This is a popular snack for kids, who may just want the cheese and tomato. You can top with Guacamole and/or Salsa, and Vegan Sour Cream, which is perfect. Ingredients Vegan butter or oil of choice 4 large whole-grain flour t...

Blossom Lady

Jun 22, 2020 08:43 AM

Dinner couldn't be simpler! This delicious little dish cooks so fast, you can make successive batches and the first batch will still be hot by the time you’re finished with the second. Another reason to make it twice: The first batch might be gone before you get to the second. People walking through your kitchen, armed with forks, know how to make this disappear. You can make this with fresh or frozen (either whole-leaf or chopped) spinach. For this dish, they’re pretty much interchangeable. Moreover, Spin...

Broccoli: Scientifically Proven Healthy Recipe

Blossom Lady

Jun 19, 2020 06:51 AM

There are dozens of vegetables that are important for a healthy diet. In a head-to-head competition, one vegetable outshines the rest: broccoli. Lately, broccoli has been gaining a reputation as an excellent vegetable due to its high levels of a particularly beneficial compound called sulforaphane.
