Salsa is a terrific snack. Its primary components are vegetables and its acidity, heat, and natural sweetness satisfy in a guilt-free way. It is no wonder that every grocery store sells so many varieties of salsa. We can walk down the condiment aisle and expect to be able to choose from a variety of roasted, [...]
As the last scrumptious jars of Green Goddess Organics Heirloom Tomatoes disappear from my shelves I am reminded of the misty fresh sea air in Monterey. Last fall, just before moving back east, my buddies Katie, Robin, Gerick and I canned a heaping pile of the most juicy ripe tomatoes we could find to carry [...]
When I was a kid, I was an exceptionally good eater. Perhaps this was due to the amount of time I spent with my mom in the kitchen, watching her create beautiful and aromatic dishes, helping her dice and stir and season. How could I not eat something that I had just spent the last [...]

Fall season is here though, and with it brings the awesome earthy, organic flavors of squash, apples and mushrooms. I gotta say, it might be my favorite season of the food calendar. [...]
Finally. BLT season is here! Easily one of my favorite food seasons (along with stone fruit season, green garlic season, etc…). I freely admit that for the last four days I have eaten a BLT at least twice a day. Now obviously, most people can figure out how to make a BLT. I thought I [...]
