For this week's video I want to share with you all the amazing, fresh dessert recipe for my "Citrus Olive Oil Upside Down Cake". I was inspired by Mediterranean and South Asian cuisines, so I used olive oil instead of butter and added pistachio nuts and cardamom for flavor, texture, and scent. But the real star of the show here is the mandarin oranges, the richest fruit of the season.

This dessert tastes decadent, but this dessert is low calorie and low fat. A slice is just under 200 calories.

*Note: Use a sharp knife and take your time when slicing the mandarin oranges, the thinner the better. This cake also pairs well with
almonds or walnuts in place of the pistachio nuts.

This easy and tasty dessert will be a great addition to your holiday table and can be found in my “Holiday Recipe Guide,” together with other healthy recipes, like Rustic Apple Tart, Orange Spiced Chicken, Honey Roasted Pears with Walnuts, Pomegranate & Phyllo and more.

Working as a kidney doctor, I found that my patients were often unaware of just how important diet and lifestyle were and how often they felt unsupported by generic advice to “eat healthy”.

The home cook in me hated hearing this, so I set out to find a better way. I began to combine my medical training and love of food, making videos of simple recipes that were based on science and packed with flavor. Instead of just saying “eat healthy” to my patients, I could give them the resources they needed to make a real difference in their health.
