German pancake

May 23, 2016December 18, 2011 by Julia Kline

This is the dish that my mom would always make for special Sunday brunches at our house growing up. It’s easy to make and everybody always loves it. She would serve it with thick-sliced bacon, and some kind of fruit on the side – cantaloupe wedges, mixed berries, etc. Add some fresh-squeezed orange juice and … Read more

Best Guacamole Ever

November 28, 2013December 18, 2011 by Julia Kline

When I saw my friend Philip Calococci making this guac, I thought he was nuts – who puts red peppers in guacamole?? Well I tell you what, it’s GRRREAT! If you’re not a big fan of raw onions, try sauteeing them for a few minutes in a small amount of olive oil – you still … Read more

Thai-Style Kohlrabi Salad

February 15, 2022September 3, 2011 by Julia Kline

Kohlrabi is one of the healthiest vegetables around, but it can be hard to come up with unique ways to prepare it. This salad fits the bill!

It’s delicious and filling as a one-dish meal, or as a side dish along with grilled chicken or some other meat dish. Serves 1-2 as a main dish, or 4-5 as a side dish.

2-3 kohlrabi heads
1 large carrot
2-4 T Thai-style peanut sauce
1/2 c raw peanuts, chopped
1/4 c cilantro, chopped

Grate the kohlrabi and the carrot using the large holes of a cheese grater. If the veggies are particularly wet, drain them a bit, or even wrap them in paper towels to squeeze out the excess moisture.

Stir in the peanut sauce, chopped peanuts and cilantro. Adjust all ingredients to your own personal taste.

If you don’t happen to have veganaise on your shelf, feel free to substitute regular mayonnaise – but then it won’t be as healthy. It keeps in the refrigerator for … Read more

Cilantro-Greens Dip

December 25, 2011September 3, 2011 by Julia Kline

This dip is great for both raw veggies and chips. Its unique pungent flavor comes from the greens powder. Put more for more zip, less for less. Greens powder is an ingredient you find at the health food store, by the way, not the grocery store! If you’re not familiar with it, it’s a highly … Read more
