Hello dear healthy foodies! It's Christine here with a one-of-a-kind Sweet-Tooth Friday: my first interview! Last week my world was rocked when I made gluten-free, dairy-free, egg-free, soy-free and nut-free Pineapple Upside Down cake from Elizabeth Gordon's new book, Allergy-Free Desserts. This week you get to listen in on my chat with Elizabeth herself! How [...]

Lentil soup with…pineapple?
Happy Thursday, everybody. It's the springiest day we've had all year, which means only one thing—lots of melting. If this keeps up, I might even be able to do some trail running this weekend (if I can remember how). My next 50K is two weeks away, and I got in 20 miles on the roads [...]
Black beans, yellow rice
Beans and rice. Health gurus tell us it's a match made in nutritional heaven, since each provides the essential amino acids the other lacks. If beans and rice could talk, they might in a moment of unguarded honesty simultaneously declare, "You complete me." Or, perhaps more ethnically accurate, "Me completas."
I've heard that's a load of [...]
Best Thrive 'pizza' yet!
I've stayed away from fake meat products for a while now, so it's been a long time since I've had any food in quotes. The "pizzas" in Thrive, however, are a different kind of quoted food, since they're not masquerading as real pizzas. "Pizza" just happens to be the most convenient way to describe a food [...]
Sweet-Tooth Friday: Vegan Box of Chocolates
Happy Sweet-Tooth Friday! This is Christine here with an extra special recipe for Valentine's day. Forget the roses this Sunday and whip up a box of my homemade vegan chocolates instead! Don't worry, there are no candy thermometers or boiling hot sugar—just simple stir-together ingredients. I came up with four yummy fillings for a really [...]
Sweet-Tooth Friday: Raw Chia-Carrot Cake
Happy Sweet-Tooth Friday! This is Christine with a very special dessert this week—one that is not only vegan but also gluten-free and raw! I've never made a raw cake before so I was pretty skeptical, but this cake was packed with amazing fresh flavor!
Ch-ch-ch-chia!
Ok my apologies, but there has been a lot of talk about [...]
Robin Robertson interview
As you know if you've been reading over the past few months, almost all of my recent cooking has been from Robin Robertson's newest cookbook, 1,000 Vegan Recipes. Though I'm not a vegan, I recognize that vegan food represents a diet upgrade for me: I don't like eggs, so the only non-vegan part of my [...]
Sweet-Tooth Friday: Two Flax Desserts
Hi guys! Christine here, checking in for your weekly dessert fix! As you may know by now, I love a good baking challenge. So when Matt did a review of some flaxseed from Flaxmatters.com and left a subtle hint for me to come up with a new flax recipe, I was totally in! To be [...]
Sweet-Tooth Friday: Vegan Chocolate Cream Pie
Hi everybody! It's Christine here for Sweet-Tooth Friday, and I can't believe how quickly December is flying by! While enjoying this last week before Christmas, give this Vegan Chocolate Cream pie a whirl. It's so festive with its peppermint and marshmallows, no one will guess it's made from avocados!
A little look back
Not only has December flown [...]
Sweet-Tooth Friday: Vegan Jubilee Bars
Merry Sweet-Tooth Friday! It's Christine here with another holiday dessert. This week I made vegan jubilee bars, which are like miniature versions of the classic Christmas fruitcake. But don't freak out— fruitcake doesn't have to live up to it's rock-hard reputation— these are a soft and delightfully chewy combination of fruit, nuts, and chocolate. They're [...]
Hi there, I'm Matt. I went vegetarian last March, and almost immediately I became a much stronger runner. I recently qualified for the Boston Marathon; now it's on to my first 50-miler!
