I get so much pleasure out of teaching yoga and making connections with so many different people. One thing I have discovered, unexpectedly to tell you the truth, is that it is such a joy to teach yoga to families. Seeing parents engage with their kids on the mat…being silly together and being focused, making animal noises and playing games and then lying still at the end of the class.

Family Yoga Night has become something I so look forward to and thoroughly enjoy. After the class, we usually have a potluck (it’s a yoga thing!). This month, I made these yummy white bean enchiladas. I’ve made black bean/sweet potato enchiladas with red sauce for years. So I thought how about white beans with green sauce and it works perfectly. I adapted a recipe for the sauce from a cookbook I picked up while traveling in New Mexico last summer. It’s a winner.

Creamy Dreamy Broccoli Soup

Standard

It got down into the 50s this week in Houston…brrrrrrrrr. This is when we all get our puffy coats out, if we even own a coat.  So it was the perfect time to make a batch of soup to have around.  I love just about any kind of vegetable-based soup. And ever since I got my Vitamix, I like any excuse to put stuff into it.

This recipe could easily be creamy dreamy asparagus soup or pea soup or spinach soup or whatever-you-want-to-put-in-it soup. The formula is simple: steamed vegetables + cashews + vegetable broth + almond milk.

Start by steaming the broccoli and then the potatoes:
