Lemony Lentil Salad
My Lemony Lentil Salad is both healthy and delicious! Steamed brown lentils are marinated in a fresh lemon and herb dressing, then combined with tomatoes and parsley. The bright dressing penetrates the warm lentils to give you a delicious flavor in every bite. This tasty salad makes a wonderful lunch or side dish. A great make ahead recipe, this lentil salad is best prepared the night before to allow all the flavors to develop. This quick and easy recipe is also plant-based, dairy free, and gluten free!
Easy Berry Baked Oatmeal
Full of healthy and yummy ingredients, this Easy Berry Baked Oatmeal will satisfy the pickiest of eaters. My baked oatmeal recipe has the most wonderful flavor and texture with a creamy oatmeal base that combines with the crunch of roasted almonds, and pop of sweet & tart fresh berries. Drizzle with a little pure maple syrup for an easy and memorable breakfast your family will love. It’s gluten-free and can very easily be made vegan!
Healthier Lemon Mint Aioli
Our Healthier Lemon Mint Aioli has all the flavor but only half the fat of traditional aioli recipes. Made with fresh mint, lemon zest and juice, garlic, Greek yogurt, and yes…mayonnaise, this delicious spread will enhance any sandwich. With its Mediterranean flavor profile, it’s the perfect condiment for our Turkey Feta Burger. And, it’s terrific on beef burgers and grilled chicken sandwiches, too!
