  • Pumpkin-palooza

    How much pumpkin is too much pumpkin? The limit does not exist – which is why I’ve been gobbling up pumpkin morning, noon and night, with no end in sight. Usually pumpkin is relegated to sweet dishes like pies, puddings and pastries. But I’ve been determined to explore all the facets of pumpkin, including a slew of healthy breakfast options like pumpkin chia pudding and slow cooker overnight oats, along with the savory side with dishes like pumpkin quinoa chili and pumpkin alfredo. Read on for my all-time favorite, healthified pumpkin dishes!

  • Healthyish Carrot Cake Cream Cheese

    October in sight means everything orange black and white – including this carrot cake cashew cream cheese for a little Halloween tease. Halloween is one of my favorite holidays for the ridiculous amounts of candy, even more ridiculous costumes and scary movie marathons galore. And one thing that’s particularly scary – how a little hocus pocus can turn cashews into a creamy base that’s oh so much better for you than the tubs in the store. It’s also a sly way to sneak in some carrots and can be slathered on your morning bagel or used as a healthy-ish frosting for Halloween treats. Read on to get the dEATs for how magically easy it is to create this crafty concoction.

    I’m gaga for gourds, so it’s another delicata-licous day in the neighborhood. This week’s meal prep is a DELICATA KALE SALAD with TRI-COLOR QUINOA, ROASTED CHICKPEAS, POMEGRANATE SEEDS and GOAT CHEESE. I’m a huge fan of cook once, eat twice, so this week’s blog is a double header! Not only does delicata delight this salad, but it also makes for an easy Whole30-approved breakfast as DELICATA EGG SLIDERS. Find the dEATs on both, below!
