Spiced Applesauce
Whether you enjoy this delightful Spiced Applesauce as a delicious snack or a healthy dessert, you will be amazed at how quickly and easily this homemade applesauce recipe comes together. This perfectly spiced applesauce is made with juicy Honey Crisp apples, lemon juice, aromatic cinnamon sticks, star anise, cardamom, and a touch of pure maple syrup. The best part? No peeling required! And, this recipe is 100% plant based and gluten free.
White Bean Roasted Garlic Dip
A delicious alternative to hummus, this quick and easy White Bean Roasted Garlic Dip is healthy & so flavorful. We roasted garlic to mellow out its sharpness, used buttery cannellini beans, fresh herbs, added fresh lemon juice and zest to brighten up the flavor, and a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes to give it a little kick. Served with homemade crostini, our white bean dip can be made ahead of time and makes the perfect appetizer for any gathering.
Dragon Fruit Chia Pudding
Dragon fruit has an insanely beautiful and vibrant color that makes everything you add it to just gorgeous! This Dragon Fruit Chia Pudding is no exception. Our recipe transforms boring chia seed pudding into a tasty and healthy treat that is visually appealing! To give this non-dairy dessert extra flavor, we combined coconut milk, vanilla, pure maple syrup, and cinnamon. If you really want to pimp it up, top it with toasted coconut and even blueberries...so yummy! This chia pudding makes a great snack, or a nutritious meal prep breakfast, too.
