The Tabasco taste here is actually quite subtle once the butter is incorporated into the quinoa – a bit spicy, a bit tangy.

Sea Salt Baked Potato Recipe
I found some fantastic arugula, so that is what I used. But I could imagine using whatever green salad you like – spinach, baby romaine, maiche, etc. And I used big russet potatoes. The dressing calls for a raw egg yolk, if you’re uncomfortable eating raw egg, swap in another favorite, luxe or creamy-ish salad dressing – this buttermilk one would… Read more →

Gluten Free Almond Power Bars
These no bake, high-protein, high-fiber bars are based upon Melissa Diane Smith’s recipe for Amaretto Protein Bars in her book Going Against the Grain and are a cinch to make. The chocolate topping makes them seem a bit decadent (skip it if you must, they’ll still come out fine) –though dark chocolate, rich in anti-oxidants has now entered the echelon of power… Read more →
