Recipes for February
It’s been a minute since I posted some of my favorite healthy meals. The first two, in particular, were perfect for the lunar new year, which perhaps was a subconscious inspiration, or can be a wonderful meal for your partner, your kids, or a dear friend. I made all these dishes for my family, since my husband is not a meat eater. I was inspired to get back to my protein and vegetable days of eating. That’s where I feel the best, but that doesn’t mean it’s for everyone. Some people thrive as a vegetarian or vegan, so it’s good to know what kind of foods nourish you the most. Nonetheless, if you like protein and vegetables, these recipes are keepers! These 3 recipes verge towards paleo, meaning there is no dairy or gluten. I have made these recipes twice, so I will put in my two cents and suggestions.
Holiday “Healthier” Dessert for Passover and Easter
It seems a contradiction to have a blog about health and movement, and then slip some dessert recipes in there. But we all need a vice, and mine is baking, and it’s only kind to share this type of vice with you! Plus the holiday dessert editions were very popular, so you demand and I supply. At least these desserts have modified sugar or use healthier fats and no gluten. I have two recipes for Passover and two for Easter, although with a little bit of paleo flour magic, all these recipes work for Passover as well! And even though our Seders are finished, we still have a good amount of time in Passover to still make treats.
Your “Healthier” Thanksgiving Desserts
I am here to give you some ideas for gluten free, dairy free “healthier” but delicious desserts that I have tested in my kitchen and were crowd pleasers in my circles. And you won’t even miss the dairy or the gluten! They do take alternative ingredients so if you are so inspired, you have a good week to find them.
Paleo vs Keto
This weekend I baked a paleo key lime pie and I have also made keto macadamia bread. You have probably heard these words, paleo and keto, around people’s choice of diets/lifestyle, so let’s dive into what they mean, and the similarities and differences between both ways of eating.
