Recipe: Sweet Potato & White Bean Veggie Burgers

In my household, Sunday evening’s are made for cooking. I – almost obsessively – read food blogs and curate my personal e-mail inbox around recipes. This includes recipes I plan to try and recipes that I’ve tried and vetted. Naturally, categories are involved by recipe type. It’s a bit OCD….and I love it.

One of my recent finds comes from a Vegan blog that I enjoy – Kathy’s Healthy Happy Life. While I’m not a vegan, I believe in the health benefits in balancing my meals with vegetables. Sometimes, I also go for a completely vegetarian or vegan option – like these Sweet Potato and White Bean Veggie Burgers.

Recipe: Pumpkin Chai Spice Oatmeal Blueberry Muffins

When a very busy week is looming, I often make healthy grab-and-go breakfast muffins. Simply pop a week’s worth in the refrigerator and the rest in the freezer (or share with friends, colleagues!) and workweek meal-planning just got easier.

And arguably more delicious – especially when Pumpkin Chai Spice Oatmeal Blueberry Muffins are involved. I kid you not. When this recipe popped into my inbox from Kathy’s Healthy Happy Life I swooned. So many ingredients I love all in one muffin. Must…bake….now!

Recipe: BBQ Black Bean, Mango, Green Bean & Quinoa ‏

This week, I went “rogue” and decided to invent my own quinoa recipe. Packed full of some of my favorites – black beans, mango, green beans, bbq, feta and quinoa – this recipe is great when cooking for a group, or portioning into individual tupperware containers for workweek lunches.

I know what you’re thinking – BBQ sauce and feta? Sounds weird, but trust me…it works.

Recipe: Hearty Kale, Sweet Potato, Avocado and Grilled Chicken Salad

When I was a child, my mother could not get me to eat anything besides hot dogs and mac ‘n’ cheese. As an adult, my culinary preferences could not be more opposite. I crave healthier, whole foods and love tucking into a massive, satisfying salad. Inspired by the left overs in my fridge, here is a quick and easy salad that I whipped up recently over the weekend featuring kale, sweet potato, avocado and grilled chicken.

Recipe: Walnut and Rosemary Oven Fried Chicken

I’ve always enjoyed healthy versions of breaded chicken. There’s something about the slight crunch and texture that just works for me. While I’ve mastered breadcrumbs or panko toppings, the thought of adding in walnuts and rosemary had not occurred to me until I saw this recipe from Cooking Light.
