Hi friends! We weren’t able to get a fresh episode together for you this week so we’re rerunning a show we love from back in January 2017. The carrot ginger dressing we talk about is one that we both still love, and the nut bread Joy shared is a great one for these cold winter days (because we all need a little extra warmth these days!).
We’ll be back next week with a new show! Stay well!

Marisa walks us through her master recipe for granola, which is: 3 cups rolled oats, 1 1/2 cups seeds and nuts. ½ cup sweetener (honey, maple, brown rice syrup, etc) and ¼ cup oil. Pinch of salt and some spices if you’d like. Mix and bake on a parchment lined baking sheet a 300°F/149°C for 25-35 minutes, stirring every ten or so.
Many people are taking a cue from Marie Kondo and tossing belongings that fail to spark joy. We try that out on our recipes and cookbooks.
