Cauliflower Risotto with Lentils & Mushrooms

This delicious risotto is a snap to make, and will rival anything you'll taste in an Italian trattoria. I made this low-carb cauliflower risotto for my recent cooking workshop in Italy, and it was a huge hit.

Cuban Black Beans, Nightshade-free

I learned to love authentic black bean soup in a Cuban cafe on West 72nd street. The deep, dark flavor was indescribably delicious. They knew how to prepare old-fashioned beans, soft, easy to digest.

Recent discoveries show beans to be a MAJOR factor in longevity, and an important source of protein and vitamins....
