Simple Roasted Carrot Soup with Coconut Milk
Let’s talk soup details, shall we? This soup combines the magic of carrots and coconut milk to create an unbelievably creamy (yet cream-less) soup that’s equal parts bright and sweet. Despite its incredibly simple ingredient list, the soup’s flavor is deceptively complex, and the hint of apple gives each bite the perfect amount of freshness.…

These balls! Seriously, I can’t get enough. They are sweet, tart, chewy, nutty and chocolatey. In short, each perfect bite is packed with texture and feels somewhat indulgent. But what I love the most about these is the fact that they’re very nutritious. They pack more fiber than you know what to do with, plus…

How about this for a simple, yet zesty weeknight meal? To say I eat a lot of zucchini noodles would be putting it very, very lightly.

SOUP. I love soup. And I must add that this one is absolutely fabulous. First of all it’s comforting without being heavy and it’s a breeze to pull together. I’m talking 25 minutes tops with about 5 minutes hands on time. Throw some freshly sliced basil on top, serve with some crusty bread and a…

I went to town on this banana split by adding fresh strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries, as well as ground flax seed, toasted…

Read MoreLoaded Sweet Potatoes
Easy & satisfying. The filling in these bad boys is simple: chickpeas, tomatoes, feta, parsley and a healthy dose of lemon juice. I dig this veggie filling in everything from salads and burrito bowls to lettuce wraps, but stuffed in a roasted sweet potato, is where it really shines. Scary good (for vegetarians & meat lovers alike). The…
Read MoreMoroccan Chickpea Carrot Salad with Pistachios
There are a few reasons I love adore this carrot salad. First, it’s absolutely delicious. The tart lime dressing, spiced by cumin & turmeric, takes a plain carrot salad and turns it into a dish worth getting excited about. The dates are sweet, the pistachios are salty. The whole package is an amazing combination. Forget…
