If you’re savoring the last of your summer basil harvest, this vibrant pumpkin seed pesto is a beautiful way to celebrate it. Fresh, green, and bursting with flavor, this sauce captures the essence of the season—and can be frozen for a taste of summer sunshine in the colder months.

I love the thick and creamy richness of mayonnaise, especially tossed with steamed potatoes and chopped pickles, or thinly sliced cabbage for a summer picnic salad. Although we eat eggs, I prefer the flavor of egg-free mayo better. This recipe uses soaked cashews along with a few other ingredients. It has such an amazing consistency and flavor.

My garden is going nuts this year. I've never had so much kale! Everything is so lush and beautiful. I planted rows of sweet onions amongst the kale and other vegetables. Little did I know last spring, but allium vegetables are great at deterring aphids.

Happy New Year! Cheers! This is our favorite green juice recipe, in fact, our children think it's the bomb! They love it. Serve it in a pretty glass with a stainless steel or glass straw. I think you'll find that this green juice is very mild tasting and quite enjoyable to drink.

We have a garden full of vibrant, tender collard greens right now—lush, green leaves that inspired me to create these nourishing raw wraps filled with pumpkin seed pâté and served with a gingery cashew butter dipping sauce. These wraps are a refreshing, plant-powered meal that’s naturally grain-free, gluten-free, and full of flavor and texture. Even my children enjoy them! Well—my 8-year-old thinks they're just okay, and the littlest one prefers to nibble on the pâté and cucumber strips, but the rest of the gang devours them with delight.

I have something for you, just in time for 4th of July celebrations.....and no cooking required! I used to think that making tarts was a complicated process, but it is really quite simple.

We've been enjoying our time this week at camp GG's, a name we coined for Grandma and Grandpa's house on the lake in the Midwest. The kids get to spend these endless summer days biking, swimming, water skiing, kayaking, and chasing fireflies at dusk.
