Pumpkin Spice Muffins with Carrots & Blueberries
It's hard to believe these tasty muffins have only 150 calories each! Pure pumpkin purée has about one-third of the calories of pumpkin pie filling, without added sugar and fat.
Roasted Broccoli
If you're looking for ways to get the kids (or adults!) in your family to eat broccoli, look no further! Roasting broccoli gives it a delicious nutty flavour and crispy texture. This recipe is a cinch to make.
Sesame Ginger Salmon
This Asian-inspired salmon recipe is a favourite in my house. It also works well if you bake this salmon in a 400° F (200° C) oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until salmon flakes with a fork.
Cranberry Apple Granola
My clients love this recipe. The ginger gives this granola extra zing. To reduce added sugars, subsitute unsweetened dried cherries for the dried cranberries.
Mango Cashew Salad
This simple, flavourful salad is bursting with antioxidants. Use mangos that are slightly firm so they hold their shape when you mix the salad. You can also serve this salad as a salsa paired with grilled fish or chicken.
Spicy Sesame Swiss Chard
Swiss chard is truly a nutrition powerhouse. It's packed with antioxidants, magnesium, potassium and bone-building vitamin K. This version of the sauteéd green gets a flavour boost from toasted sesame oil.
Thai Roasted Trout with Fresh Lime
Rainbow trout is an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids that help keep your heart, brain and eyes healthy. This dish is as delicious as it is simple to make.
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.
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.
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.
