ROASTED SPAGHETTI SQUASH
SERVES 4 to 6 I call bull on anyone who says, “Spaghetti squash tastes just like spaghetti.” It does not. But it is delicious and nutritious, has the right shape, and can be twirled on a fork, so I accepted this vegetable substitute for pasta with an open heart. I...
CAULIFLOWER RICE PILAF
SERVES 6 I was the official rice maker in my family, and I perfected a water-measuring technique that involved placing my thumb against the bottom of the pan, just like my Sitti (“grandmother” in Arabic) taught my mom. I took great pride in my fluffy rice, and it was...
VELVETY BUTTERNUT SQUASH
SERVES 4 to 6 The word “casserole” is so unassuming and suggestive of “stuff from cans,” it hardly seems appropriate for this dish. It’s almost a confection, made of pillows, clouds, and whispers. It starts as a puree that, while not bad on its own, is still just...
GREEK BROCCOLI
SERVES 2 to 4 Banish boring broccoli! In the time it takes to microwave a bag of frozen stuff, you can whip up this fresh side dish that brings the sun-dappled shores of the Aegean right into your kitchen. The tender broccoli and tangy-sweet tomatoes relax in a sauce...
CUMIN-ROASTED CARROTS
SERVES 2 to 4 “The Incident” in my elementary school cafeteria left me cooked-carrot averse. (Think mean lunch lady, waterlogged carrots from a can, tepid milk, and force feeding.) But my mom introduced me to the sweet goodness of roasted carrots and saved the day....
MASHED CAULIFLOWER
SERVES 2 to 4 I grew up in diner country, where creamy mashed potatoes were a standard side dish that almost defined a balanced dinner. (Hello, meat and potatoes!) This cauliflower proves that starch is not a requirement for comfort. Snuggled under a hearty beef stew...
CREAMY SPICE MARKET KALE
SERVES 2 to 4 Leafy greens like kale, chard, beet tops, and collards are the definition of “good for us,” but I’ve never been a fan of the standard “throw in a pot with bacon, stew for hours, and hope for the best” approach. There is surely an elderly (but still...
BLUE RIBBON COUNTRY CAPTAIN CHICKEN
SERVES 6 to 8 In 1971, wearing a groovy vest-and-pants outfit she sewed herself, my mom won first prize in the Pottsville Republican’s annual Share-Your-Recipe contest. In the photo of the award ceremony at the swanky Necho Allen Hotel, she is clearly the...
MEAT AND SPINACH MUFFINS
MAKES 12 muffins These muffins are a savory surprise. First, they come in a brightly colored wrapper, just like cupcakes, only better. They also have a pleasantly dense texture that packs both meat and veggies into a fun, portable shape. Great hot or cold, you can...
SALMON A L’AFRIQUE DU NORD
SERVES 6 to 8 Summers in Austin, Texas, are hot, humid, and, oh, so long. One afternoon, deep in the triple-digit days, a frosty package arrived on my front porch: a box of 18-inch-long salmon fillets direct from my friend Cheryl in the forty-ninth state. She’s...

I started using VIXIV in December 2020, I lost a lot of weight over 22 kg in a period of about 5 months, feel great and in addition I must update you that the blood tests did not look like that since 2012.
Raanan Kosovitch
My doctor was shocked by my blood test, I told her I was using the vixiv pill and she said that for about 20 years I had not had such good test results!
I feel great.
