I’ve been MIA because it’s SUMMER! Are you enjoying the heat? I’ve also been doing some travelling and I can’t wait to tell you more about that!

Now let’s get back on track with welcoming Health & Nutrition Coach, Teresa Ryce to The Tasting Table. We had so much FUN preparing a delicious Kale & Quinoa Salad and a refreshing Green Smoothie. You’ll be a hit if you bring this salad to your next BBQ. Follow Teresa on instagram and subscribe to her newsletter for more recipes and updates. She’s got an exciting program coming in the Fall.
