Egg Roll Bowls
PrintVegetarian Egg Roll BowlsAuthor Marcia W. Smart Use Napa Cabbage sliced thin for this vegetarian sauté; shiitake mushrooms are delicious here, but if you can’t find them, cremini mushrooms also work. Adapted from Lexi’s Clean Kitchen, who adapted her recipe from Skinnytaste, their versions use 7 ounces ground pork, which is a tasty addition. Ingredients1…
Healthy Seven Layer Dip
Healthy Seven Layer Dip I have friends to thank for this one. Iterations of this appetizer kept showing up at casual poolside barbeques and weekend gatherings last summer. Healthy, colorful and easy to assemble, it’s definitely a crowd pleaser. To assemble the appetizer, spread out the ingredients in thin layers on a white platter or…
Coconut Lime Cauliflower Rice
Meet coconut lime cauliflower rice, your Whole30 best friend. When I did my first full Whole30 in January, I didn’t realize how much cauliflower rice I’d go through. It even went into a legume-free version of Whole30 cauliflower hummus I conjured up. But after a while, all that cauliflower rice at the bottom of my…
Whole30 Romesco
Romesco to the rescue. I’m a sucker for a snack platter: Colorful crudité, cheese, fruit, you name it. It’s a choose-your-own-adventure way of eating. Just put out all the options and let everyone dig in. Case in point, this Whole30 red pepper romesco with colorful veggies ready for dipping. Beautiful enough to set out for…

Instant Pot Black Beans
True confession: My Instant Pot sat in a box for a year after I bought it. I was afraid of it. Visions of imploding appliances danced in my head. But finally, with some encouragement from a friend, I unpacked it and gave it a whirl. Instant Pot black beans were one of the first of…
Salsa Verde Chicken (Slow Cooker or Instant Pot)
Tacos to the Rescue At the risk of sounding smug, this is what I’d call a “stupid easy” dinner. It’s one of those set-it-and-forget-it wonders that makes your night stress free. Or at least the dinner prep portion of your night. This is my answer to late baseball nights, busy work weeks and general chaos….
Matcha Green Tea Latté
Matcha is like warm green tea ice cream in a cozy mug. I’ve heard about matcha for so long, and strolled by matcha cafés popping up in New York and L.A., but I had yet to try the green stuff until last week. For something so full of antioxidants, Vitamin C and L-theanine, it’s darn…
Whole30 BLT Frittata
