I’ve tried varying quantities of ingredients, using limes vs. lemons, playing with different spices and textures, and I’m happy to report I’ve perfected my perfect go-to guacamole!

❤️ You’ll Love This Nacho Cheese Sauce Quick to make: You’ll need just 10 minutes to make this super delicious cheese dipping sauce. 5 minutes of prep time + 5 minutes of cook time. Incredibly cheesy. Super creamy and rich. Hot, melty with drizzle consistency. Cheese dip made with real ingredients: That’s right, no processed or artificial cheese (like Velveeta), no emulsifier, and no food color are used. If you buy a store-bought jar of nacho cheese or you had it at a movie theatre or ball game then you know those are not made with real cheese as real cheese dip has a very short shelf-life....

They’re also naturally-sweetened, grain-free (if you’re into that kind of thing), rich in healthy fats, and flavored with health-promoting spices like ginger and cinnamon! Let’s (not) bake! The base for these bites is medjool dates, walnuts, and fresh grated carrot. Then I added ginger, cinnamon, and nutmeg for that quintessential carrot cake flavor. To help the mixture form and add more natural sweetness, I opted for coconut flour (almond flour will also work here)....

As the winter season starts, we use/combine the spinach or palak in many different recipes whether it is dal palak, aloo palak, chole palak, palak soup. Spinach is healthy green leafy vegetable that should be included in our diet. Apart from making healthy recipes using spinach, I make this palak pakoda sometimes. During the cold wintery days, this is the best snack with cup of tea on weekend afternoons. This can be enjoyed on rainy days as well....

Bonus? It’s vegan, gluten-free, and you’ll need just 10 ingredients. Let’s bake, friends! This cake begins with the upside down plums! We arrange sliced plums (apricots work, too!) in a circular pattern at the bottom of a pie pan. Generously greasing the pan with vegan butter helps prevent the plums from sticking and cane sugar creates a caramelized sauciness. Next, we make the cake batter. Cane sugar, vegan butter, almond milk, and applesauce are the wet ingredients, with optional almond extract giving it a pronounced almond flavor!...

I know, I know…just another food blogger claiming their recipe is “the best”. But, I’m not calling it the best in vain. The recipe below will be a hit, I can almost promise you that.

This 9-ingredient recipe starts with aquafaba! Yes, aquafaba knows no bounds. It acts as a binding and leavening agent in these cookies, which is kind of amazing. If you haven’t jumped on the aquafaba bandwagon yet (which is just the liquid from a can of chickpeas), you totally should! Don’t dump that liquid gold out next time you’re making hummus! It keeps in the fridge up to a week and makes so many delicious things (like oil-free granola!...

This recipe starts in the food processor and finishes in a mixing bowl so you don’t lose the texture of the oats or the baking chips. Altogether it’s about a 30 minute recipe that makes very little mess (a.k.a. my kind of recipe). These guys get their peanut butter kick from two sources: Peanut butter that’s added into the batter2) Peanut butter chips that are baked right alongside the chocolate chips The double PB combo makes my heart swoon, and the chocolate chips make the perfect flavor complement....

So my simple solution to off-setting the carbs is to sub in vegetables for two-thirds of the noodles. This not only makes the dish lighter in general, but also provides another two to three servings of vegetables which pretty much benefits everyone whether they like it or not (i.e. husbands). I’ve used carrots for 100 percent of the noodles in a pasta dish before but it ultimately left me feeling unsatisfied....

Admittedly, this drink isn’t for everyone. It requires a handful of adaptogens, which can be a bit of an investment. However, I figured I’d go ahead and share as I’ve been drinking and enjoying it daily.

Good question, and something I wondered about myself up until a few years ago....

I do. They’re our next door neighbors and I’m so thankful for them. We actually met last year when they popped over around Christmas time to deliver some cookies. Nice, right? Why didn’t I think of that (especially considering I’m a baker – yikes)? Since then we’ve invaded each others’ apartments at least once a week to exchange food and hugs and stories about the chaos of our days. I guess you could say we’re officially besties....

While pears are delicious all on their own, they’re even better browned in a little butter and brown sugar. This makes them tender and gives them a nice sweet, caramelized flavor. Then come the oats! So simple and hearty and delicious and absolutely perfect for cold temps. Personally, few things sound more satisfying to me than a warm bowl of steel cut oats on chilly fall or winter morning. Topped with a layer of brown sugar pears and pecans?...
