Be prepared for some cute doggie pictures!!!
But first, just a little re-cap of the weekends events
Thanks for all your entries into the giveaway! I’m lovin’ those barstools. I think my favorites are the backless ones. It looks like the Blender Express Plus is pulling in for the lead with the immersion blender coming in a fairly close second. You have until Thursday, March 11th @ 8pm PST to enter! [More Yum →]

I know we’ve all seen maca circulating in the blog world lately and I wanted to delve a little deeper into the research behind it and check it out for myself.
According to the Natural Medicines Comprehensive Database maca is a plant that grows in central Peru in the high plateaus of the Andes mountains. It has been cultivated as a vegetable crop in Peru for at least 3000 years. Maca is a relative of the radish and its root is used to make medicine. [More Yum →]

I’m excited to announce another giveaway on eatingRD! I was contacted by CSN stores and asked if I would like to review a product or do a giveaway. I wanted to spread the love with a little giveaway and took it a step further by also letting you choose! Yay!
Perusing their ginormous site, which features thousands of cooking gadgets from over 200 stores, and even some pretty neat barstools, I was in sheer delight trying to make my decision. It was tough, but I decided on 5 items that I think you guys will enjoy! They even have several VitaMix babies, but that was a little high on the budget

I found some pre-cooked black beluga lentils at TJ’s and love their nutritional punch! Chrysta had posted a killer looking lentil and beet salad a little while ago, and ever since then I’ve been thinking I need to make some lentils!
Lentils are great for a filling, fiber-rich protein source. These ones were great because they were already cooked too! I had a local kabocha squash on hand from the farmer’s market, so I wanted to incorporate them somehow. When I saw that I still had some of TJ’s Harvest blend and some quinoa in the pantry I knew just the thing to do . . . stuff it! oh yeah [More Yum →]
