Vegan Wheat Berries With Fresh Asparagus Crimini Mushrooms and Red Bell Pepper
An Extra Cup of Wheat Berries Its funny how new recipes get developed. The other day I was cleaning my refrigerator (a rare occurrence) and I came across some organic wheat berries in a brown paper bag. These were evidently left over from my Hearty Vegan Bean Chili with Wheat Berries recipe I posted in February. I realized that it was unlikely that I would ever think of cooking these unless they were more "visible" so I put them in a large glass jar. Unfortunately, the jar wasnt big enough so I had an extra cup of wheat berries on my hands. So I soaked them overnight which gave me some time to figure out what to do with them. The next morning I cooked them up and set them aside and headed out to the market to look for other ingredients. I found some beautiful fresh asparagus and some other veggies which all ended up in this dish. Other than the time it takes to cook wheat berries, the dish cooks up in minutes. You can always cook wheat berries in advance and freeze them for u...

Inspired at the Airport My daughter and I just spent a lovely four days in Sedona. Besides the beautiful red rocks and relaxing spa treatments, we were blown away with the food. One restaurant was better than the other. So when we got to the Phoenix airport to go home, we were kind of bummed that our last meal would probably be terrible. I mean, whens the last time you had a good meal at an airport? We were pretty shocked when we walked into Chelseas Kitchen in Terminal 4. The restaurant itself was large and beautiful and the food was definitely NOT what you would expect at an airport (unless you are in the International Terminal in SFO.) Chelseas Kitchen at the Phoenix Airport The dish that inspired me the most was their kale salad (they were kind enough to make one without the parmesan cheese). It was mix...
Fresh Corn Salad With Red Bell Pepper And Basil
Break corn in half, lay down horizontally and cut off kernels. Fresh Corn - A True Sign of Summer You know its summer when beautiful ears of white or yellow corn are available at very reasonable prices. And although corn is getting a bad name because of its overuse in our society (for example, being made into unhealthful foods like high fructose corn syrup) fresh organic corn is a good source of important nutrients. Besides being high in fiber, corn provides significant amounts of vitamins B1 and B5 (thiamin and pantothenic acid), folate, vitamin C, phosphorus and manganese. Its also high in fiber. Buying "organic" corn ensures you that its not genetically modified. Its Light, Refreshing and Raw This salad is simple to make as well as light and refreshing. And I get to use my newly planted fresh basil from my Herb Garden in Recycled Plastic Tubs. Its funny that people eat raw corn in salads and salsas all the time but rarely pick up a raw corn on the cob. Raw corn on the co...
