Desserts!
When you’re craving something sweet, sometimes nothing but the traditional sweets will do. But often, it’s possible to satisfy a craving for something a little sweet with a dish that also adds real nutrition to your day. These recipes will please your sugar-loving side while giving you important nutrients to get you through the day. Many of these recipes call for date paste: if you’ve never made it before, check out our instructions.
Oodles of Voodles
We’ve been having fun with spiralized vegetables this month! (Voodles are veggie noodles, for those of you who missed earlier posts.) Did you catch our Halloween fun with Roasted Butternut Noodles? There’s good times to be had putting any number of veggies under that spiralizing blade, and good flavor too. Many of these dishes are great sides: pair with some plant-based protein and a smart portion of whole grain to round out the meal!
Easy Meals for Many Hands
Many hands make light work–and in the kitchen, that can be a blessing. Whether you’re cooking a fresh meal on a slower night or stocking the freezer with easy meals to reheat throughout the busy week, working together as a family can be a fun exercise in teamwork, nutrition and teachable moments. We’ve put together a few colorful recipes we think you’ll find rewarding to make with your loved ones.
A Zippy Start to School-Year Dinners
Cooking with a large number of spices can seem intimidating, but when you split the work up between a few people, this meal is a snap. Put someone in charge of chopping veggies, someone in charge of measuring spices, and someone in charge of watching the stove, and quick as a wink, you’ll have this hearty meal on the table.
Variety is the Spice of Lunch
When packing a lunch ends up meaning that you eat the same sandwich day after day, the little oasis of time away from your work or school in the middle of a busy stretch can become a bit bleak. These recipes are easy to reheat or pack and offer a great range of different flavors to keep your tongue from getting bored.
Grilling On the Go
Many of our favorite summertime hangout spots come equipped with those little charcoal grills or firepits. Or maybe your favorite place to cook a meal is over your gas grill on the patio or up to camp. No matter where your wild cookout spot is, good nutrition and easy food prep can seem tough to come by, so we’ve put together some recipes and tips to make life easier.
Fresh Fish!
Fish is generally at its freshest during the summer season. We’ve put together a roundup of our favorite fish recipes, many of which are easy to convert for outside grilling.
