Review: Whole Foods General Tso’s

The grocery store doesn’t usually make the top of the list when thinking about where to grab dinner. Insert Whole Foods Market General Tso’s meal deal! Vegan General Tso’s to be exact, but don’t let that scare you.  Whole Foods has created a blue ribbon recipe with this one.

Review: Sweet Briar Cafe (Ambler)

Did you know the best ice cream shop in Ambler is also the best farm-to-table dinner spot! At first glance it’s just and ice cream and burger place and because of its long history in town (formerly Cone Heads), but  I’m here to tell you skip the ice cream and make a reservation for a one of a kind farm-to-table dinner - that won’t break the bank.

California Quinoa Salad

Here we have a versatile salad, appeasing to the eyes and the pallet. Loaded with nutrients and so many flavors from the mango, raisins, and peppers, topped with mint and a lime balsamic.

This salad is easy enough to throw together anytime of the week and also delicious enough for a party . Kale nay-sayers give this one a try! 

Bacon Avocado Pasta Salad

When I started thinking up this recipe I had one goal in mind – don’t use mayo! I love summer pasta salads but I try to avoid the guilt of creamy ranch and mayo. I’m always determined to find yummy alternatives and I think this one wins the gold on taste! Bacon and avocado mixed with veggies and whole wheat pasta – no mayo needed!
