From a Local Kitchen: Getting Well Grounded with Kale
Last week I mentioned that I was asked to write a guest blog post for the Seacoast Eat Local series “From a Local Kitchen”. Here’s the excerpted introduction by SEL blogger Debra Kam, and a link to read the full post: Kale and winter greens will be the featured vegetables at our next Winter Farmers’ Market, ...
Curious about health coaching – what it is? how it works?
It occurred to me today, when an article about health coaching came across my desk, that even people who stumble upon or regularly read my blog might be wondering about health coaching. What it is, how it works, whether it serves as alternative or complementary health care, etc.?? So, I’d like to share with you ...
1 Week in the Get Well Grounded Kitchen
I have been asked to contribute a post as a guest blogger for the “From a Local Kitchen” (formerly “From a Seasonal Kitchen”) Series on the Seacoast Eat Local Blog. So, for the next week I’ll be documenting all of my lunches and dinners and will provide my week’s menu along with photos and links ...
Cooking the best with what you’ve got.
I love flipping through cookbooks and sometimes I even make a grocery list and follow one of the recipes to the letter. But most of the time I just take a look around my kitchen and figure out some way to turn the random food I have into a meal. I’m sure there are many ...
Sustainable Seafood
Tonight I attended an event at the University of New Hampshire called Fisheries Research to Plate. It was a really great time. We heard from a few speakers about local fisheries research and how researchers and fishermen (& women) are working together to support a sustainable fisheries system. In between speakers, we were treated to ...
Get Well Grounded, On the Road
Lately things have been a little sleepier than I like it here on the blog. Sorry about that. More recipes, stories, and nutrition info are on the way. I promise. I’m nowhere near out of ideas and just try to keep me from sharing them! This just happens to be a crazy busy time around ...
How to Get Rid of Fruit Flies (the Non-Buddhist Way)
Sometime over the past couple weeks my kitchen has been overrun with fruit flies. It’s not hard to understand why. I do a lot of cooking and most of the kitchen waste I produce is food scraps (yep, I sure am dreaming of moving someplace where I can have a compost pile). Anyhow, when your ...
Chickpeas. Garbanzos. Ceci. It’s All Good.
Over the weekend I cooked up some chickpeas that I started from the dried beans. I often use canned chickpeas because I don’t always think ahead, and I have this recurring misconception that it’s a pain in the you-know-what to make beans from scratch. It’s really not. There’s a little bit of thinking ahead required, ...
Stuffed Winter Squash to Suit the Tastes of Vegetarians & Omni(Carni)vores Alike
I believe I have already done my waxing poetic about winter squash in some of my previous posts (Lovin’ the Winter Squash & Soup Season), so I’ll spare you most of that (can’t make any promises) and get right to the recipes. It’s really only one recipe, but I’m including two versions: veggie (using tofu and ...
Lovin’ the Winter Squash These Days
I love winter squash. There are so many different varieties: butternut, acorn, pumpkins, delicata, and spagetti squash, to name a few. They keep forever in your kitchen/pantry/cellar without going bad, they are incredibly nutrient dense, they’re so sweet and tasty, and they are really great for you for several reasons. Winter squashes are a great ...
