This is one of those perfectly simple, perfectly delicious cookie recipes that come in so handy around the holidays. I made them gluten-free so that everyone in my family could enjoy them (we have some celiacs!), but you could substitute spelt flour or regular white flour for the gluten-free flour instead if you prefer. My kids had a lot of fun squishing and rolling out the dough and choosing their shapes- this will be a go-to recipe all season long! (Next time I may even make some icing to decorate with!)

You know those moments when you just need a little something, but not a full-on dessert? A weeknight, for instance, when you’re curling up after dinner to watch TV. Apple nachos are where it’s at. They’re more fun than just a basic piece of fruit…but they’re not so indulgent that you can’t eat them… every day. In fact, your health would likely improve if you did! We love it.

As someone who easily gets tired of hummus… I’m truly obsessed with this recipe. The flavours are bright and tangy, and it pairs perfectly with veggies or pita. Plus, artichokes and beans are both fantastic sources of FIBRE, which is a key component of keeping our gut microbiome happily in balance. I like to make this for gatherings around the holidays, or any appy night with friends to add a fresh, nourishing option to the spread.

Learn how to make kale taste good. If you don’t like kale, it’s probably because you've never prepared it properly. Try this Festive Kale Salad recipe. The dressing is punchy enough to stand up to the bitterness of the kale, the pecan “parm” is savoury and salty and rich, and the other elements bring a balance of sweetness, crunch and zing. This kale salad also looks so pretty as part of a holiday meal.

These little Tropical Mango Coconut Oatmeal Bites make a great quick breakfast or snack and they’re really simple to whip up. They’re especially great for kids as an alternative to packaged snacks, and they travel well in a diaper bag!

This is my favourite “formula” for a trail mix snack. I like to use a mix of nuts and seeds, dried fruits, something crunch, and chocolate of course. My current plant based trail mix combination is included, but really the sky is the limit in terms of combinations!

My No Bake Seedy Granola is a combination of cereal and rawnola, a raw foodie version of granola using dates and oats. Dates make this no bake granola sweet and chia flax makes it thicken up when you add milk or yogurt. This granola is an incredibly healthy and delicious way to start the day.

These Peanut Butter Chocolate Pecan Bars are delicious and very easy to make. This plant based sweet is like if a Pecan Pie Larabar had a baby with a Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup. They easily save in the freezer, and perfect to bring out after dinner when a sweet craving hits!

This Mediterranean Quinoa Salad is super filling and nutritious. This salad is perfect for lunch, whether you need a lunch on the go or need a fast and easy lunch. Pair this quinoa salad with falafel, roasted veggies, hummus, and pita for a vegetarian Mediterranean bowl.

I love the simplicity of this raw summer cobbler and it’s much more fresh and light, yet still decadent, than baked cobbler. It’s no-bake, no-oven, no-fuss, and only takes 20 minutes to prep. Hope you love this easy summer cobbler as much as I do!

Green juices have been calling my name these days. This Cucumber Kale Green Juice is my current favourite recipe will give you a rush of nutrients. If you are new to green juices, add half and apple to sweeten it up until your tastebuds have adjusted to the flavor. I promise if you do it regularly enough, you'll begin to crave it!
