A guide to help you become healthier and happier
Some days all I want to do is throw a bunch of ingredients in a pot for dinner. Well this recipe is just that. Minimal prep, simple ingredients, quick, and absolutely delicious.
This one-pot lentil bolognese is packed with flavor, from fresh basil to sun-dried tomatoes. Enveloped in a rich, flavorful tomato sauce with lentils and topped with fresh basil and red pepper flakes. If you’re looking for a lazy, simple dinner meal then you’ve found the right recipe.
…When you’re indecisive and want both peanut butter and chocolate in your dessert…you end up with this. Worth every effort.
These blondies are fluffy, chewy, moist…and will melt in your mouth. A peanut butter blondie swirled with a chocolate batter and sprinkled with chocolate chips. Need I say more?
These are secretly healthier than your average blondie. Sweetened with coconut sugar and 100% gluten-free. And of course they are also completely vegan.
I highly recommend to sprinkle with a little flaky sea salt when they come right out of the oven!
…I am usually not a big fan of gluten-free desserts, as they are often dry, crumbly, and lack in rich flavors, however that isn’t the case for these cookies.
Not only are they soft and chewy on the inside, but provide a slight crunchiness on the outer layers. Embedded with gooey chunks of chocolate chips and rich notes of peanut butter. Dunk one (or two, three…) into a glass of non-dairy milk and I think you’ll have your sweet tooth satisifed for the rest of the day.
The blend of oat and almond flour provide a slightly nutty flavor with a soft and chewy texture. Almond always seems to bring out such a great flavor in chocolate chip cookies and I am always a fan of using it in a recipe even if it means using almond extract.
I recommend using creamy peanut butter to achieve a chewy texture, preferably an all-natural one not loaded with added sugars. This recipe works perfectly with either an egg or a flax egg. Whatever of your choosing. …
Yes, you read that right. Pumpkin cinnamon rolls! I could not not do another pumpkin recipe. Let me just say this is one of the best recipes I have ever made, and if you try them out yourselves you will know exactly why!
Fluffy, sticky, and goeey these pumpkin cinnamon rolls are smothered in a thick icing and will leave you wanting to eat the whole batch. Perfect for this season…or any time of year really. They are that worth it.
I did not have the intention to make these “sticky” buns, but as soon as I cut them I realized the gooey caramely goodness that was hidden under these rolls. I could not resist diving into one right away. A beautiful mistake right?
The ingredients are super simple and the process is easier than you think! …
There’s nothing more comfortable than a warm bowl of soup during these cold months. Grab your favorite fresh bread and dig into this creamy lentil soup and I am sure you will forget about those freezing cold temperatures.
This super creamy lentil soup is packed with flavors, aromas, and only takes at most 30-minutes to make. Spiced with whole cumin seeds and coriander…there really is no perfect warming spices for this soup. Topped with crunchy sprouts, red pepper flakes for a bit of spice, white sesame seeds, and a squeeze of lemon juice to brighten it up.
If you don’t have an instant pot I highly recommend you to invest in one. Especially if you are a college student. Not only will it save you from buying a bunch of pots/pans, but it takes significantly less time to cook your meals. If I were to make this lentil soup on a stovetop it would have taken an hour opposed to 15 min. to cook. Crazy right?
Simple saute a few vegetables, and toast the cumin seeds. Pour in the lentils. Add the tomato paste, diced tomatoes, and broth. Put on high pressure and cook for 15 minutes…yes I said only 15 minutes. Viola you have a perfect lentil soup!
…
You’re probably thinking…Did I just say brownies and black beans in the same sentence? Yes I sure did. Believe it not these brownies are incredibly fudgy, chocolatey, and simply melt in your mouth. Black beans add an amazing dense fudginess and trust me…you wont even taste them in the final product.
An incredibly fudgy chocolate filled black bean brownie with a bit of festive touch by adding pumpkin pie spice. Embedded with gooey chunks of chocolate chips as well!
If you haven’t had black bean brownies yet and you are a little hesitant to try them then you’re really missing out!
They are protein-packed and a perfect healthy alternative to any sweet treat.
