I recently watched a video on how David Wolfe made a version of this super healthy, very tasty salad dressing, which is especially good for a youthful looking skin, but naturally has loads of other health benefits as well.

You can make a bigger batch and keep it in the fridge for a day or two or freeze in small […] Continue reading →

This recipe is really easy and tastes so good, that I could  eat a whole bunch of spinach, kale or Swiss chard in this form all at once. You can buy this as a ready made snack in some health shops or vegan restaurants, however it is expensive. Making it yourself is simple and much more economical.

You can, of course, also ring the changes with different spices and herbs, eg: […] Continue reading →

I just got this recipe from my friend Marion and made it today for supper and served it with a slice of gluten free foccaccia with herbs and olives on the side – it is delicious and so quick and easy to prepare. Freeze peeled, cut up mangoes when in season and cheap, then you can prepare this healthy ‘fast food’ when short of time any time during the year. Ingredients: 1 large mango, peeled, stone removed 1/2 onion 1 cup iced , filtered water (or more, depending on how […] Continue reading →
