I grew up in an Italian/French household and pasta and dessert were staples. I really love both but as we know they can pile on the pounds. When I can, I try to subsititute healthier ingredients. Spaghetti Squash is really easy to use in just about any dish in place of pasta. A word of advice the trick is to make sure you cook spaghetti squash ompletely before breaking into strands.
The addition of the bok choy and zucchini not only makes this dish healthier but also satisfying.
I prefer it hot but is also great cold.
ENJOY!

Excellent and Quick Meatless Monday Option for dinner tonight!
I am not quite sure what makes me crave caramel this time of year. Perhaps it is because fall was always caramel apple season when I was growing up.
In addition to making a lot of pumpkin recipes leading up to Thanksgiving, I also find myself experimenting with caramelizing.
If you are not a fan of eggplant, you can always substitute zucchini or broccoli rabe.
ENJOY!

I love kale but I also know a lot of people that are not huge fans of this super-good-for-you food. When I created this salad, that is filling enough for an entire meal, it helped turn kale-no-bees into yes please!
I use quinoa and Trader Joe’s Rice Medley which makes it hardy and nutritious but you can substitute any other grain of choice including Israeli couscous.
ENJOY!
