    Simple, Sweet and Crispy Roasted Brussels Sprouts

    Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Maple Syrup, Oil and Salt This simple side dish is one of the easiest and most delicious ways to make Brussels sprouts (IMO!) and takes about 20 minutes to make from start to finish. Brussels sprouts are full of fiber, as well as vitamin K, vitamin C and many other micronutrients . They're also so tasty when roasted and crispy! Plus, adding a touch of maple syrup provides a sweet taste, as well as carbohydrates, which is helpful for athletes look

    Creamy Roasted Cauliflower Soup - Hold the Cream!

    Creamy Roasted Cauliflower Soup (Without the Cream) This soup is my favorite winter soup because it's so cozy and creamy, but it doesn't have the same heavy feeling of many creamy soups. The roasted cauliflower contributes a rich flavor, while also offering vitamin C, vitamin K and fiber, to name a few nutrients. I like to make a large batch on the weekend so that I can enjoy this soup throughout the week with lunch and dinner. What is your favorite soup when it's chilly outs

    Potato and Broccoli Cheddar Mash

    Easy Mashed Potatoes with Broccoli and Cheddar I recently found myself with a ton of extra potatoes, so I immediately decided that I would make mashed potatoes. While I love the original, plain version, I also had some veggies that I knew I had to use up before they went bad. Before I knew it, I had this little number and it was so good that it may just need to be on repeat. These mashed potatoes are so creamy tasting and are a great way to get picky eaters to try incorporati

    Maple Roasted Carrots with Rosemary

    A Delicious Holiday Side Dish For Many Dietary Needs After this recipe, I promise to take a break from the maple syrup - it is just so good and the perfect addition to any fall dish! My Thanksgiving Day table is definitely going include a few maple recipes! These carrots are simple to make and truly taste decadent. When roasted, carrots naturally taste sweet and the maple syrup amplifies this sweetness. A hint of rosemary balances out the flavor while keeping this dish suitab

    Roasted Maple Rosemary Veggies

    Roasted Butternut Squash, Sweet Potato and Parsnip with a Maple Rosemary Glaze I am on a bit of a maple syrup kick lately. Something about the sweetness and the fall-flavor make it the perfect complement to vegetables around this time of year. Many times, when I roast sweet potato or butternut squash, I simply add cinnamon and call it a day, since these veggies already have their own sweet taste. However, for Thanksgiving this year, I wanted to create an extra special flavor

    Crispy Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Pomegranate Arils and Walnuts

    This is probably my favorite dish when the temperature starts to drop and we begin to enjoy the produce that thrives in the cooler weather. Brussels sprouts are a part of the cruciferous veggie group (like cauliflower, broccoli and cabbage) and offer a hearty texture and flavor that I love to balance with the sweetness of pomegranate arils. Also, the walnuts add some crunch and nuttiness to round out this dish. I've been making this side dish for years and it makes frequent a

    "Creamed Spinach" - Hold The Cream!

    My take on creamed spinach swaps out heavy cream for Greek/Skyr-style yogurt and milk, in order to increase the protein content and make this seasonal favorite tolerated well by those who don't tolerate large amounts of fat in one sitting. Spinach is filled with folate, vitamin K and vitamin C and the yogurt and milk in this dish adds protein and calcium, as well! This dish is not lactose free, but with a few simple swaps it can easily be low-lactose and likely suitable for m

    Mediterranean Inspired Salad

    This simple, #nocook recipe is refreshing and nutritious! It also works well for those following various dietary restrictions, such as dairy free, low FODMAP, vegan and gluten free. This chickpea based salad is drizzled lightly with a homemade, simple dressing and works well as a side dish or a snack, pairing carbohydrates, protein, heart-healthy fats and, of course, plenty of colorful veggies! Ingredients (yields 4 servings): 1 medium cucumber 2 medium tomatoes (I used heirl

    Summer Pasta Salad

    This Summer Pasta Salad is the perfect complement to a summer cookout, or is a great meal on its own! Zucchini, bell pepper and tomato bring out the sweetest flavors of summer, and the easy, homemade dressing is light and refreshing. Although this works well with any pasta, I prefer to use a whole wheat pasta or a legume-based pasta for added protein and fiber. With added veggies and a sprinkle of feta cheese, this pasta salad will become a seasonal favorite! Ingredients (ser

    5 Things To Do With Avocado That Aren't Avocado Toast

    There's no denying that #avocadotoast is probably the best thing invented since sliced bread (ha!), but did you know that avocados can be used in so many other, versatile ways? From smoothies to baking substitutes to dressings and sauces and everything in between, this fruit is one of my favorites because there is no shortage of ways to use it! I know you're curious about how to use this fruit in ways other than mashing on toast (not that avocado toast will ever get boring, b

    Baked Sweet Potato "Fries"

    These baked sweet potato "fries" are crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and my favorite way to eat sweet potatoes! Sweet potatoes are a starchy vegetable, so they offer carbohydrates complete with fiber, and they're also a good source of beta carotene (which our bodies convert to vitamin A) and potassium. Also, this dish is suitable for those following a #lowFODMAP diet, so your tummy and your tastebuds will be happy! And did I mention they're sprinkled with cinnamon

    Blender Cauliflower "Mash"

    I'm really not a fan of using my oven in the summer, so I love developing simple, #nobake recipes. That's not saying that I never use my oven in the summer, but if I can avoid it, I'm pretty happy (and cool)! This simple, made-in-a-blender side dish will keep your kitchen cool and your family happy - and it's a fun recipe to get kids involved with creating so that you can show them how fun and easy eating vegetables can be. They won't even realize they're eating cauliflower!

    Summer Entertaining Recipe: Avocado-Mozzarella-Tomato Boats

    When I'm entertaining in the summer, I like to keep things simple and cool (i.e. I try to avoid turning on the oven for fear that my guests will melt before we sit down to eat). These simple avocado boats stuffed with mozzarella and tomato fit the bill, can be served as an appetizer or a side dish and can be made in about 5 minutes. Serve with a dinner made on the grill to keep guests (and you) out of the kitchen and enjoying the sunshine! Ingredients (serves 4): 2 avocados
