Crab Stuffed Portabella Mushroom Caps
Crab Stuffed Portabella Mushroom Caps is a new recipe for me. As a plant-leaning home chef, I love mushrooms and use them often. When I was a twenty-something, I would often serve button-mushrooms with a cheesy crab filling at a party I was hosting. A popular, and time-consuming, appetizer amongst my friends. Not really seeing […]

Dairy-Free Mango Gelato
Dairy-free Mango Gelato is a perfect desert to enjoy while eating on the Mediterranean Diet lifestyle. Olive Sunshine’s Mango Gelato is a low-sugar recipe, relying only on the sweetness from the fruit and real maple syrup.

Italian Farro with Brussels Sprouts and Sundried Tomatoes
Italian Farro with Brussels Sprouts and Sundried Tomatoes is a new dish for us. I only started eating farro when we started this Mediterranean journey as I rarely saw it in the grocery store or in restaurants. Now, I find Farro more frequently on menus and restaurants.

Cheesy Quinoa Bean Enchiladas
Cheesy Quinoa Bean Enchiladas are vegan, full of whole grains and simply delicious. In fact, it is challenging for me to write about this recipe because it makes me want to stop writing and make them. I am crazy for these enchiladas.

Pomegranate Quinoa and Goat Cheese Salad
It is pomegranate season, and it is the perfect time for Olive Sunshine’s Pomegranate Quinoa and Goat Cheese Salad. What I love about this salad is it takes me five minutes to throw it together. Pomegranates are beautiful. They are refreshingly sweet and tart on this simple salad. The Quinoa gives it a nutty, chewiness […]
Easy Vegan Condensed Milk
Easy Vegan Condensed Milk is delicious and sweetened. It is also a game changer for me. I have not had sweetened condensed milk in more than thirty years. I realize this omission ages me, but it is a fact. Any dessert made with sweetened condensed milk has been off my list. I am not saying […]

A healthy Cold Smoked Salmon Breakfast Sandwich is a decadent hand-held treat. I had a couple of friends stay the night and I wanted to make a healthy breakfast that was not too much work. Typically, I would make a nice brunch for overnight guests, but we had a busy morning planned full of physical […]
