root belonging to the Curcuma Longa plant, native to southwest […]
