Recipe: Spicy Roasted Chickpeas

You could probably eat all of these in one sitting. I came up with these when I was in need of a super simple snack recipe that seemed fancy – which of course is sort of my cooking style in general. The result is easy and in my opinion, better (and healthier) than a bowl of popcorn.
Two Years of Writing a Food Column

Today marks two years of writing my Foodie Underground column. How I have managed to produce a column every single Monday for 104 weeks is beyond me, but somehow it’s still going. Hence the celebratory post and birthday torte recipe. Enjoy!
Kale and Hazelnut Quinoa Cakes

I have a minor obsession with quinoa, as is evidenced by the fact that I keep it on hand at all times and I even make cake with it. It’s delicious I swear.

Enjoy!

An amazing cafe in Nevada City. A back patio surrounded by trees and filled with wrought iron chairs. A drink complete with bee pollen. A late winter afternoon spent sitting in sunshine.

Quinoa spring rolls = amazing. Quinoa, carrots and other deliciousness wrapped in rice paper and sprinkled with brewer’s yeast and pumpkin seeds. Completed with ginger infused soy sauce.
