These blueberry muffins always hit the spot. While fresh blueberries are fab for these, they can be made with frozen ones, so you can have the perfect baked good for any time of year.

A cabbage salad, folded in toasted coconut with a smooth and creamy Minty Tahini Dressing from Sarah Britton's Naturally Nourished
Introduction

My friend Henriette is one of the most talented (and humble!) cooks that I know. We worked together at an organic vegetarian restaurant for years, and I learned so much from her, including how to think outside of the box and try new combinations of foods, even if they seemed unusual. One day she was making a cabbage salad and folded in toasted coconut. I looked over at what she was doing and raised an eyebrow… you can’t mess with coleslaw! But it worked. Ever since then, I love tossing a little coconut into my cabbage salads. It adds sweet, nutty notes, and its richness is the perfect balance for the lightness of the cabbage. My version includes quinoa for a meal-like salad, but this is optional. The smooth and creamy Minty Tahini Dressing is ridiculously yummy on much more than this salad alone, so pour it onto everything you make— especially if it seems weird!
