#Spring has finally sprung, #lettuce rejoice! :) And speaking of lettuces, came across these potted / #readytogrow beauties (😍 almost #art!) at a recent #farmersmarket run. Now thinking of getting some too - any advice / tips on #homegrown / #growyourown lettuce will be appreciated! 🌱💚 #springtime

Time for #refill... And on a good day :) This being said, #Earthday is every day and in all the little things that can be done. Glad to have been able to find a great #tea store that lets one buy a (#stylish :)) metal tin to #reuse and bring back again to the store to be #refilled (among other #earthfriendly things!). What are some of your fave every day #happyearth things and places? #teatime @harneyteas

Looks like a #apropos kohlrabi for the day :) 💚💜 #valentinesday #veggielove (#nouglyproduce !)

Latest #winter #lunch #salad: a happy #marketfresh melange of colors, flavours and textures that doubles down on the #cruciferous. With #kale, spice roasted Brussels sprouts and butternut squash, pomegranate tendrils, toasted almond and shallot vinaigrette. Great for #meatlessmonday, this is seriously addictive and will make anyone eat their Brussels no doubt. Even #kittens can't help themselves apparently ;). 🌱😺 #notasaddesklunch

Making the most of #winter #farmersmarket #veggies and root/cruciferous combos , with some inspo from @meerasodha (recipe via @guardian ): #vegan (sweet here) potato and cabbage curry for a late #breakfast. Did not have chapatis on hand but nothing that could not be fixed with a corn tortilla brushed with coconut oil and slightly pan toasted :). Anyway this is absolutely moorish. And it can be made ahead and stored in the fridge for a few days too (for those Sunday #mealprep fans :)). In fact it just keeps getting better :)👌🌱 #riseandshine

Quick #lunch at @juicegeneration #nyc and taking a minute to give them a shoutout for selling glass #jars and #metalstraws (from @ecojarz) - been using these ones for some time: they are great quality and it is really not an issue to carry them around. And it is always great to see a business being proactive in offering such products and encouraging #reuse when #plasticwaste and #plasticstraws are such a big problem and threat to marine life and the environment. 👍👏 🐢🐳🐬🐟🐠 #ecofriendly #liquidfuel

That time of year again for #cruciferous galore at the #farmersmarket : beautiful colors and actually not a sad or boring time in the kitchen given all the things one can do with them! :) 💚💜💛 #cruciferousvegetables

#tbt for a cold day... #hotchocolate @dandelionchocolate #sf - delicious to drink and #zen + beautiful to look at to boot :) 🌀🍫 #foracoldday #couldhaveoneofthoseaboutnow

Really cold outside in #NYC... But warm inside with a hearty, warming #marketfresh meal in a bowl: coconut curry parsnip & carrot #soup topped with raisins, toasted almonds and black sesame coconut clusters... Seriously moorish and a perfect #meatlessmonday #lunch :) 🔥🌀 #yum

Welcoming this little beauty home 😻 Hopefully a gentle canine friend will join her soon. :) 🐱🐶 #welcomehome (#adoptdontshop)

This little assortment of #veggies with such a pretty presentation was particularly fitting for #Thanksgiving day in #Kyoto, and a #delish nod to the #Fall bounty. Wishing everyone a #happythanksgiving wherever you are! :) 🍁 #bountiful

When in #Kyoto ... A different kind of #Thanksgivingday this year, but equally delicious and enchanting to all senses. These pickled daikons with sesame seeds were among today's happy finds in #ninenzaka. :) 👌💗 #oichi

Watermelon #breakfast #salad : watermelon, some good crunchy granola with pumpkin seeds, a little feta, thinly sliced jalapeño (of course :)) and some green sauce that ties it all together. A little #chill out in #austintx (!) but could still eat this all day... Nice #foodinspo @paperboyaustin ! 👌🍉#austin #chillin

Normally it would be time for braised red cabbage and apples... But it is still so balmy that a #marketfresh apple and red cabbage #salad it is :) : with red apples and a beautiful red beefheart cabbage from a past #farmersmarket run, walnuts, Thompson raisins; and a lemon and caraway seeds dressing for a little zing and earthiness at the same time. Refreshing dinner ahead and leftovers for #meatlessmonday lunch tomorrow. Gorgeous red colors both days :) 🍎 💜#oneappleaday

It´s starting to feel like #Fall today... Time for #apple everything... 🍂🍎 #bigapple #appleseason

Rising and shining with the last #farmersmarket plums of the season and a #breakfast plum, apple and almond torte. A #cake that kinda came together in the kitchen and luckily worked out. :) ☕️💜#breakfastinbed

Found Italian plums! There were some left and plenty of peppery greens at the #farmersmarket yesterday, and so, ending this glorious #Fall day / Oct 1st with this glorious plum, lime and peanut #salad. An inspired #inspo from @guardian #food with all the good stuff: plums and greens, crispy fried shallots, garlic and ginger, fragrant fresh herbs, and some super tasty lime sauce. And peanuts as the name of the salad says :). It happens to be #vegan so if you are, or are #vegetarian, fried or marinated and baked tofu might work well with this. If you aren’t, think grilled or broiled ..., perhaps, and also marinade or some Asian style rub. Or to eat on its own, it’s quite moreish! 💚💜🥗 #saladdays #delish

Always love to see a #local business and #coffeeshop make good #coffee AND good sense :) ☕️💚 #goodcoffee #goodsense @irvingfarm #nationalcoffeeday

This week's fave #farmersmarket snack: Italian plums, sweet with a little tartness and a firm texture, and with such beautiful colors. Good to enjoy the last few days of #summer with, though just came across an interesting recipe using them and now hoping they can be found a little longer! Hopefully more on this soon :) 💜 #lastsummerdays

A little ray of sunshine spotted at the #farmersmarket a few days ago. Thoughts go out to all the folks who have experienced and are recovering from so much in past few weeks, from the #carribean #islands, #florida, #texas, #oregon , #mexico, #southasia and more. 🌼
