Brownies are the bomb, but they do tend to be an empty-calorie sort of bomb. Sometimes, that’s perfectly fine, but wouldn’t it be nice to make them more often without sacrificing all of your dietary principles? While not low-calorie, my wholesome brownies are almost entirely made from whole foods, which means the calories aren’t empty at all, but rife with nutrients and fiber. In fact, the only added fat or sugar in the recipe is the modest handful of chocolate chips.
I’ve tried many a recipe for keto and low-carb waffles off the internet and they’ve been…well…okay, I guess. After several of these lackluster experiences, I set out to make my own low-carb waffles. The result are these beauties…
Thick and puffy pancakes that pair perfectly with maple syrup or lemon curd. I love how the sliced almonds toast up in the pan as you flip them…
A simple, tasty, and attractive side dish. These garlic-chili oil Brussels sprouts are nutritious, delicious, and very quick to make!
Most of the time, one of my major goals when making granola is to get some nice chunky clusters going on. This granola transcends that concern entirely. It has more a muesli look; chock full of nuts and seeds with a nice crunch to it, and the way the brown sugar dissolves into milk makes one want to savor every bowl.
Toasted pumpkin seeds are a tasty and healthy snack. Great to mix things up and satisfy that need for savory crunching. Not only that, but putting the seeds to use when cooking with squash reduces food waste!
I am always on the lookout for interesting dishes and flavors to play with, and when I came across a recipe for beans in the style of mapo tofu, I was intrigued. The finished product has a spicy, complex, savory flavor and a satisfying texture boost from the large white beans used in place of silken tofu.
Hailing from Vietnamese cuisine, salad rolls can include a variety of fillings and make for a delicious and healthy appetizer or light meal. This recipe is more a of a guide–the exact amounts aren’t important, and you can try different filling combinations of your own. I’ve included the core ingredients and a suggested set of additional flavors to get you started, along with a recipe for peanut dipping sauce. If I’m being honest, I love peanut sauce so much that the rolls themselves are more of a vehicle…
Sometimes there’s just nothing like chicken soup, especially when it’s chilly outside or you’re coming down with a cold. Warm, mellow broth and classic ingredients combine for a dose of liquid comfort. This recipe’s got everything but the chicken and is a breeze to make!
Avocado toast basically it does what it says on the tin, and memes aside, it’s great. Satisfying and nutritious any time of day, whether as a snack or a meal. You can cook the eggs any way you want to.
