FIsh Recipes. Recipies. Black Bean, Quinoa and Mango Medley. Happy Monday, hope everyone had a nice weekend. Today is the first day of April and Spring is in the air! I started my morning with a two mile run which felt great, and I thought it would be the perfect day to enjoy this delicious quinoa salad which I am reviving from the archives. Black beans, sweet mango, and lots of colorful vegetables make a delicious zesty salad that has wonderful texture, color and flavor. Serve this as a side dish at a potluck or enjoy this as a meatless main course with some corn tortillas (perfect for Meatless Mondays!!)

Leftovers are perfect for lunch on the go as the flavors only get better the next day. Packed with vitamin C, vitamin A, fiber, folate, iron and lutein so it's not just tasty, it's good for you. This recipe is from The Plant-Powered Diet by Sharon Palmer, RD who I met in California on my trip to the Dole Blogger Summit. Ingredients: Mix together the beans, quinoa, corn, bell pepper, mango, onion, cilantro, and jalapeño in a mixing bowl.

Dark chocolate coconut macaroons. 2014 has been mostly about the chocolate thus far, which is the kind of thing that happens when you outsource what-to-cook-next decisions to my husband and his Mini-Me. We bounced from Chocolate Hazelnut Linzer Hearts to Chocolate Peanut Butter Cheesecake before landing on a Double Chocolate Banana Bread which, even a month later leads to the weekly “accidental” purchase of way more bananas that we’d ever eat, so we “have” to make more, no violins necessary. Thus, it would be easy to blame the boys in my family for what I did to an innocent coconut macaroon — that is, saddling it with not one but two types of chocolate, until it was intensely fudgy and brownie-like with an almost gooey center, seriously why aren’t you baking these yet? — but guys, this was all me.

Because although I do not share my family’s perspective that if it’s not chocolate, it’s not worth eating, I feel adamant that if you’re going to eat chocolate, it should really, really taste like chocolate. Vegan Tequila Sunrise Sorbet. Nutritional information Makes 1 quart Instead of flavoring this sorbet with grenadine, a pomegranate syrup, we used whole pomegranate seeds.

Vegan Recipe Blueberry Almond Chia Squares. Last weekend, I found myself at the Farmer’s Market ogling fresh blueberries. Before I left, Eric said, “Don’t bring back more than you can eat,” with a wink. This was surely a challenge. I left with 2 pounds of blueberries and the complete confidence that I would eat all of them. He obviously doesn’t realize that I’m capable of eating my own weight in pretty much any fruit or vegetable.

This week, I made Blueberry Banana Pie Vegan Overnight Oats (so amazing!) Raw Buckwheat Breakfast Porridge with blueberries and cinnamon. and now, Blueberry Almond Chia Squares! And I think I’m starting to turn blue. Blueberry Almond Chia Squares The ultimate gooey blueberry square packed with chia seeds, oats, and almonds!

It might not be summer everywhere yet, but here in Texas, it’s hot. Lately our weekend afternoons have consisted of long sweaty walks followed by sweet frozen treats. This ice cream has been out treat-of-choice over the past few weeks – mainly because when you experiment with new recipes, you make a lot of versions.

And thus, a lot of ice cream. It’s not a bad problem to have. This recipe is a 2-parter, you can stop at the ice cream, or go a step further and make it into a milkshake. This one is a little equipment heavy, as you need a vitamix-type-blender and also an ice cream maker. Vegan peanut butter bourbon milkshake Ingredients for the ice cream: 2 cups raw cashews, soaked overnight 1 3/4 cups Original Almond Breeze Almond Milk1/4 cup peanut butter 3/4 cup cane sugar 2-3 tablespoons bourbon (or 2 T apple cider vinegar) for the milkshake: 2 scoops of ice cream chocolate sauce (store bought) 1/2-1 cup Original Almond Breeze Almond Milkoptional - a shot of bourbon if you want a spiked drink. Lentils folded into Yogurt, Spinach, and Basil Recipe. There is a tiny, thoughtfully curated bookstore on a North-west corner of San Francisco's Potrero Hill neighborhood. I was a few minutes early for a lunch nearby and couldn't help but pop in for a quick browse.

Five minutes later I walked out with Lunch at the Shop: The Art and Practice of the Midday Meal. It is an inspired volume by long-established Seattle book store owner Peter Miller celebrating the simple pleasures achieved by taking and appreciating (what I consider) a proper lunch. The emphasis is firmly put on food that is simple, fresh, thoughtful, and often communal. Said another way - lunch doesn't need to be complicated or elaborate to be meaningful. Taking time for lunch.

Sadly, I haven’t always been kind to pumpkins. Quickly dismissed as something to be decorated and displayed, while other squashes make the cut and are happily cooked and eaten. That all changed last year when I tried pumpkin curry for the first time at a Thai restaurant. I had an epiphany; pumpkin is yummy in a savory dish. No longer shunned, I grabbed a couple cans from Trader Joe’s mountain of canned organic pumpkin puree before they’re all gone (15 oz can for $1.99).
