Ginger tea is also called “ginger water” because it’s essentially just a ginger-infused water. You simmer fresh ginger and water together, then strain out the large ginger pieces. This cup of tea is quite spicy, and will warm you up from the inside out. It’s perfect during cold & flu season, or anytime you need a cozy drink. If you’ve ever made cinnamon tea or elderberry tea, you’ll love this one, too!...
In lieu of oil or butter, they get their moist texture from pureed beets!

Initially, I wanted to make a cinnamon chocolate swirl for the banana bread.

I know it could be WAY worse. But I’m still cold! And juicing doesn’t help matters… I don’t know about you all, but when I’m cold, a warm bowl of breakfast cereal— like my childhood favorite, Cream of Wheat— sounds so comforting.

Growing up we called them by their brand names, like Otter Pops or Fla-Vor-Ice, but the general concept of these ice pops were the same– a sweet and fruity popsicle with a slushy texture. Their ingredients were also similar, with the first two typically being water and high fructose corn syrup, along with some fruit juice, artificial flavors, and dyes. One thing that I particularly remember about these popsicles is that they always made my mouth itch....

Honey Roasted Carrots I like to serve carrots alongside many dinners, but I must say that these honey roasted ones are by far much better than plain Jane carrots.

You can find it in 16-ounce packages and it’s usually soaking in a little water. However, the drawback to using this type of tofu is that the center is dense. Super firm tofu has been pressed in the tofu molds for the longest time. As a result, the tofu curds are densely packed....
