Who says pumpkin is only for the fall? Easy to make, healthy, and scrumptious... you just might find yourself making this pumpkin pudding year-round!

Given the plentiful polyphenols in acai berry, prebiotics in bananas, zinc in cashews and B vitamins in moringa, you might find yourself dipping into this nice cream often. This supercharged sweet treat will give you all the happy feels while nourishing your body with exactly what it needs to function fabulously.

Move over coffee. If you like to enjoy a morning beverage without caffeine, we have the perfect nourishing tonic for you! Moringa powder is packed with vitamins A and C, B vitamins, iron, protein, and omega-3 fatty acids to help you feel invigorated and energized.

Moringa has so much going for it. First, it’s packed with healing ingredients. Second, it works well in so many dishes! Add it to baked goods, soups and stews, cashew-cream-based sauces, smoothies and energy bites. The moringa in this dal isn’t very noticeable other than the pretty green color since the fragrant spices really shine. Still, you’re getting all of the nourishing benefits that moringa has to offer with each bite!

Packed with protein-rich hemp seeds and almonds, this smoothie will support your protein needs while also supporting your immune system (thanks, blueberries!). It’s simple to make, tastes delicious, and is a very pretty blue color (Instagram worthy!).

Looking to supplement your high-fiber diet with a refreshing and nourishing juice? Then look no further than Green Goodness Juice. Made with kale, celery, lemon, ginger, and cilantro (or parsley if you’re a soapy cilantro sort), this juice will make you shine from the inside out with each sip.

Ready to bring a little sunshine to your morning? This creamy, refreshing, and energizing smoothie includes spinach for iron (Popeye’s favorite food), bananas for potassium (good for heavy sweaters), pineapple for phytonutrients (to prevent inflammation), and matcha tea for catechins and theanine (for a boost in energy).

What do you get when you combine beets, carrots, and turmeric? You get an anti-inflammatory explosion of color, flavor, and nutrients. Don’t have a juicer? No problem! Blender instructions for this power-packed juice are provided as well. See Chef’s Notes on how to best absorb the nutrients from this naturally sweet juice.

What comes to mind when you think of smoothies? Most likely it’s fruit with a hint of veggies and more sweet than savory. But salad lovers can enjoy smoothies too! Blend your favorite salad ingredients to create a deliciously creamy smoothie that’s packed with flavors from cucumber, lime, cilantro (optional!), and shallots (yes, shallots!), with a little mango for just a touch of sweetness.

Banana Walnut Bread can easily fit into several categories — breakfast, dessert, or snack. Heat a piece after dinner and enjoy it with banana nice cream for a sweet treat. Warm it in the toaster oven and spread your favorite nut butter on top for breakfast. Or, enjoy it with a cup of tea for an afternoon pick-me-up. No matter how you enjoy this bread, know that you’re getting lots of nutrient-dense ingredients through the bananas, oat flour, and walnuts.
