Operation Yummy Bum: Protein for Vegetarians
I am a DISASTER in the kitchen. In our house, Mr. Borucki does 90% of the shopping and almost all the food-prep that requires an actual recipe or heat. I’m good at other things, like obsessive vacuuming and keeping our daily dirty laundry pile from swallowing us whole. It’s a very harmonious arrangement. Because of … (Read More)

Yummy Monday: Vegan Date Night w/ Mike Perrine
I’m sad. This is the last installment in my mini-series of three recipe videos with my best raw food buddy, Mike Perrine.

Yummy Monday: Vegan Salad Dressing w/ Mike Perrine

The only thing I wanted during that whole pregnancy was sausage, pepper and onion sandwiches from Miggy’s, a neighborhood Italian grocery store, and M&Ms. … (Read More)
