Over the last few weeks we have been doing a lot of juicing at my house. Most of our juices contain tons of spinach and ginger. While I love ginger, if you put too much ginger in the juicer it seriously ruins the juice. It’s crazy because I LOVE ginger, but if you put too much in the juice, it’s way too over powering…to the point it actually burns my throat. Anyway, so we have had our fridge stocked with healthy veggies and when I decided it was time to eat actual food, instead of just drink juice all day, I decided to make this delicious Garlic Ginger Spinach. We had tons of extra ...

Caprese Panini with Tomato, Pesto & Mozzarella
This sandwich is seriously delicious. Not even going to sugar coat it or build it up, it is to.die.for. Make this for lunch, make it for dinner. Don’t wait, do it now. I was picking up my usual at Costco last week: quinoa, lettuce, and some pictures I had ordered, and while making my way back to the produce section, I passed by a ‘bread roadshow'.

After I grabbed my huge bag ...

This Mexican Quinoa has a dash of cheese, which is just enough to satisfy ...
Strawberry Goat Cheese Quinoa Salad
Around this time of the year, I love shopping for berries at the local Asian Farmers Market. They are so cheap ($1 per container of strawberries), and while they won't last for days, if you have a recipe in mind they are perfect. I went a little overboard that weekend with my strawberry purchases. We were hosting a brunch and I had decided to make a strawberry danish, and I had also made fresh Strawberry and Basil Margaritas the night before. So I stocked up, and had some left over. With perfect timing, my friend shared a recipe with me for a Seasonal Strawberry Feta ...
