  • 4 tbsp Maple Syrup
  • 1 tbsp Water
  • 3/4 tsp Peppermint Extract

Chocolate Coating:

  • 1 cup Dark Chocolate Chips
  • 2 tsp Coconut Oil
  • 3/4 tsp Peppermint Extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350° F. Cover a sheet tray with a silpat or parchment paper and set aside.
  2. In a medium-sized mixing bowl, add the almond flour, cocoa powder, Xanthan Gum and salt. Whisk to combine.
  3. Slice the butter into small cubes and add to the dry ingredients. Using a fork or pastry cutter, cut the butter into very small pieces into the almond flour mixture (smaller than pea size!). Then add the maple syrup, water and peppermint extract and stir together with a spatula.
  4. Form the dough into a disc, wrap in plastic wrap and place into the refrigerator for 15 minutes. This helps to make rolling the cookies out much easier!
  5. After 15 minutes, remove the dough from the refrigerator and place onto your work surface. Place a piece of parchment paper or plastic wrap over the dough, then roll it out, this makes rolling much easier! Roll the dough out to about 1/8″ thick.
  6. Next, use a 2″ circle cutter, cut out the cookies and place onto your prepared sheet tray.
  7. Bake for 12-17 minutes. (Be sure to check the cookies at 12 minutes, you want them to be crispy but don’t allow them to burn!) Allow cookie wafers to cool completely.
  8. While the cookie wafers cool, make the chocolate coating. To a microwave safe bowl add the dark chocolate chips and coconut oil.
  9. Microwave on 25 second intervals, stirring in between each, until the chocolate is just melted. Then add in the peppermint extract and stir to combine.
  10. Take a chocolate wafer, dip into the melted chocolate coating, turning the wafer to coat the entire cookie. Let any excess chocolate drip off into the bowl and place the cookie onto your prepared sheet tray with a silpat or parchment paper.
  11. Continue with remaining wafers, coating each in chocolate.
  12. Place the coated cookies into the freezer for 10 minutes or refrigerator for at least 15 minutes to allow the chocolate to set.
  13. Store the cookies in an airtight container in the freezer or refrigerator, however you like your thin mints! Enjoy!

  5. Next, remove the blade from the food processor, scrape down the batter and add the chocolate chips, stirring with a spatula.
  6. Then, pour the batter into your prepared pan and set aside while you make the peanut butter swirl.
  7. To a medium size bowl, add the PBFit and 5 tablespoons of milk. Whisk together. The consistency should be a little thinner than regular peanut butter. If it is too thick, add another tablespoon of milk.
  8. To make the swirl, drop dollops of the PBFit mixture onto the brownie batter, spreading them evenly over top of the batter. Then, using a butter knife, start from one corner and drag the knife through the batter and PB from one end of the pan to the other. Continue going back and forth until you reach the other side of the pan. Then, rotate the pan 90 degrees to create swirls in the other direction. Again, start from one corner and go up and back, snaking your way across the batter. Continue until you get the look that you like.
  9. Place the brownies into the oven and bake for 20 minutes until they are set.
  10. Allow brownies to cool for 15 minutes before digging in. Enjoy!

Description

One of my most popular recipes! Quinoa Greek Salad is a great side dish, lunch and excellent to bring to potlucks!


Ingredients

Scale
Salad Ingredients
  • 1 1/2 cups Quinoa
  • 3 cups Water
  • 1 pt Cherry Tomatoes
  • 1 Cucumber
  • 1/2 cup Kalamata Olives
  • 1/2 cup Feta Cheese
Balsamic Dressing Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup Olive Oil
  • 2 tsp Dijon Mustard
  • 1/4 cup Balsamic Vinegar
  • 1/2 tsp Kosher Salt
  • 1/4 tsp Ground Black Pepper

Instructions

For the quinoa and veggies
  1. Rinse the 1 1/2 cups quinoa in a fine mesh strainer. In a medium saucepan, heat 3 cups of water over high heat. Add the rinsed quinoa. Bring quinoa and water to a boil then reduce heat to low and simmer for 15 minutes. The quinoa is done cooking when all the water is absorbed and it is light and fluffy.
  2. Prep and slice veggies.
  3. Peel cucumber and slice off the ends. Cut the cucumber in half lengthwise. Using a small spoon scoop out the seeds. Next, slice each half lengthwise into 1/2 inch long sections. Then stack your long sections together to dice into 1/2 inch dice. Place diced cucumber into a large bowl.
  4. Rinse your cherry tomatoes. Slice each tomato lengthwise (its prettier!). Place into bowl with cucumber.
  5. Slice kalamata olives in half. Place into bowl with cucumber and tomato.
 
For the balsamic dressing
  1. Into a small mixing bowl or mason jar add all dressing ingredients. Whisk until the dressing is fully emulsified. Taste the dressing and adjust seasonings per your preference
Putting the salad together
  1. Once the quinoa has finished cooking add 3/4 of the dressing to the hot quinoa and stir to mix well. This will allow the quinoa to really absorb the dressing.
    Place the quinoa into the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
  2. Once the quinoa has cooled, place it into a large bowl. Add the cucumber, cherry tomatoes and kalamata olives. Next add the feta and mix together, taking care not to smash your tomatoes. Add the remaining 1/4 of the dressing and mix together. Place the salad back into the refrigerator for 1 more hour. Serve chilled, enjoy!

Description

Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Balsamic Glaze are crispy, caramelized, and coated in a sweet-tangy drizzle that makes veggies feel exciting again. They’re the perfect simple side that adds color, flavor, and a little nourishment to any holiday table.


Ingredients

Scale
Roasted Brussels
  • 1 1/2 lbs Brussels Sprouts
  • 1 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 1 tsp Kosher Salt

  4. After the 20 minutes turn the heat off and allow the glaze to cool slightly. It will thicken and become glaze like as it cools.

Better than Girl Scout Samoa cookies with just 4-ingredients! Plus, no added preservatives or artificial nonsense here!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups Unsweetened, Shredded Coconut
  • 2 cups Pitted Dates
  • 1/2 cup Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
  • 1 tsp Coconut Oil

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400° F for toasting the coconut.
  2. In the bowl of a food processor add the dates and pulse for 10-20 seconds to break down the dates.
  3. Pour coconut onto a sheet tray with a silpat or parchment paper and place in the oven to toast for 3-5 minutes. (Take care to watch it as it will burn easily!) Remove from oven and allow to cool for 2 minutes.
  4. Add the toasted coconut to the dates in the food processor and pulse for 10-15 seconds. You will know the mixture is ready when it can be pinched together and stays together.
  5. Scoop out tablespoon size portions of the mixture and form into a round cookie shape, pressing it into shape with your fingers. Place onto your sheet tray with the silpat or parchment from toasting the coconut. Continue to form cookies with the remaining mixture.*To make authentic Girl Scout Samosas, take a toothpick or small spatula handle and make a hole in the center of each cookie. You may need to press and shape the cookies to retain their shape.
  6. Place the sheet tray into the freezer and freeze for 5 minutes to set the cookies shape.
  7. Meanwhile, place the chocolate chips and coconut oil into a microwave safe bowl. Microwave on 25 second intervals until the chocolate is fully melted, stirring in between each interval.
  8. Next, remove the cookies from the freezer. Dip the bottom of each cookie into the melted chocolate to coat the bottom and return to your silpat or parchment covered sheet tray. Repeat for all cookies. Then, using a spoon, drizzle the remaining chocolate over the cookies in a stripe pattern for the full Samoa look.
  9. Place the cookies back into the freezer for at least 10 minutes so that the chocolate will set. Remove from the freezer and carefully peel the cookies off your silpat or parchment. Enjoy!

Notes

Keep the Samoas in an air tight container in the refrigerator.

Description

Refreshing, delicious and naturally sweet. Raspberry Mango Sorbet is the perfect summer treat!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 16 oz Frozen Mango
  • 16 oz Frozen Raspberries
  • 2 tbsp Fresh Lime Juice (Juice from 1 whole lime)
  • 3 tbsp Honey
  • 5 tbsp Warm Water

Instructions

  1. In the bowl of a food processor add the frozen fruit, lime juice, honey and 2 tablespoons warm water.
  2. Process for 1-2 minutes then stop and scrape down the bowl. At this point you will likely need to add a few more tablespoons of warm water to help break up the frozen fruit.
  3. Process again for another 1-2 minutes until the fruit mixture becomes smooth.
    Tip: A little patience is key with this recipe! Sometimes it is helpful to let the mixture thaw for a minute or two and then process again to get the smooth consistency of a sorbet.
  4. After the mixture becomes smooth and cohesive, put the sorbet into a freezer container and place into the freezer for at least 30 minutes (if you can wait that long!)

  • Author: Amy RD, LDN
  • Total Time: 10 minutes
  • Yield: 6 Servings

Description

This homemade salsa comes together in no time and has a fresh flavor, better than jarred salsa!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 28 oz Canned Whole Tomatoes (no salt added)
  • 2 Cloves Garlic
  • 1/2 Red Onion
  • 1 Jalapeno (seeded)
  • 1 Lime, Juiced
  • 1/2 tsp Kosher Salt
  • 1/4 tsp Cumin, ground
  • 1/4 tsp Black Pepper, ground
  • 1/4 cup Fresh Parsley

Instructions

  1. In the bowl of a food processor or blender, add the canned tomatoes and pulse 5-7 times to break up the tomatoes.
  2. Next, add the remaining ingredients and pulse/blend until the salsa reaches your desired consistency.
  3. For chunkier salsa, blend just a few seconds. For smoother salsa pulse 10-12 times.
  4. Serve with your favorite whole grain tortilla chips, sliced avocado and enjoy!
 

Notes

*The salsa is excellent right away or you can pop it into the fridge for at least and hour to allow the flavors to blend.
*For a spicier version, add 2 jalapenos.
*Salsa will last in the refrigerator for 5-7 days in a sealed container.

Simple sauteed Bok Choy is a fast and flavorful side dish for any dinner!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lbs Bok Choy (One Large Bunch or Two Medium Bunches)
  • 1 tsp Sesame Oil
  • 1 Garlic Clove, minced
  • 2 tbsp Soy Sauce

Instructions

  1. Trim the root end off of your bok choy and discard. Then fan the leaves open, rinse off any dirt and shake off excess water.
  2. Place the rinsed bok choy onto a cutting board. Line the bok choy up horizontally and with a sharp knife, starting with the white part and moving to the leafy green, chop into roughly 1-inch pieces.
  3. Heat a medium sized skillet, wok or cast iron pan over medium-high heat. Add the sesame oil and allow to heat up for 30 seconds.
  4. When the oil is heated, add the white parts of the bok choy only! (This is key so that the greens do not wilt while the white part cooks!) Allow to cook for 1 minute.
  5. Next, add the rest of the boy choy, (the greens!) and cook for another 2 minutes. Then turn the heat down to medium low and add the garlic and soy sauce. Cook for an additional minute until the garlic just softens. Serve immediately.

Description

This vibrant salad brings together sweet, savory, tart, and crunchy flavors in every bite—perfect as a nutritious side dish!


Ingredients

Units Scale

Salad:

  • 1 Sweet Potato
  • 4 cups Baby Spinach
  • 1/4 cup Pecans, Chopped
  • 1/4 cup Pomegranate Arils
  • 1/8 cup Parmesan Shavings
  • 1 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 1/4 tsp Kosher Salt
  • 1/4 tsp Ground Black Pepper
Dressing:
  • 1/4 cup Balsamic Vinegar
  • 1/4 cup Olive Oil
  • 1/2 tsp Dijon Mustard
  • 1 tbsp Honey
  • 1/2 tsp Kosher Salt
  • 1/4 tsp Ground Black Pepper

Instructions

  1. Start by roasting your sweet potato. Preheat oven to 400° F, get a large sheet tray out and set aside. Peel and dice the sweet potato into 1-inch dice.
  2. Place the diced sweet potato onto your sheet tray and top with 1 tbsp olive oil, kosher salt and pepper. Place into the oven and roast for 25-30 minutes until just starting to brown and crisp, stirring halfway. Allow the sweet potato to cool for at least 10 minutes before adding to the salad. (If it is hot it will wilt the spinach!)
  3. While the sweet potato roasts, prepare the rest of the salad. Place the baby spinach into a large bowl. Add the pomegranate arils and pecans and using two spoons, toss together.
  4. Next, mix up the dressing. Add all the ingredients into a mason jar, pop a lid on and give it a shake. Or, add the ingredients to a small bowl and whisk together. Set aside.
  5. After the sweet potato has cooled, add to the salad mixture.
  6. Next, pour over 3/4 of the dressing and toss the salad together. Taste for seasoning and add more dressing if you’d like.
  7. Lastly, using a peeler, shave thin pieces of Parmesan cheese to top the salad. Enjoy!

Description

Maple & Olive Oil Granola is an antioxidant fueled breakfast that goes great over Greek Yogurt or eaten plain as a snack.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup Olive Oil
  • 1/2 cup Maple Syrup
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 3 3/4 cups Old Fashioned Oats (Use 3 3/4 cups for more granola clusters, use 4 cups for “crumbly” granola)
  • 1/4 cup Flaxseed
  • 1 tsp Ground Cinnamon
  • 1/8 tsp Cardamom (Optional)
  • 1 1/2 cups Raw Nuts (I used Pecans and Sliced Almonds)
  • 1/4 tsp Kosher Salt
  • 1/4 cup Dried Cranberries (Or your favorite dried fruit)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 325° F.
  2. To a large mixing bowl add the oats, nuts, cinnamon, cardamom (if using), and salt. Stir together with a spatula and set aside.
  3. In a liquid measuring cup add the olive oil and maple syrup. Mix together and then add the vanilla extract.
  4. Pour the liquid mixture over the oats mixture and stir together thoroughly with a spatula.
  5. Spread the granola mixture evenly onto a large sheet tray and bake for 25 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes.
  6. After 25 minutes remove the granola from the oven and add the dried cranberries. Mix together and then allow the granola to cool before serving.
  7. Tip: If you want your granola to have large clusters (which I do!) after you add the dried cranberries, press the granola down with the back of a spatula, then allow to cool fully.
  8. Serve over Greek Yogurt or enjoy plain as a snack!
