I first learned of Tsimmes from the Barefoot Contessa herself- Ina Garten. A traditional vegetable stew which is often served on Jewish holidays, Tsimmes traditionally has carrots, sweet potatoes, and butternut squash. I’ve adapted her recipe, adding spicy parsnips and sweet apples to the mix. …
I never ate many pears growing up but after enjoying a beautiful pear from the incomparable Harry and David, I finally understood why they were referred to in Ancient Greece as the food of the gods. Sweet, juicy, and more tender than apples, pears blend perfectly into this sweet and creamy smoothie. This smoothie has all the benefits of a healthy breakfast with all the flavor of a cool, refreshing beverage. Enjoy in the morning to get several servings of fruit before the day even starts or make it whenever you need a mid-afternoon pick-me-up. Bananas add potassium and pears provide a healthy dose of Vitamin C. This smoothie is also incredibly versatile- add a large handful of spinach for an extra serving of green leafy vegetables or add ¼ some oats or flax seeds to give your smoothie a bit more heft.

This smoothie is aptly named as it includes nearly everything but the kitchen sink itself. This smoothie has plenty of green vegetables, several servings of fruit, and several good-for-you seeds and nuts. It’s also incredibly easy to assemble: just chop everything into large pieces and throw it in the blender and you’ll have a frothy, healthy powerhouse of a way to start your morning. I use 1 frozen and 1 regular banana to help chill the smoothie and to make it creamy. Almonds add protein and the chia seeds are packed with essential nutrients, such as omega-3 fatty acids, antioxidants, and fiber. Here’s to good health! Slainte! (Cheers in Irish)
