In case you haven’t noticed, I have been on a writing sabbatical for the past few months due to a crazy busy season at work. I couldn’t be happier to be back than with a challenge! Motivated by creativity and deadlines, I bring you this fantastic risotto as part of the Very Vegetarian Recipe Challenge given by Plated and Oxo!
Red, White, and Blueberry Bread
In honor of the 4th of July, I have another healthy recipe for you. I really love quick breads, and this one is amazing! It is full of berries, coconut, and….you’d never guess…zucchini! Did I mention that it is vegan and gluten-free? This is practically the perfect recipe!
Ok, I’ll admit it. My bread isn’t as white as it could be, but I experimented with coconut sugar and loved how it turned out. If you want a more true white color to the bread, feel free to use white sugar. If you don’t need to worry about gluten, feel free to use all purpose flour, too.
Sunrise Juice
I promise! I am not becoming a juice blog! You just have to remember I didn’t eat anything for two weeks, so juice recipes were all I had to hold onto!
This juice is delicious! I cannot even rave enough. This lovely orange jewel is refreshing, and a natural energy boost for the morning.
This juice is also great for those who are new to juicing. There is nothing yucky or weird about this juice, like some raw juice recipes. It is, however, full of natural sugar so if you’re watching your sugar intake throw in 3 cups of spinach. Spinach is great to juice because you get lots of vitamins, but the taste isn’t overpowering.
