True story: at first glance, my mom thought these were green matzo balls (with lots of parsley). HA! I already made a mint chocolate version that is also drop dead gorgeous. You can play around with the nut butters, swap flax for cocoa, add different extracts…the options are endless! We sell tons of no-bake bites at Alchemy, and matcha is one of the best selling flavors. This is not the recipe we use at Alchemy (top secret!...
I’m going to be honest with you, I’ve never liked granola. I just didn’t get it. Why would you choose to eat granola and yoghurt over perfect eggs for breakfast? But then I made my own (which is always better) and slowly I came around.

Updated March 26, 2019 We love making homemade pizza. Josh is the dough master and I take care of the sauce and toppings. I usually choose a veggie loaded pizza while Josh goes for a sausage or pepperoni pizza. This time I decided to really switch up the toppings. One of my latest pregnancy cravings is peaches.

Updated March 26, 2019 When I woke up yesterday morning, I looked out the window and was blinded by the white, glistening snow that was covering our trees and yard. The view was beautiful, but it is March. I would rather wake up to chirping birds and blooming flowers. We didn’t get a light dusting either, we had 16 inches of fresh snow at our house. Josh headed outside to shovel the driveway, while I got out the butter....

I was amazed at how quickly we put together a homemade pizza. Faster than any pizza delivery boy could get to your door, I promise!...
When you say Barley to me, I think about people living amongst trees, wearing hemp sacks and singing along with the birds. I also think of dry, chewy and bland grain and how I used to despise it when my dad made it. But after my risotto post on Monday, one of my readers asked if she could try doing the baked risotto thing with Basmati rice. That got me thinking what other grains can be used instead of the normal arborio or carnaroli rice used for Risotto....
