RECIPE: Buckwheat Noodle Salad

SERVES: ~ 10-12 PREP TIME: 10 min __________________ This is a great salad to take to a gathering or to keep in the fridge and nibble on all week.  It’s gluten-free and flavor-full. And it may be the easiest thing I’ve made in quite a while.

RANT: Fake Food and Sneaky Ingredients

RECIPE: Tomato and Basil Salad

I used to tear up Caprese salads, any time I was at an Italian restaurant. I would kick off my carb-laden meal with a tower of thick, creamy buffalo mozzarella slices and tomatoes.  Because the Caprese salad was listed under the “salad” section of the menu, I though I was being super healthy to precede my fat-filled fettuccini alfredo dish (which by the way is not on … Continue reading RECIPE: Tomato and Basil Salad
