One item I've added to my every-other-morning ritual is a healthy smoothie, and I mean healthy. I keep the sugar count in check and don’t use any fake fillers, like fruit juice. It’s delicious but I’ve been feeling a little bored of my normal go-to smoothie. I'm in the mood for something easy, fresh, and slightly tropical - this chilly Banana Coconut Milkshake by flavorsofmumbai.com is the perfect combination of fruit, nuts and cream.
We’ve done the chicken wings, the cheese dip, the veggie platter and the sweet & sour meatballs – but we need something else, something different.

The vast array of Fourth of July parties are approaching, which means many people will be planning to start their festivities around lunch or mid-afternoon.

Each year, I look forward to the fresh antioxidant-rich cranberry sauce. It cuts through the weight of the gravy and adds a kick to the smokey ham and buttery biscuits. Cranberry sauce recipes vary greatly from family to family – some are canned, some are fresh, some are peppered, and some are... wined? This Oregon Cranberry Sauce with Pinot Noir is made with red wine, cloves, orange juice, peppercorns, and (of course) honey! Robust, bright, and juicy – this sauce will prove to be everyone’s favorite side dish year after year.
