Novel Eats

Blood orange olive oil wound up being a fantastic addition to these collard greens and spinach. Learn how to make this quick and easy recipe.

This past weekend Matt, a couple of friends and I went and saw Food, Inc., a film hoping to expose the inner workings and flaws of the food industry. It featured advocates like Michael Pollan, author of The Omnivore’s Dilemma, Eric Schlosser, author of Fast Food Nation, and Joel Salatin, a farmer who runs Polyface Farms in Virginia.

A couple of years ago I was really craving cinnamon rolls – the warm, gooey and total comfort-food kind – and so when I came across a vegan recipe that had rave reviews, I thought that I had a winner on my hands.

I am so excited to finally share with you the new and improved look for NovelEats.com. This redesign has been a process that has been nearly a year in the making. It started out as a project that I thought would take only days or weeks, but as I soon discovered, things don’t always work that way.

Luckily for me, I married a technically savvy and resourceful guru who was finally able to figure out a few days ago how to get the content (blog posts and comments) over from my old blog platform, Drupal, to my current blog platform, Wordpress. The design had essentially already been done for a few months, so the last few days have been spent tweaking a few things here and there. There will likely be more tweaks in the near future as I discover things that need to be fixed or updated, but overall this is it!
