Aquafaba Mayonnaise

This is the perfect light mayo for all your mayo needs! It’s much healthier than real mayo but doesn’t lack in texture and flavor. The key to making plant-based mayo is the aquafaba liquid. The liquid comes from a can of cooked chickpeas or, alternatively, the leftover water from cooking your own chickpeas. This is a fun recipe to make, fast and easy, and a wonderful alternative to mayo with eggs. No one will know that you didn’t use eggs in this recipe… that is of course unless you tell them!

Roasted Peppers and Marinara Sauce

There are countless delicious ways to stuff bell peppers. Just like magic, halved bell peppers turn into little boats that are perfect for filling with various ingredients to make a simple meal with a (boat)load of flavor. This stuffed peppers recipe is one of my favorites and for good reason! It features a blend of favorite Italian and Mediterranean flavors with its tomatoes, basil, and capers, and is a truly healthy, eye-catching, and delicious side.

Pumpkin Bread

Fall is just a good excuse to eat pumpkin bread. Besides the fact that pumpkin is really good for you, and pumpkin bread is a favorite for Thanksgiving dinner! 

Gravy on Toast

Think: biscuits & gravy. Then, think: gravy on toast? That’s much healthier. I think I’ll go with that instead! Trust me, you won’t miss the biscuit with a good slice of artisan bread and this thick, savory nut gravy. It’s the kind of breakfast that will warm you up on the chilliest of winter mornings.
