To-date, this is my most recreated recipe from you guys. And, I don’t blame you. I personally like putting them at the bottom of a cup and pouring cold almond milk over them, letting the cookies soak for a minute, and then eating them like cereal. So good. So so good.
Read MoreFirst off, I do not understand why pumpkin is a seasonal flavor. I could eat pumpkin pie all year long, and feel blessed that my birthday is in November and that I can celebrate with pumpkin desserts pretty much everywhere that time of year.
Read MoreI am a sucker for a good donut and really anything with peanut butter on it. But, when it comes to raised versus cake donuts, i will choose the cake donut every time. I love me a moist cake donut with toppings galore – and these Banana Peanut Butter Donuts with a Peanut Butter Glaze and Bacon Brittle were an (easy) labor of love that filled that craving perfectly.
Read MoreStuffed dates are all the rave. However, most of the recipes floating around Instagram and Pinterest involve nut butter or chocolate, or both. This one though – she’s the unicorn of stuffed dates. The best part: you just need 5 ingredients.
Read MoreI took my take on my girl @feastingonfruit’s vegan paleo cookie dough recipe and used it as the base for these 3 Layer Cookie Dough Caramel Chocolate Bars. The gooey caramel center is made simply from dates and sea salt. That’s it. I have always been a fan of using dates when making sweet treats because they add in some fiber and a natural sweetness with a lower glycemic index than sugar. The best part of all: no baking is required.
Read MoreIf you are looking for a new way to enjoy cauliflower - this side dish could easily take center stage for any meal and takes just 4 ingredients to whip up.
Read MoreFor this grain-free take on a Lebanese tabouli salad I replaced the traditional bulgar with cauliflower rice, creating a light, veggie-packed salad that IMO goes best with a healthy dose of hummus.
Read MoreThe Olive Garden all-you-can-eat soup, salad and breadstick combo was a staple in my college diet and fortunately always fit in my college budget. I was a huge fan of the chicken tortellini soup, and recently decided to healthify it using bone broth for an extra protein kick and Greek yogurt for the creamy touch.
Read MoreWhen it is Sunday game day and you make ya man these wings – you’ll be in a league of your own and have him thinking, “Damn, I outkicked my coverage.” In all seriousness, this spread was so freakin good and the Seven Sons Farm chicken wings were the MVP. I marinated the chicken wings in a chimichurri sauce (recipe below) for about an hour and then cooked in my air fryer. I served with a green goddess dip (recipe below too), carrots, bell peppers and cauliflower crackers.
Read MoreWhether you are looking to jazz up your snack game or are looking for an easy, crowd pleasing appetizer to wow your friends and fam with, these BLT egg stacks will do just that. If you are planning to serve these as an appetizer I would recommend investing in stainless steel cocktail picks. They add a touch of sophistication to the presentation, for sure.
Read MoreMy low-fat banana bread recipe is one of my favorite recipes I have ever created. I love that so many of you made it after I shared it the first time, and wanted to give it a fall-inspired twist. Cue this low-fat spice cinnamon apple bread.
It’s moist, low in sugar and did I mention - low in fat? I figured there are enough “fat bomb” recipes out there and post workout - you don’t want a meal high in fat, so this bread is actually a great post workout option paired with a protein shake.
I by no means advocate for a low fat diet, but the truth is – after a workout, it is best to prioritize protein and carbohydrates. Post workout, fats slow down digestion and absorption of nutrients, and to repair and regrow those muscle proteins you just broke down in your workout and to speed recovery so you are not sore for days on end, it is important to eat a meal based primarily in protein and carbohydrates. With that said, do I have the perfect banana bread recipe for you! Did I mention it is low in sugar too? I like to have a slice of this in a yogurt bowl with a little more powdered peanut butter for a post-workout meal that feels like a real treat.
