Recipe: Ensalada de palmitos y palta (hearts of palm and avocado salad)
I make variations of this salad every time I cook a Peruvian-themed meal. What makes it Peruvian? The avocado, palmitos, botija olives and the fact that is seasoned with lime juice and olive oil. Serve as a side for pretty much anything. Ensalada de palmitos y palta (hearts of palm and avocado salad) Yield: 4-6…Continue reading Recipe: Ensalada de palmitos y palta (hearts of palm and avocado salad)
Naturally Good Expo
Last weekend I attended the Naturally Good Expo, a trade-only event for businesses interested in natural food, therapies and goods.

I also had more time…Continue reading Product review: Global Organics tomato passata
Product review: Paleo Hero products
Since I cleaned up my diet to base it on real nutrient-dense food my snacking has gone down to almost zero. The only occasions I munch on something that is not a main meal is when I’m extremely stressed, or drunk, or travelling, or not hungry enough for a full-sized meal.
