Mascarpone is a soft Italian cream cheese. It is so creamy and smooth that only a small bit of it is needed to add depth and character to an otherwise ordinary recipe. These parfaits are healthy enough to be served with breakfast, or decadent enough for dessert, and they can be made in only a few minutes. Save this recipe for spring and summer, when strawberries are at their peak.
This snack mix is packed with nutrition and healthy fats from the many nuts and seeds. Plus the freeze-dried blueberries add a tangy, fruity flavor to the mix!
The pecans, which are a source of heart-healthy fat, are the star of this salad. You might want to make a double batch because they make a great snack too. If you don’t like goat cheese, you can substitute blue cheese in this recipe.
Don’t be afraid of the black beans in this recipe. You can’t taste them and they give a nutrition kick and fiber boost that you won’t find in regular brownies. Try topping them with fresh raspberries too.
Try this refreshing alternative to sugary drinks! It’s made with fresh watermelon for a lightly sweet flavor with no added sugar, plus zesty lime and cool mint. Perfect for a hot summer day!
This is a wonderful way to use fresh produce from first harvest to last. The contrast of the warm dressing, tender cooked veggies, and crunchy radish and walnuts over the salad greens is a treat for your taste buds. And this salad is full of nutrients for your body!
Edamame seems to be only widely available in frozen form. Stock up, pair it with frozen brown rice, and you can have a really healthy meal in about 10 minutes. Pictured here with crab cakes.
Sometimes I just crave a simple field green salad with the crunch of nuts, tang of dried fruit, and some simple grilled chicken over the top. This is it. Top with Triple Citrus Vinaigrette.
