Recipe: Quinoa Tahini Ginger Granola

Post by Olivia Blodgett, Registered Dietitian and Owner

It’s not often I stray from my favorite granola recipe  but I thought I’d give something else I try.  I doubled this recipe to make 3 large jars of granola that will last me a few months.  Feel free to change up the ingredients but I think it’s pretty tasty as is!  Read More

Recipe: Baked Mushroom Risotto with Caramelized Onions

Post by Olivia Martino Blodgett, Personal Chef, Registered Dietitian and Owner

Risotto is a dish that I make often for personal chef clients, and although the stirring really isn’t as laborious as some think, I have to admit it is pretty nice to just stick the whole thing in the oven and not worry about it until it’s finished.  The rice turned out perfectly tender and the flavors in this dish are deep and savory.  The kitchen is smelling amazing right now!

Recipe: Chocolate Chip Cookies (Vegan + GF!!!)

Post By Olivia Martino Blodgett, Registered Dietitian and Owner

These cookies are simply the best.  We feature them in our Vegan All American Cooking Class, but since we haven’t offered this class in awhile, I felt that it was unethical for me to keep this recipe to myself.  While I am not personally gluten free or vegan, I truly believe these cookies are better than any traditional version I have had.  They are crispy on the edges but perfectly chewy in the middle.  Being allergen friendly is just an added bonus! Enjoy!

Recipe: Kale and Chickpea Stuffed Spaghetti Squash with Lemon Garlic Sauce

 
Spaghetti squash isn’t one of those foods that I always love, but when doctored up correctly, it can be part of one delicious meal.  It’s not pasta by any means and if that’s what you’re expecting, then you might be disappointed.  This recipe provides the perfect method to spice this veggie up.  A yummy blend of butter (or vegan butter), sauted garlic, thyme and chili flake, plus some added protein from chickpeas and a flavor punch from sundried tomatoes makes this spaghetti squash recipe a keeper!  Bonus: Anytime my bowl is edible, I’m a happy camper!
