Now that school is back in full swing and my calendar begins to fill up, I like to make a heartier breakfast before we head off to work, school and volleyball. With only a leftover sweet potato, some homemade almond milk and cabinet full of various grains, we created our Amaranth Sweet Potato Breakfast Mush….

Cauliflower Cakes
If cauliflower isn’t on the top of your favorite veggies list, perhaps our Cauliflower Cakes served with our Pumpkin Seed Pesto will help change your mind. Not only is cauliflower part of the power-house cruciferous family of broccoli, kale, cabbage, bok choy, and Brussels sprouts, but also contains sulforaphane? Sulforaphane is a sulphur compound that has been found…
Blissful Bites
Now that summer is winding down, you put away the sunscreen and beach towels, vacuum the sand from your car (no judgement needed from the carpool moms), start the daily trek back and forth to school, and fit in a few emails while the kiddos are at practice. I guess you could say…WELCOME to fall! Hurrying to get…
Roasted Summer Vegetable Salad
There is one rule in my kitchen during the summer months, everything must be made in under 30 minutes. I’m not a fan of standing in the kitchen with summer tugging at my heart. Get your kids and hubby involved in meal preparation as it always goes more quickly when all hands are on deck. Today we’re…
Vegan Lentil Burgers
Our Vegan Lentil Burgers are the perfect protein-packed addition to any plant-based lunch or dinner. We love eating them wrapped in lettuce or served with any of the slightly bitter greens. Bitter greens stimulate enzyme production and help boost the digestive process. For those of us suffering from digestive issues – autoimmune or other – bitter…
Peanut Butter Power Bars
I’m always rethinking nutrition when it comes to my little plant-based athlete, Faith. She’s constantly on-the-go, playing volleyball most of the time with nutritional needs that are a little more intense than my own. Like many parents, I’m concerned about providing the right combination of plant-based proteins for her growing needs. The challenge is how to get…
Bold Blackberry Salad
Found in most markets around the U.S., blackberries are one of the most cost effective, antioxidant rich foods available. We love these deep dark berries for their cancer-fighting benefits and taste. Packed with nutrients and slightly sweet, blackberries can be added to smoothies, salads, or in the case of our Bold Blackberry Salad, made into a beautiful dressing….
Vegan Purple Potato Salad
Vegan Purple Potato Salad, a new take on this summer favorite! We’ve replaced the eggs and real mayonnaise with ripe avocado for this vegan version of an old classic. Our Vegan Purple Potato Salad is creamy, delicious and one of the many foods we use to help reduce the blood pressure issues both my husband…
Jade Pearl Ramen Noodle Bowls
During these hot summer months, noodle bowls have become a staple in the Kelly house. I love making stovetop dinners when the temperature rises in August…no need to heat up the house for this quick and nutritious dinner that comes together in as little as 15-20 minutes. Keeping it light, our Jade Pearl Ramen Noodle Bowls are made…
Gluten-Free Cinnamon Muffins
Sundays are lazy days around the Kelly household. Any of you with teenagers know exactly what I’m talking about…they don’t typically wake up until late morning or early afternoon. Teens (and parents) need to catch up on sleep and reset their bodies for the intensity of the weekly routine. I love Sunday mornings and usually…
