This is an updated version of my original Sweet Potato 101 video (which was the very first 101 video I ever posted!) We have improved the sound, cut back the length, and shot it in HD!
Here’s what I had to say back in 2007…
Video: How-To Seed A Pomegranate
A Pomegranate is an amazing and delicious fruit that often gets overlooked simply because people don’t know how to get the seeds out! SO I decided it was about time to share my favorite way to seed (or de-seed) a Pomegranate…
Warm Lentil Salad Speckled W/ Kale and Pomegranate Seeds
I believe that everything in life happens for a reason.
I have been wanting to share this Warm Lentil Salad with you guys for years (no exaggeration). It’s a recipe that I learned when I attended The New School of Cooking over 5 years ago it’s been one of my ‘no-fail-go-to-salads’ ever since.
But for whatever reason, it just never made it to the blog, and now I know why…
Persimmons Pomegranate Salad with Butter Lettuce and Arugula
As much as I love the East coast and my Jersey roots there are a few things in California that I would find very, very, very hard to leave behind… the weather (obviously!), the year-round outdoor activities (especially the hiking!), and of course the Farmers markets (aka the availability of amazing, seasonal, top-notch ingredients).
But since having Katie and Jachs, I have found it much harder to peruse the farmers markets like I once did. Rather, I often find myself b-lining it straight to my favorite vendors and buying the same old produce week after week… until now… because I finally decided to join a local CSA (and I am absolutely giddy about it!).

In order to make quick meals there are a handfull of things you need to know. The most important (in my opinon) is knowing how to use your knife (which we also recently updated to HD and hope to post soon!).
Once you’ve got that down all you have to do is grasp a basic understanding of how to handle the ingredients you’re working with and you’ll be good to go!
Clean Eating Turkey ‘Sausage’ Spinach & Mango Skillet
Skillet meals are far and wide one of the simplest ways to pull off a quick, nutritious dinner using whatever ingredients you may have on hand.
The general rule of thumb is veggies, veggies, veggies (and sometimes, even fruit), some form of protein, and spices. From there you can add a little ‘smart-carb’ to the meal (ie. quinoa, brown rice, spaghetti squash, etc.) and you’re ready to go!
The inspiration for this combo came from a new spice mix I discovered…
