?A round-up of some of our favourite recipes and food-related features this week including recipes for Autumn Apple White Wine Sangria and Roasted Chicken with Chorizo and Root Veggies, and an interview with Sara Forte of Sprouted Kitchen.
?The Sprouted Kitchen?: veggie enthusiast Sara Forte shares seasonally-inspired?recipes
Almond Meal Cookies with Coconut and Cacao Nibs from ?The Sprouted Kitchen? (? 2012 Sara Forte and Hugh Forte. Published by Ten Speed Press.)
Sara Forte grew up eating her fair share of frozen taquitos in a family that loved to sit down for meals together but didn?t necessarily love to cook. Her appreciation for cooking and nutrition came later and she has since made it a career ? first with her blog Sprouted Kitchen, and now with a cookbook, ?The Sprouted Kitchen: A Tastier Take on Whole Foods? (Ten Speed Press, 2012). We talk to Sara about the book and share two recipes: Almond Meal Cookies with Coconut and Cacao Nibs, and Ranchero Breakfast Tostadas.
