Fall is definitely in the air this weekend in Portland.  I love the cool, crisp air and the occasional rain.  It is a welcome change from the heat of summer.   For many, the change of seasons brings some regrets with the perceived loss of the abundance of fresh produce.  However, in the Willamette Valley, we […]

Focus on Oats

February 10, 2019 by Teri Sprouse

June 25, 2017 by Teri Sprouse

In my family, summertime was watermelon time.  Almost every night after dinner, my mom would shoo us outside with a bowl of giant watermelon slices to munch on.  Now, with the incredible heat hitting Portland this weekend and seeing watermelon starting to line the shelves of my grocery store, I feel a longing for those […]

Loving on Lentils

June 17, 2017 by Teri Sprouse

Lentils are an incredible, cheap, tasty source of vegan protein.  Lentils  like other types of beans are a member of the legume family. They grow in pods that contain either one or two lentil seeds, are high in nutritional value and are available throughout the year.  Unlike other types of beans, they are quick cooking, […]
