For those of you who know me, you are aware of the thought that goes into most everything I eat. I say "most" because I am not perfect, and my quest for clean, healthful food is sometimes overshadowed by a craving, or maybe making the decision to eat something - usually in a restaurant - that I know is laden with chemicals. The one thing I can share with you, is that I feel wonderful when eating natural, "clean" foods. When I make poor eating decisions, my body suffers for it, and I experience painful and frustrating symptoms. Needless to say, one of my goals in life is to make healthier food decisions, and to share anything I might learn along the way with those who tell me they are tired of "feeling like crap". What we eat is SO relevant to our overall health and the way we feel on a daily basis.
When trying to minimize exposure to toxic chemicals/pesticides, I believe it is always best to choose organic food. However, availablity and cost could limit choices. I've had so many friends ask me "Where do I start?" because it feels so overwhelming to them.
While doing some research, I came across TheDailyGreen and found an article that lists the top 12 foods to eat organic due to pesticide residue, and also 10 foods you don't have to buy organic. It's a good start to help you along your journey of wiser eating habits!

With historians from around the world set to arrive in America’s greatest eating town for the AHA’s annual meeting, I thought it appropriate to post a couple paragraphs about the history of my favorite restaurant in New Orleans. After the days panels are done, the streetcar line down St. Charles Ave. to Commander’s Palace is a trip well worth making.
The most renowned restaurant in New Orleans’s history was never located in the French Quarter. Commander’s Palace opened in 1880 at the corner of Washington and Coliseum in the Garden District of the greater Uptown area, and the restaurant has kept the original location ever since. Emile Commander, the restaurant’s founder, wished to take advantage of the demands for food created by an influx of new money Americans (i.e. Anglo-Saxons) seeking a separate space from Creoles in the blocks surrounding the St. Charles railway line. Following the fashionable architectural trends of the neighborhood, Commander’s featured a stately “Painted Lady” Victorian design complete with the signature hexagonal tower at the street-side corner.
Commander’s immediately entered into a food market both divided and inspired by race and culture. Older Creoles had long distanced themselves from the Anglo incursions and created self-contained neighborhoods with a profusion of restaurants serving their food. African Americans influenced food ways and culinary reputations of New Orleans by serving as cooks—with a certain culinary creative license—in the homes of wealthy city residents. The peripatetic service-work of these African American cooks brought them into cafes, eating houses, boardinghouses, upscale restaurants, and kitchens of neighborhoods throughout turn of the century New Orleans. The most famous cookbook of the time—really the first cookbook to proclaim a Creole culinary style that was not only dominate within New Orleans but beyond the achievements of French haute cuisine—featured an African American woman as the lone chef in the book’s only color plate. Such placement reflects the prominent influence of African Americans in the dominate cuisine of New Orleans while simultaneously hinting at a continued role that African Americans would play in the kitchens of New Orleans rising service economy.


Updated: May 18, 2021
I spent most of the past four months in Northern California at my dad’s house. After my mom died everyone converged on the house, and in short order a lot of other things fell apart. No one went home for a long time. I made some strange decisions about what to bring when I loaded the car that initial morning – watercolors, a stack of cookbooks, my camera, a favorite knife, a huge bin full of spices. I thought about bringing my favorite donabe, but was worried it could break and grabbed my pasta machine instead. Not a bad call – a lot of pasta was made! My nephew is especially enthusiastic about it, so I decided to branch out to a new shape – cavatelli.
The move to cavatelli was partially out of necessity. My workhorse, the Atlas pasta machine, has issues at my dad’s house. There is nothing to clamp it on to. Every countertop and table is too thick. It’s maddening. I noticed the clamp on the cavatelli maker seemed like it might be wider, so I thought we’d try it instead. It is also worth mentioning, I’ve been meaning to buy a cavatelli maker for years. Ragazza, a sweet little Italian spot, was just up the street from where we lived in San Francisco. The owner Sharon tipped me off to how she made their cavatelli from scratch with a little hand-cranked machine (something like this one) – and I’ve meant to get my hands on once since. This seemed like the right time.
About this Cavatelli Recipe
After a good amount of experimenting, I’ve settled on the following as my basic cavatelli dough and technique. Once you master it, the variations you can explore are endless (see below). The cavatelli machine likes pasta dough that’s not-too-wet and not-too-dry. If you hit the sweet spot, you’ll be able to crank out a pound of cavatelli incredibly quickly. If your dough is getting stuck in your machine, pat it with flour, dust off any excess, and try again. You’ll eventually get a feel for it!
What if I don’t have a Cavatelli Machine?
Not a big deal! You can make it by hand a number of other ways. Here’s a page that demonstrates how to shape cavatelli with a ridged board, fork, or grater. I’ve also seen it shaped traditionally in Puglia using something like a butter knife.
What Flour Should I Use?
Cavatelli is traditionally made with durum wheat semolina flour. But, if you don’t have that on hand, don’t let it stop you. Last week I was out of semolina flour, so the cavatelli you see pictured here was made with “00” flour. “00” is powder-fine and made with low gluten, soft wheat flour. If you don’t have “00” you can certainly use all-purpose flour. A long way of saying, make cavatelli with 100% semolina flour if you have it, or use equal parts “00” and semolina, or just “00″….go for the all-purpose flour if that’s what you have.
How To Freeze Cavatelli
Freezing is my preferred method of storing any cavatelli I’m not cooking immediately. Arrange freshly made, uncooked cavatelli across a floured baking sheet. Try to make sure they’re in a single layer. Freeze for a couple of hours, and then transfer to double layer plastic bags. You can freeze for up to a couple of months. And you can cook straight from the freezer. No need to thaw, just dump the cavatelli into boiling salted water, and increase the cooking time a bit.
In the recipe below you can see how you can tweak basic cavatelli pasta dough by adding different seasonings and spices. I wanted to make a bright, sunny plate of pasta with lots of roasted yellow and orange vegetables and ingredients like cauliflower, golden yellow beets, and winter squash (pictured above). I added turmeric and black pepper to the pasta dough for a little flavor, color, and boost. The possibilities are endless here.
You can also play around with the water. In place of water you can use vegetable juices, purees, stocks or broths, anything of that sort is fair game.
Making fresh pasta is one of my favorite things to do. It’s even better when you have others around to help, taking turns in shifts. I did a basic primer on making homemade pasta a while ago, if you love fettuccine noodles or anything along those lines, start there. You can also try making gnocchi (it’s perfect with this pesto), here’s a beautiful beet fettuccine, and a favorite simple tomato sauce. And all my pasta recipes live here. Enjoy!

A balanced diet is the key to health and reduction in risk of illness such as heart disease, cancers cells, osteoporosis and Alzheimer’s disease. Furthermore, a balanced diet plan will certainly assist you to keep a healthy and balanced weight and keep you feeling and looking your ideal. A balanced diet plan contains adequate protein, carb and fat from healthy food resources which provide several vitamins and minerals essential for wellness. Eating a balanced diet plan indicates selecting a variety of foods and beverages from all the food groups. It likewise means eating particular things in moderation, specifically saturated fat, Trans fat, cholesterol, improved sugar, salt and alcohol. The objective is to take in nutrients you need for health at the recommended degrees.
Main examples of a balanced eating pattern are the USDA Food Guide at MyPyramid.gov and the Dietary Approaches to Quit Hypertension. Since, both consuming patterns stress fruits, veggies and entire grains, in addition to reduced or no-fat dairy items, and lean pet healthy proteins. Fish is recommended a minimum of 2 times per week, beans, nuts and seeds are encouraged, and unsaturated fats are constantly the fats of option – like olive oil. Your balanced 3 week diet plan needs to be planned at your own calorie degree, and part size must be regular. So, you wish to get one of the most nutrients for the calories by choosing food with a high-nutrient thickness. Additionally, nutrient-dense foods provide ample amounts of nutrients and fairly few calories, such as fresh fruit and vegetables, lean meat and fish, and whole grains and beans.
The amount of calories an individual needs from a balanced diet for power and regular body function varies. It is based upon age, sex and task degree. The more energetic you are through physical activity the a lot more calories your body will certainly need to function. As a basic guideline, grown-up ladies call for 1,800 to 2,200 calories daily; grown-up males require 2,200 to 2,800 calories each day. If you are aiming to drop weight a healthy and balanced way to attain this is to decrease your total caloric consumption by 500 calories daily for a weight reduction of one pound each week. Nevertheless, it is important not to eat much less compared to 1,200 calories each day in order to provide the body with the nutrients it requires. Additionally, Protein is most likely essential for the development of muscle cells, as well as hormones and enzymes. A balanced diet should consist of 10 to 20 percent protein. Protein can be discovered in animal and plant resources.

St. Monica sponsors the monthly Loaves & Fishes Food Drive, which helps provide food to the Westside Food Bank and the St. Joseph Center Food Bank. The food is distributed to individuals and families in need in our local community, and to organizations that work with people in need. Help us make sure that everyone can get the nutrition that they need.
Our Loaves & Fishes Food Drive has gone virtual this summer! During this Safer-at-Home time, our community partners have asked us to support them with cash donations rather than with the in-kind food donations we usually share. By doing so, we can help them buy massive quantities of needed food in bulk ($1 feeds four people), and deliver that food more safely to those who need it.
This month we are focusing on helping the Westside Food Bank, a great community organization that provides food to individuals, and to over 50 local agencies that serve people in need.

Smart & Safe Detox & Cleanse Methods
What Are Toxins
Typically, detox diets are marketed under the guise of flushing out toxins. Toxins can range in definition depending on whom you talk to. Many people believe that toxins are abundant in processed foods in the form of preservatives, and in our natural environment. Cleanses offer you a way to rid yourself of these toxins. Unfortunately, toxins aren’t usually found trapped in your digestive tract.
Toxins can be present in the food you take in, the water you drink, and the air you breathe. For detox diets and cleanses that advocate eating only raw organic fruits and vegetables, it’s important to know that even these are not safe from toxins.
Get to know the real facts and improve your health and beauty now.
Detox Versus Cleanse
Cleansing or detox diets are not new; they’ve been around for more than five thousand years, according to the American Dietetics Association (ADA). They used to be an annual ritual bodily and spiritual cleansing – a cleansing of the body and the soul. Examples of cleansing diets include juice fasting; mono dieting, which advocates the consumption of one food, like grapefruit or grapes; and raw food diets.
A detox typically describes some process that will rid your body of toxins that have supposedly built up in your system.
A cleanse can be seen as a spring cleaning for your body, where focus is placed on eating clean, with whole nutrient rich foods and eliminating processed and junk food that in turn supports the body’s natural detoxification processes.
Safe, Natural And Effective Detox And Cleanse Methods
We know that the body has a natural detox system that uses both the kidneys and liver to rid your body of toxins.

Recipes / Cooking
Jack Paster, January 2012
When grilling fish “steaks” (e.g. swordfish, salmon, halibut, Wahoo, cobia, etc.) of uniform thickness and firmness, it is OK to cook them directly on the grill grates so long as they are prepared with cooking oil/spray. (PAM “grilling” Spray is effective) Grill should be pre-heated to “medium-high” setting before placing the fish steaks on the grates. If fish steaks seem to be browning too fast, turn down to the “medium” setting until they are cooked to preference. The steaks should be turned only once using a generously sized spatula.
When grilling fish “fillets” (e.g. grouper, larger snapper, salmon, etc.) of uneven thickness, it is better to use a wire fish basket having three height settings. Since the basket will sit on top of the heated grill grates, you can use the “high” or “medium-high” temp settings. One of the advantages of using a fish basket is that you can easily fold the thinner part of the fillet over in an attempt to gain uniform thickness and doneness.
A second advantage is that you can “nest” the fillets on one wire surface of the basket and position the height setting of the other variable surface to fish thickness. The fish will stay in place within the basket as you are grilling on one side and turning it over to complete the cooking process. A final advantage is that the fillets hold together better than if they were applied directly to the grill grate. No spatula is needed with a fish basket, and grill clean up is easier.
Grilling is typically not recommended for thin or “flaky” fish fillets (e.g. yellow-tailed snapper, cod, pompano, flounder, etc.). Generally, these fillets are sautéed, steamed or oven baked with various preparation techniques.
Grilling time and fish doneness are variables to be mastered by the cook. The thickness and size of the steaks or the fillets, along with the grill temperature setting, determines grill time. Also, the preference of the diner must be considered. Some folks like the served fish to be slightly opaque, highly moist and – perhaps- not quite fully cooked. Other folks would be revolted by that same serving. “Ya gotta know the customer preferences, and ya gotta deliver the goods to the customers’ wishes.”
One constant rule: Do not over-cook fish.
PREPARING AND SERVING SUGGESTIONS:
For preparing either fish steaks or fillets for grilling, keep it simple. Apply canola or some other high-temp tolerant oil liberally to both sides of the fish to be cooked, then salt and pepper both sides to preference. Olive oil is not recommended.
During grilling of fish steaks, you may wish to baste the steaks. A simple basting mixture of half melted butter and half lemon juice works well when cooking firm fish species such as swordfish steaks. No basting is necessary on more oily fish such as salmon.
Dozens of bottled sauces are available for marinating and basting fish; but they are not needed. They are only mildly effective in flavoring the fish during the preparation and grilling phases. Besides, these sauces tend to make a mess of your grill grates, burners and under-carriage.
Sauces applied “after” the fish is grilled and plated can have grand results. Two bottled sauces can be effectively used with mild-tasting grilled fish such as grouper. Fischer & Wieser offer a “Mango Ginger Habanero” sauce, and Earth & Vine markets a “Mango Tequila Jalapeno” sauce. Despite the hot pepper ingredients, neither is spicy enough to turn off sensitive palates. Simply warm these sauces in a bowl in the microwave oven, then spoon the sauce over the plated fish. Serve plated fish with rice pilaf, green beans or asparagus, and mango salsa for a delicious and eye-pleasing entrée.
For grilled swordfish, salmon or grouper, try the outstanding sauce recipe given below. (Serves 4 people)
- 2 or 3 tablespoons of Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons of freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons of grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 to 3 tablespoons of chopped fresh basil
- 3 tablespoons of chopped fresh parsley
- Half teaspoon of salt
- Half teaspoon of ground pepper
- 4 medium tomatoes (2 coarsely chopped, 2 thinly sliced
- 4 swordfish steaks (cut about three-quarters of an inch thick, and about 2 lbs. or more in total weight)
Before the steaks or fillets are to be grilled, stir together the mustard, lemon juice, olive oil, Parmesan cheese, basil, parsley, salt, pepper, and chopped tomatoes in a small bowl. Let it stand at room temp. (Do not refrigerate the mixture). Grill fish (see above grilling instructions). Arrange two tomatoes slices on each plate (slightly over-lapping), set grilled fish on top of sliced tomatoes, and spoon sauce mixture generously over fish. Serve immediately with choice of green veggies and rice or risotto for a fine presentation.

We’re living in a world where the fitness game has become the most competitive in nature. You could be an athlete, a health fitness freak who loves the gym more than home or you could be someone who is just trying to work on their health before it’s too late. Whatever it is, along with the right diet and performing the correct set of exercises every day, there’s another thing that has come into the picture these days—the protein powders.
When you say ‘protein powder’ what comes to your mind first? Whey protein, isn’t it? Protein powders and snacks pumped with proteins have become the new ordeal these days to supplement the protein intake of the body. This is because the food that you eat isn’t sufficient to meet the protein requirements of the body, especially when you are working out. For protein is one of the main elements to build muscles of your body. However, the beauty that lays within the world of protein powders is the versatility element that they come with. You don’t have to have them at the conjunction period before you begin your workout, but you can also have your protein powders after having incorporated them into the breakfast that you love eating first thing in the morning every day. You can also mix it with yogurt and eat it as a snack, you can also include it while baking your banana bread. If you’re new to this world, then it would be hard for you to choose one particular protein powder that is right for your body. So, how can we know the difference and what is right for us?
For the basics, two types of protein powders are easily available in the market right now—the vegan variety and the whey variety. And now allow us to give a whirlwind tour about the difference that both of these varieties come with.
The Vegan Protein Powder
The vegan protein is popularly known as plant-based protein by many and it has a massively growing fan base in current times. These proteins are derived from isolated proteins that come from vegetables, grains, seeds, and fruits. The most common ones being sunflower, hemp, pea, rice, pumpkin, etc. As they are derived from plants only, the vegan protein powders become an excellent choice for vegetarians and vegans. Vegan proteins are dairy-free and gluten-free in nature and they are considered to be the best protein powder options for those who have sensitive stomachs. Another good thing about vegan proteins is that they are hypoallergenic in nature meaning that there are very minimal chances that your body might respond negatively after its consumption. In fact, for those who have sensitive stomachs, consuming vegan protein will help strengthen their digestive system as vegan protein powders are packed with digestive enzymes and fibers that ease absorption and digestion. One important point to note here is that vegan protein powders don’t come with a complete profile of amino acid. However, they do contain at least 9 of the essential ones that cannot be formed in our human body and have to be taken through supplements or food. Several types of research show how consuming vegan protein powder has helped better the heart’s health and also lower the blood pressure levels of the body.
The Whey Protein Powder
Whey protein is considered to be one of the two proteins that can be derived from milk. The second one is casein. Have you observed the liquid floating whenever you open yogurt or milk? That liquid is nothing but whey. This protein comes with a complete profile of amino acids, unlike the vegan counterpart. Whey protein has been lauded by fitness enthusiasts for ages for its ability to help promote and maintain the muscle growth of the body. When this protein powder intake is clubbed with an active lifestyle, the results are amazing! Whey protein isolates hydrolyzed whey protein, and whey protein concentrate is the variations of whey proteins that are available right now. Whey isolate is known to have more protein content and lesser levels of lactose, fats, and carbs in it. Whey protein concentrate has 80% of the protein in it and whey protein isolate has 90%. Consuming whey protein powder helps in boosting the immune system of the body and also helps in detoxification.
Ultimately, what we can conclude here is that your choice of protein powder completely depends on what your body goals are and how the functioning of your body is. Therefore, it’s best advised to consult a nutritionist before zeroing on your protein powder choice.


Yesterday I was at the grocery store and picked up two jars of the new Ragu Old World Style sauces in Sweet Tomato Basil and Margherita courtesy of MomCentral. One of the staples we always have in our house is jarred pasta sauce, along with crushed and diced or stewed tomatoes and garlic. I love to make home-made pizza and have found that the pizza sauces (except one brand that I buy from Roche Bros.) are too rich, so use pasta sauce instead.
I used the Margherita sauce on home-made pizza dough and then covered it in Mozzarella cheese and the added some other veggies to help beef up the nutrition. If you're stuck on what to make, the Ragu site also has recipes for the new sauces, including an upside down deep dish pizza which I was originally going to make but forgot to thaw the ground beef. C'est la vie, right?
The sauce was flavorful, and didn't have that weird aftertaste that some jarred sauces can. The best part is that it's got a full serving of vegetables per half-cup of sauce. Lord knows I'm always looking for ways to make H eat more greens! (or reds in this case).


Kenya Bureau of Standards (KEBS) has banned several maize flour brands that don’t meet the threshold of healthy food given that ugali is a staple food in Kenya.
KEBS has established that certain maize meals doing supplies in the country are poisonous supplying higher than standardized aflatoxin in the market.
Following continued market surveillance as well as multiple public reports, @KEBS_ke has noted that some brands of maize meal products (Unga wa Ugali) offered for sale do not meet the requirements of Kenya Standards.
We, therefore, wish to inform the public that: pic.twitter.com/Qc7JfLBFxS
— KEBS KENYA (@KEBS_ke) November 9, 2019
The Kenya Bureau of Standard has therefore ordered manufacturers to recall five maize flour brands from the market citing high levels of aflatoxin. The brands are Dola Maize Meal, Kifaru Maize Meal, Starehe Maize Meal, 210 Maize Meal, Jembe Maize Meal.
Last week, Kebs banned several peanut butter brands for high aflatoxin contents.

we started off day one of five by waking up early to cook our breakfast and lunch. breakfast consisted of scrambled eggs (two for each of us) and a dab of whole milk. tyler makes the best eggs (even without salt or oil) so he took care of that while i prepared the pasta and sauce.
if you know me, you know i love pasta. mostly plain pasta with butter, maybe some pesto... i could eat it every day, all day. i make it quite often. so i threw 2.5 cups in some boiling water and continued to get ready for the day.
forgot to set a timer. whoops.
as i strained the grains, i accidentally dropped some of said-overcooked pasta on the kitchen floor. i picked it up and threw it back in the pot. (don't judge me - you would have done the same!)
at work, i enjoyed a snack of 1/2 banana and some peanut butter and gulped down my overcooked pasta with sauce. felt pretty good, albeit a little tired.
more out of boredom than anything, i did drink almost a gallon of water.
my spirits are high. my blood sugar levels are stable. and the chances i'll cheat before tyler gets home remain low.
off to boil my lentils. (water) cheers!

They have strong relationships with the best livestock farmers in the North and South Island, who look after their animals.

Farms that provide our pork are PigCare™ certified which we consider a high standard for animal welfare.
We only work with New Zealand’s farmers who are committed to care well for their animals. Working with our partners, we can trace our meat all the way from paddock to plate to ensure quality.
Where does our pork, beef and lamb come from?
Based in Auckland, the Neat Meat Company supplies us with top quality pork, beef and lamb from carefully selected farmers. Being fully traceable from the paddock to the shops means we know exactly which farms it came from, and when, to guarantee top quality.
The animals are farmed ethically and responsibly. They are raised according to New Zealand’s world class animal husbandry requirements, including our welfare codes. Farms that supply pork, beef, or lamb to The Neat Meat Company don’t use growth hormones. All animals are fed with either, or a mixture of, grass, hay, non-GMO corn or maize, and other feed sources as required, to provide a nutritionally balanced diet.

Those farms are independently audited each year and thoroughly checked against the PigCare™ standards, which includes New Zealand’s Animal Code of Welfare 2010. They must also comply with New Zealand’s stringent food safety standards. All our bacon can be traced back to a PigCare™ accredited farm. Look for the PigCare™ logo on all our bacon packs.

Most people think of ‘Free-Range’ as ‘living outdoors’. Full stop. For pigs we know they need more than that. Pigs need to be provided with shelter such as huts in the paddock, so while they have free access to the outdoors they also have shelter and a comfortable warm and dry bed. We believe that there are some other times when, for the wellbeing of the animal, they need to spend a short amount of time indoors. In addition to generally needing shelter they’re also taken indoors, not in cages, to ensure they can thrive after weaning when they are young growing pigs or if required or directed by relevant authorities, for example in the case of an exotic disease outbreak.
All our Free-Range pork is raised with the animals’ well-being first and foremost. When we say ‘Free-Range’, that means the animals from which the pork comes can run around outdoors, at will. Shelter is provided and the pigs must be able to move in and out of the shelter, and move freely around the paddocks. They are only brought inside when it’s in the very best interests of the animal. In their entire lifetime, these pigs will spend at least 90% of their life outdoors. We think it’s better that way. Look for the Free-Range logo on our sausage packs.
Free-Range Wild Venison
The venison that goes into our Venison & Red Wine sausages is raised in some of the most wild and beautiful landscapes on Earth – the pristine Fiordland region of Southland and the dramatic craggy landscape of Otago.
In this natural mountain country, deer can grow and live naturally. Fare Game is the company that supplies Harrington’s with top quality free-range venison. Their small, expert team of professional hunters is based in Southland and Central Otago. Fare Game’s processing plant is Export Certified by MPI, and regularly inspected by independent AsureQuality quality and food safety professionals.
Free-Range Beef, Raised in New Zealand
In the grasslands of the Taupo catchment area, the finest beef is raised in superb natural conditions. It’s where our beef comes from. The soil is rich in nutrients, so it’s prime grazing country, and livestock that live here are grass-fed – the most natural and balanced food for them. No growth hormones are used and antibiotics are only used to treat sickness and prescribed by a registered veterinarian.
No external supplements are added to their diet. No palm kernel, growth hormones or antibiotics. Instead, they live healthily on a natural diet of grass and water. A relatively mild climate means they spend most of their lives outside but are brought inside in bad weather or where needed for excellent veterinary care, which they receive through life.
Free-Range New Zealand Lamb
As a country famous for sheep and lamb, our lambs live on some of the best grazing pasture in the world. We only use New Zealand lamb – all local lamb is Free-Range, pasture-raised and grass-fed. In times of drought the lambs might be given a supplement of hay (dried grasses). It’s good to know that it’s illegal to use hormones in New Zealand and antibiotics are only used to treat sickness and prescribed by a registered veterinarian.
We’re proud of our ethical stance and our commitment to animal welfare, so if you’d like to contact us directly any time with questions and comments about it we’d be happy to tell you more, phone us on 04 380 6347 or email us here
