Mediterranean Pasta Salad
This is one of my favourite salads to make when hosting a barbecue. It's loaded with flavour and can be made the day before.
Strawberry Kiwi Smoothie
My taste testers loved this delicious antioxidant-packed smoothie! One serving contains more than twice the recommended daily intake of vitamin C!
Roasted Ratatouille
This roasted vegetable dish is delicious and makes plenty of leftovers for quick weekday lunches and dinners. At only 107 calories per serving, it delivers plenty of fibre and antioxidants. From Bonnie Stern's More Heartsmart Cooking.
Red Lentil Soup
Don't be fooled by their red hue - when cooked, red lentils turn pale yellow. And unlike many other pulses, red lentils are very quick to cook.
Lemon, Blueberry and Millet Muffins
When added to baked goods, like these muffins, millet provides a crunchy texture and nutty taste.
Chipotle Chili
Chipotle chili powder gives chili a rich, smoky flavour. Save some of this chili for leftovers - it's even tastier the next day.
Spicy Sweet Potato Wedges
This is one of those easy-to-make recipes the whole family will love. And they're loaded with beta-carotene, an antioxidant thought to guard against cardiovascular disease.
Coconut Almond Macaroons
I love coconut, so macaroons are a favourite of mine. This recipe yields unbelievably light macaroons that literally melt in your mouth.
Leslie's Overnight Bircher Muesli
This satisfying breakfast is an excellent source of gut-friendly prebiotic fibre and probiotics. Halve the recipe if you want only enough for three breakfasts.
Hearty Minestrone Soup
A meal in a bowl! The combination of wild rice, kidney beans, chickpeas and vegetables results in a delicious low-calorie soup that's packed with nutrition. This soup freezes well.
