My mother sent me the recipe cut out of the newspaper and I love it. Just the thing for a cold, dark Autumn night as we all stay in our houses. Many of my patients find that a paleo-style diet (vegetable-rich, virtually grain-free, dairy-free with meat, fish, eggs and good fats) makes them feel SO […]

If you like, add some chopped fresh oregano or flat leaf parsley when the salad has cooled. The tahini sauce is […]
