Take A Happy Pill
Posted in Disease Prevention, Herbal Medicine on Jun 28th, 2010
Once again I have been reminded that all the world’s a pharmacy. Remember last Spring how I made a whole big whopper of a deal about My Green Thumb?

A Raw Trip To The French Countryside
Posted in Dessert, Dips, Entree, Recipe, Vegan, Veggie Side on Jun 24th, 2010
By Guest Blogger Yafa Sakkejha
I made dinner for my housemates last night – who aren’t raw vegans – and they adored the recipes, inspired from the French countryside. I looked through Julia Child’s classic French cookbook and modified recipes – for example, by using healthy raw fats instead of butter (i.e. macadamia nuts), and eliminating the heating process. Et voila.
Caesar Salad- Hold The Anchovies
Posted in Dips, Recipe, Salad, Sauces, Vegan, Veggie Side on Jun 23rd, 2010
Contrary to popular belief, I am not a strict vegan. As my friend Elana, who was once macrobiotic and is now indulging in raw cheeses and fish says, “labels are for tin cans”. I agree. But I have my limits when it comes to eating foods that once had eyes.
Can’t Stop Sipping
Posted in Raw, Recipe, Smart Choices on Jun 21st, 2010
I can’t stop sipping. I can’t! Ever since I started experimenting with recipes for my new ebook Summer Sipping and testing out all the sweet treats my delicious readers sent in, I just can’t stop mixing goodies up in my blender and sipping the day away with these delightfully refreshing bevvies.
Drinking My Sunscreen
Posted in Disease Prevention, Raw, Recipe on Jun 18th, 2010
I was not at all surprised a few weeks back when I wrote about my preferred sunscreen, that there were many extreme opinions on the matter. Actually, most opinions, I think were drastically against me on this and I am a-okay with that. I don’t mind the aggression really, better than indifference if you ask me.
A Summer In Paris
Posted in Bread/Baking, Dessert, gluten free, Recipe on Jun 16th, 2010
There are two ways that I come up with recipes.
1. I am bored and want to play and since my home is really a giant kitchen, that is where a lot of playing happens.
2. I bought something thinking I would do something with it, it moves towards the land of rotten and I get desperate and start searching for something to do with it.
Taste Of The Tropics: Pineapple Delights

I first learned about Meghan in 2009 with her first tutorial, the Green Smoothie Cleanse! I made 3 green smoothies a day for 3 days with Meghan and learned more about real nutrition during that week than I had in my entire life. I blogged about my experience and I can honestly say it changed my life.
Strawberry Sorbet Love
Posted in Dessert, Raw, Recipe, Smart Choices, Treat on Jun 14th, 2010
Being a superfood junkie, as I am, you know that I am all over the berries when they start showing their sweet, shiny curves at the market. Locally grown, seasonal, and delicious superfoods are as sexy to me as a man in bottom delighting jeans, a just small enough white t-shirt just and flip flops. I’ll take a heaping serving of both, thank you very much.
Dinner on Sunday is the way we go with my family and I am usually pooped out come Sunday night as my Sunday is like most people’s Wednesday in my work week and I am often put in charge of one dish or another. When, after a particularly hectic day, my momma declared “Meghan, you are in charge of dessert”, I did that thing that parents the world over hate that their kids do. I walked into my parents kitchen, opened the fridge, stared in and waited for a pile of ingredients to dance their merry dance together and proclaim themselves the perfect combination of things to make the perfect thing with.
As you know (you better know!), I have a Healing with Superfoods workshop coming up on Sunday. Sad to say but it is my very last workshop until the fall and there are only a child’s size handful of spots left. Sarah, over at That’s Fit wanted the inside scoop on how we, over here at Making Love In The Kitchen, feel about our superfoods. With the help of my delightful comrade and nutritionista Cara Rice, we told her!
As Sweet As A Cupcake
Posted in Bread/Baking, Recipe on Jun 9th, 2010
Is there really anything better than cake for breakfast? Not too long ago, I was hosting a private cooking class for a deliciously delightful family. I had sent over the proposed menu for the meal, and received a reply back requesting we have muffins for dessert.
Kale chips are kinda gearing towards the crack of healthy food addicts. Is that terribly un-PC to say? I’m over it. These crispy, crunchy, light and tasty flavour absorbers are just so gosh-darnitt delicious that when I started experimenting with them, well, I just couldn’t stop. You know how that song goes? Right? I believe I must use the stylings of Depeche Mode to truly describe how I feel…
