Kale Walnut Basil Pesto
Ready for what might just be the most nutritious pesto on the planet? Well, here it is! The combination of kale, avocado, basil, garlic, and nutritional yeast make this pesto super nourishing, and it’s even more elevated when you add omega-3-rich walnuts to it. Enjoy it in grain bowls, on whole-grain crackers, as a legume pasta sauce, or on top of avocado toast.
Cauliflower Bolognese
Replace the meat with cauliflower for your bolognese sauce and you know what you get? Tons of fiber, lots of vitamin C, heaps of phytonutrients, and plenty of choline — three of which aren’t found in meat! Bottom line is that you can feel pretty darn good about this bolognese.
Beet Burgers
The options for making hearty, dense, and satisfying plant-based burgers are endless, including these Beet Burgers made with beans and beets in between some buns (can you say that three times, fast?). Burgers don’t get much healthier than this — beets for phytonutrients and vitamins, beans for plant-based protein and fiber, and spices that offer tons of nutrition with just a very tiny amount. One way you can make this healthier? Use a crunchy, nutrient-packed collard green as your bun!
Sweet Red Lentil Curry
A little sweetness, a hint of spiciness, and a lot of creaminess will make you come back for seconds of this dish. It’s kind of like the ideal dinner date – when it’s all over you can’t wait to see them again. And, don’t be surprised if you have that post-dinner date glow the next day from all of the healing ingredients like garlic, ginger, sweet potatoes, and lentils!
10-Minute Stir-Fry
Raise your hand if you love simple yet nutritious meals. (Hands raised high here!) When you have little time to spare, grab the leftover whole grains from the fridge and vegetables that you have on hand, and start whipping up this quick and easy (and tasty!) stir fry.
Banh Mi Tacos
Inspired by the traditional Vietnamese sandwich, this take on tacos will leave your taste buds singing, soul shining and belly satisfied with their ingredients that are bursting with flavor and texture. The umami flavor of portobello mushrooms combined with fresh herbs topped with pickled veggies is like a flavor bomb in your mouth!
Tennessee BBQ Bowls
Create a culinary experience from the home of The Grand Ole Opry through this delicious bowl that is big on flavor and not on meat. Kale, red onion, mushrooms, quinoa and sweet potatoes will have you singing songs from Graceland! However, unlike traditional barbecue bowls, this one may support a healthy immune system (mushrooms), offer heart disease protection (red onions), keep skin glowing (kale), and provide cancer prevention (sweet potatoes).
Italian Quinoa Salad
If you’re looking for quick (only 10 minutes!) meal prep and no cooking, then you’ve come to the right place with this nutrient-dense, satisfying salad. Use extra quinoa from your fridge (or other whole-grain of choice) and farmers market veggies to create a delicious and nutritious summertime salad. Don’t forget to notice all of the vibrant plant-based colors that not only make this salad very pretty but also provide you with essential nutrients for healing and energy!
Buffalo Cauliflower Tacos
Who knew that tacos could be so healthy? Truth is that there are countless ways to prepare tacos using plant-based ingredients. With so many filling options, you could create a different taco for every night of the week! This one, in particular, is pretty special with its plant-powered ingredients including cauliflower, avocado, black beans, and whole-grain tortillas. Layer the tacos up with even more goodness, like kimchi, cilantro, and red onion for even more healing nutrition.
