Energy Tartlets

One of my favorite desserts – a beautiful, fresh fruit energy tart – will cost you about 10 minutes start-to-finish. In fact, by using simply healthy substitutions and time-saving tricks, these tarts emanate big flavor, well-rounded nutrition, and are healthy enough to be consumed at any time of the day. We healthy dessert people are pretty sneaky, no?

“Life Is Good” Salad

Upon nightfall, we’d make grand simple meals of the freshest of fresh vegetables. Here’s what went into our summertime garden salad bowl, which we consumed just about every night. Delicious. When I wasn’t eating it, I was thinking about eating it. Brought to you by nature and what’s perfectly in season . . .

Savory Portobello Burger

Lately I’ve been absolutely hooked on a new recipe: a Portobello Burger Patty which is so fantastically savory, juicy, and full of plant-based protein, I’ve clearly developed a new healthy habit.

The Acai-tini

One of my favorite clean cocktails is The Acai Tini, because the mix actually includes a superstar superfood: Acai. A small purple berry that with a mild blackberry flavor, Acai is touted as a highly condensed source of antioxidants. So yes, a martini with benefits!

Love Berries

No recipe says LOVE quite like an offering of juicy strawberries dunked in lusciously rich homemade raw chocolate.
