I wanted to share a recipe with you that you can make on the grill since you may be out there this weekend for your 4th of July BBQ! I love this recipe and make it all the time for my family, so I thought I'd pass it along to you to use, too! Let me know what you think!

Your friend and trainer,

From O, The Oprah Magazine

Spice up your Indian dinner with this tasty appetizer or use in salad as I will do today.
By Colin Cowie

Masala:

Directions

Happy Herbivore on Emeril: The Recipes
Written by Lindsay Nixon

Remember when I said I was on Emeril's show?! Well it aired last night. (Did you see me in his kitchen??). I promised I'd veganize all his recipes when the show aired and I have (mostly!).



On the show (Episode 6: Emeril's Heartland), Emeril made Lemony Spiked Sweet Tea, Ham Steaks with Red Eye Gravy, Sweet Potato Biscuits & Molasses-Pecan Butter, EJ's Simple Oven-Baked Ribs and Bourbon BBQ Sauce, Vegetable Pot Pie, Roasted Red Pepper Mac and Cheese and Deep-Dish Banana Pudding with Chocolate Sauce.



Luckily, Emeril & I seem to be on the same wave length because I had healthy & vegan versions of all his dishes already -- except for the biscuits which I was really excited to try my hand at.



For the ribs, use this vegan recipe with a tangy bourbon-based BBQ sauce (that's accidentally vegan). Then run a few roasted red peppers through your food processor or blender and add them to the cheese sauce in my easy mac n'cheese recipe. Substitute my whole wheat veggie biscuit pot pie for Emeril's pot pie and round the meal out with my instant banana-flavored ice cream and fat-free chocolate syrup. If your heart is set on a pudding, though, there are plenty of banana soy puddings on the market or you can make my ice cream with very ripe bananas (not frozen) and serve it in a bowl with crushed whole wheat gram crackers (but I do have a graham cracker crust recipe, too!).







Now for the biscuits! Mmm... sweet potatoes. check back tomorrow for the recipe

Hey, I LOVE to mix protein powder in with my oatmeal, but I think I heard somewhere that heating protein powder does something to it (denatures it or something?) Does anyone know if this is true?

Hi! This looks interesting. What is "clean" food?
