'Instant' Skinny Chai Tea Latte Mix — The Skinny Fork
So today I've opted to make my day a little sweeter with a homemade dry chai tea mix that's sure to delight and take me right back into all of those wonderful and fond memories I have of tea. When putting this recipe together, I decided to use Truvia for the sweetener instead of granulated sugar. I'm always trying to cut sugar out of my diet wherever I can! Truvia is an all natural zero-calorie sweetener that's made from the sweet leaves of the stevia plant. Plus, it's kosher and gluten-free; and of course, gluten-free is something I've been striving for lately too. By the way, you can try Truvía® Natural Sweetener before purchasing. I also chose to use Bigelow 'English Teatime' Black Tea to partner with the dry chai tea latte mix. You can download a $0.55 coupon for Bigelow tea too! Another great thing about this mix, other than the fact that it's lightened up, is that it makes enough so that you can even gift some of it away.
Grilled Guacamole Recipe
Grilled Guacmole? Ummmm. Heck yes!! I made this recently for Tasty Kitchen and it was gooooood. And… wanna hear something really exciting. Okay….here’s the step by step for Grilled Guacamole: You need to prepare either your indoor or outdoor grill. Once the avocados have some grill marks, throw a few slices of red onion on the grill to char. Next up, let’s grill some tomato quarters! Once we’ve got everything grilled and set aside, place the avocado into a bowl and give it a quick mash. Next, grate some garlic over the avocado. Be sure to get all that fabulous garlic from the bottom side of your grater. Next, juice a lime or two over the avocado. Add the chopped red onion. And then the tomatoes! Throw in some chopped cilantro. Season the guac with some salt and a few turns of freshly cracked black pepper. And serve it up with some of your favorite chips!! Check out Tasty Kitchen for the full recipe of Grilled Guacamole!

Superfoods are hot topics at the moment – yet, I think that sometimes in our distraction for the quick boost, or quick fix, it’s very easy to forget some very profound basics. I’d like to make the case that real food grown in or raised on foods from nutrient rich soils are all super foods in their own right. Notice that I using the word as an adjective – a describing word. How about we do this instead? Buy food grown in nutrient rich soil, without synthetic pesticides and sprays. But, if I had to choose a food that I think is most super – well, firstly, I would find it hard to choose between eggs (especially the yolks), animal bones and marrow, animal fat, fish and butterfat. Bone stock is an incredibly rich source of minerals – especially calcium and trace elements pulled from bone, cartilage and vegetables as they cook, all in a bio – available form.Bone stock ‘spares’ protein. Those ‘real’ stocks you see advertised on tv? So, that soup above. Gluten Free/Dairy Free 6 – 8 wings

It must have been 1996 when I first tried to make Seville orange marmalade. I was still at Drama school and living at the far end of Camden Town (which meant it was really Mornington Crescent) in a flat so near the railway line it seemed to lean slightly with every passing train. Other than the intrusion by the 5 32 from Euston (then the 6 02, the 6 32…) it was a great flat, small but well-formed, the top floor of a townhouse renovated by a young architect called Glynn. It was intended to be home, but then his new girlfriend refused to get used to the trains, or the stairs, or the backside of Camden, so they went to live at her flat. He didn’t want to rent it out properly, so the flat was sitting empty. Glynn worked with my best friend Joanna, and I just happened to pass by at the office at right moment. The kitchen, which was in the corner of the living room, was small but extremely practical, as was a big table, that also functioned as a work surface. Seville Orange marmalade
