This recipe is such a delicacy, and it is really simple too! We were at William Sonoma the other day, and it they had so many samples! One happened to be chocolate peppermint bark! We were so inspired by the […]
I was in the mood for something sweet and salty for dinner. I love butternut squash and coconut milk and caramelized onion so I combined these for a really yummy pasta sauce that had just the right amount of sweet and savory and a tiny bit of spiciness from a dash […]
This is a really delicious, extra rich and creamy hot chocolate with a very special fall ingredient- pumpkin!! I love all things pumpkin and one day I was just experimenting with my hot chocolate and added in pumpkin and some spices. It turned out to be the best hot chocolate I’ve ever […]

Hi Everyone, I am Emily and Lyla’s mom, otherwise known as Cricket. I am “guest” posting today to share my recipe for beet ravioli. The ravioli is actually thinly sliced beets rather than pasta. If you are a beet lover, like we are, you will love this. This recipe was […]
My creamy salsa recipe is quick, simple, really tasty and healthy. Tomatillos are kind of like tomatoes and have a little shell on them like a husk cherry does. They are really delicious in salsa. In normal salsa I can never scoop it up, so to my tomatillo salsa I added […]

Hi, we were so thankful Jen Cohan invited us as press to the Philadelphia Vendy Awards. It was a delicious experience with warm peach cobblers to insane quinoa tacos (our favorite). Owning a food truck must be hard so we have to hand it to all of the people that […]
We had such a great time interviewing Nancy Easton, the founder of Wellness in the Schools. We hope you enjoy watching. The interview is just below. One thing we learned and you will learn too in the interview is she told us about that if you make a mistake, and do not fix […]
Here are our 8 Great Reasons to eat kale! 1) Tastes good (we especially like our chips) 2) Keeps you strong and fit because kale has a ton of iron. 3) Makes your hair healthy and shiny and strong because it a has tons of vitamin A and C. Very good in summer especially if […]
Do you play any sports? This is something our mom has made for us on game days and it’s really delicious and she makes sure we drink it so we are hydrated. The chia gets a little gel-like which is what makes it extra good for staying hydrated because the seed actually […]
Chef Telepan invited us to go to the Wellness in The Schools Gala. If you saw our Kitchen Curiosities interview with Chef Telepan he talked about Wellness In The Schools where he is the executive Chef. WITS just celebrated their 10 year anniversary and it’s a really big deal because […]
Gazpacho is like a liquid salad and is technically made with tomatoes. We don’t use tomatoes for this Gazpacho, but it is like a liquid salad and easier to eat than regular salad! Our Suja Gazpacho is easy to make, and in the end is so refreshing. Emily and I love all […]
We first met Chef Maria Loi at the C-CAP event in New York and she was so nice and we loved her salmon dish she served that night so we could not wait to get to visit her at her restaurant Loi Estiatorio on West 58th Street in New York and interview […]
It’s just early morning in this video here and I am making our Kitchen Twins Toasted Coconut Kale Chips. I first coated the kale with the olive oil in the bag (#ShakeYourKale!!) and now I am sprinkling on the toasted coconut. And voila in 8- 10 minutes fresh kale chips we […]

This is a really delicious and different kind of salsa that we love with homemade cinnamon chips. We first tried fruit salsa when our friend Bella brought it to our Yoga Veggie Potluck party. Everyone loved it. So we were inspired by her recipe and made our fruit salsa with different fruits […]
I bet that right now you are asking yourself “what is nutritional yeast?” Well you know how caviar is very, lets say first class, in taste and in $. Nutritional yeast is my caviar. Except for the money part, and that I don’t like caviar. So how do I […]
Emily and I love whipped cream, SUJA and coconut so we wanted to put them together. This whipped cream is dairy free and also vegan and gluten free. It will take a little thinking if you want to make this because you really want to chill the can of coconut milk for many hours […]
