Creamy Asparagus Soup (vegan)
I recently discovered this creamy asparagus soup and am in love. It not only features one of my favorite spring veggies, but its also great for this time of year because it can be served warm or chilled - perfect for when the weather can’t make up its mind!
Want to have your healthiest thanksgiving ever?
As this week marks the official start to the holidays I want to take a moment to get intentional about the way we are starting this time of year.
I see the same trend every year - many people hitting ‘pause’ on their health with the intention of ‘restarting’ in the New Year. If this is what you were planning on doing, I want to challenge you. Because I know you can do better than that.
Crispy Maple Brussels Sprouts
It took me so long to fall in love with brussels sprouts. The things we pick up as a kid can be pretty funny - I remember my mom joking about how stinky they were and so I remember hating them before I even tried them. When I finally dug in, I was totally surprised and a little upset…
Crustless Pumpkin Minis
For years I had been searching for a good pumpkin pie recipe and would stitch it together at the last moment, which is either a total win or a complete fail.
The recipe I present to you is not exactly “pumpkin pie”, but its damn delicious, tastes like warmed pumpkin pie pudding and actually pretty clean.
Pomegranate Squash Salad
Have you ever opened up a squash without feeling like you’re going to lose a finger? I honestly hadn’t until I googled how for this recipe.
Coconut, Lime, Cilantro Cauliflower Rice
Cauliflower rice isn’t one of those things that you really need a recipe for. It’s pretty simple, really: buy pre-crumbled cauliflower (or rice your own in the food processor, if you’re feeling inspired), saute in oil on the stove top, spice it up, and boom - you’re done.
But if you want to up-level your cauliflower rice skills, try this recipe that I have adapted from Against all Grain.
Vegan Caprese with Sun Dried Tomato Pesto
It’s starting to taste like summer!!
The moment I see tomatoes back in season my heart skips a beat and I begin to scheming how I can infuse them into everything I eat. Naturally, a tomato appetizer is on the menu this week.
Savory Almond Crackers w/ Pumpkin Pesto
This is a great nutrient dense snack option for those of you who are on the go – just a 20 minute investment can save you many moments of hanger (you’re welcome!). Almonds are super high in fiber and fat, stabilizing your blood sugar levels an in turn improve your energy levels while also supporting fat loss.
Coconut Milk Yogurt
One of my biggest nutrition pet peeves is when food masquerades itself as healthy when it's really not. This is usually the case with yogurt - while many of us believe it is healthy for us (all those probiotics!!), they are actually a sugar bomb (with a whopping 20-30 grams of sugar per serving!).
This is why I have fall in love with making my own yogurt ...
