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!

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…

Golden Milk Latte

Food fads usually make me cringe - but for such a popular drink they score far higher for health than any frap-a-latte-chino. Peek inside for the recipe.

Raw Cacao and Date Bites

Why grab an energy bar when you can make something equally delicious? (i.e. the adult version of candy). It's not only healthier because you can pronounce all of the ingredients but its packed with functional ingredients that help you look, think and feel amazing.
