The Best Cauliflower Pizza Crust (Dairy-Free + Paleo)
Finally! A cauliflower pizza crust that crisps in the oven, slices well, and can carry lots of toppings without any cheese! In my quest to eat less grain, I’ve tried many a recipe online that yielded less than desirable cauliflower crusts. Unlike other crusts you may have tried that are soggy in the center and have to be eaten with a fork, this crust is crispy crunchy, and you can actually ...
Root Vegetable Latkes (Whole30 + Paleo)
Beets, carrots, & sweet potatoes. A match made in heaven. I could seriously eat these latkes for every meal. I’m a big root veggie fan, and I love roasting big sheet pans of veggies in the oven throughout the fall, winter, and spring. Recently I had a leftover beet and some extra carrots in the fridge, and decided to try my favorite flavors in latke form. The hardest part of this ...
Brussels Sprouts with Apples + Bacon (Whole30)
Brussels have come a long way since grandma used to boil them and serve 'em up plain. If you haven't jumped on the brussel bandwagon yet, today is your day, my friend. The addition of bacon, shallots, and apples in this brussel sprout dish makes it more a one-pot meal than a side. This would be a great accompaniment to pork, but I like to eat a big bowl by itself! We'll just be impressed if you ...
Healthy Mashed Sweet Potatoes
A lighter Thanksgiving side with all the candy-sweet flavor of traditional sweet potato casserole! These whipped sweet potatoes are on the table in under 30 minutes, and have no refined sugar, dairy, or butter added! Dicing the sweet potatoes into 1 inch cubes allows for a quick cooking time, and boiling garlic in with the potatoes adds a lot of flavor. I used 2 tablespoons of coconut ...

It is a beautiful bright orange color and is surprisingly filling. I followed this ...
Smoked Pumpkin Mac + “Cheese”
Delicious creamy pumpkin pasta without any cheese AND with added fiber? Believe it! I don't know about you, but this time of year I get really fired up about all of the pumpkin products. And then eventually I get burned out on all the pumpkin-y sweets. This creamy mac and "cheese" is a great savory pumpkin option. An full can of fiber-full pumpkin goes into the sauce. The smoked paprika ...
Kale, Apple, + Roasted Chickpea Salad with Garlic Tahini Dressing
Now that honeycrisp apples are in season, I've found myself eating this salad way too often. Between the crunchy roasted chickpeas and the chopped apples, this salad has great texture. It's very satisfying as a stand-alone meal, but you can always add sliced chicken if you'd like. My inspiration for this dish came from the minimalist baker's garlicky kale salad with crispy chickpeas. Her ...
Roasted Radishes + Carrots
Guys. Did you know that roasted radishes are delicious? Am I the only person who is just discovering this quick and easy side dish? I’ve always loved fresh radishes chopped in my salads, as a carrier for hummus, and atop a baguette with salted butter a la the French. But until recently, I had no idea how the humble radish transforms in the oven. The flavor of the radish changes during ...
