Curried Asparagus and Chickpeas

Curried Asparagus and Chickpeas -- Bringing you all of the deliciousness that a curry has to offer while serving up generous plant-based protein and fiber! Curried Asparagus and Chickpeas make a tasty side dish or a flavorful and filling main course when served over quinoa or rice, or accompanied by a refreshing salad.  I love the taste that curry powder brings to dishes.

Show Your Love with 100% Vegan, Gluten-Free, and Refined Sugar-free Confections

January 26, 2016 By Jana 2 Comments

Who doesn't love Godiva? That little golden box seems to call your name even when the lid is on.  But let's be honest: It's not much different than flavin' for a few margaritas and the ultimate regret that follows the next morning.  Boxed chocolates taste good going down, but all that refined sugar and dairy can really wreak havoc on your system. This year, show your loved one you really care by delivering a compilation of completely vegan/plant-based, gluten-free and refined ...

Chocolate Chickpea Bark

Chocolate Chickpea Bark has it all: sweet and salty, soft and crunchy. A complete taste and texture experience! You will be hooked from the very first bite. Make it a great addition to your New Year's spread. It tastes equally delicious paired with a glass of bubbly or a steamy cup of coffee. Not Just for Hummus Anymore Chickpeas (also known as garbanzo beans) boast so much nutritional value I thought they deserved to expand their recipe resume. Don't get me wrong, I love hummus ...

Are you already wondering what to do with your Tha Are you already wondering what to do with your Thanksgiving leftovers? 🤷‍♀️ Check out my new video on YouTube (link in bio ☝️ ) where I share three creative ideas for scrumptious dishes you can make with your leftovers. All of this deliciousness is (of course) plant-based, gluten-free, and refined sugar-free!😍 Do you love Thanksgiving leftovers, or are you one-n-done❓❓
Pantry problems?? When was the last time you clean Pantry problems?? When was the last time you cleaned it out or gave it a re-org? Whether your pantry has a door or is a cabinet in your kitchen, it pays to give it some TLC once in a while. 💕 I find it plays a key role in preparing meals at home--making it realistic and doable, not dread-worthy. 😣 From freeing up space by tossing items that have exceeded their shelf life to arranging items based on frequecy of use, you'll reap the reward everytime you step into your kitchen!! 💯

When was the last time you did a pantry purge❓ Would you find it helpful if I provided a step by step post or video❓ Let me know in the comments below! 🙋‍♀️🙌😊
I grew up appreciating and loving my mother’s ha I grew up appreciating and loving my mother’s handcrafted fudge. One of the many things I always looked forward to in the holiday season was mom churning out large bowls of this fudge to gift. Naturally, someone had to taste every batch and assure it was gift-worthy! 🙋‍♀️😁
[]
While this recipe is dramatically different in ingredients from traditional fudge, the taste is identical to moms. Identical. It requires only six ingredients, but you may be really surprised by one of them. Being a fudge purist, I ensured this exquisite yet simple dessert is nothing short of a pure, chocolate delight. I use coconut sugar instead of the "sugar coma" inducing refined sugars, and for that creamy goodness I use a ripe avocado. Yep! NO avocado flavor. Use a nice ripe avocado and this chocolate goodness is mouth-watering indulgent but healthier too!”

I created this recipe for Creamy Avocado Fudge years ago, and have gotten so many requests for it that I included it in my new Eat Well, Be Well cookbook! Link above. ☝️ 🥑🍫😋
I want to share a personal bit that I didn't inclu I want to share a personal bit that I didn't include when writing the Introduction to Eat Well, Be Well. In the Intro, I talk about some of the reasons I wrote the book. While they stand true, there is another layer I did not address.

My father was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes when I was young. Even then, there was a link established between dietary modifications and the progression of this disease. His doctors told him that he could dramatically slow the progression by changing his diet. Over the years we watched my father try to change the way he ate, but he would always return to his prior way of eating. Healthy food recipes that tasted delicious simply did not exist back then, or were very scarce.
[]
My father's disease progressed from oral medication to insulin injections to a loss of vision and ultimately kindney failure. He passed away at a very young age, in his mid 50's, after a failed kidney transplant. It was devastating, as is always the case in the loss of a loved one.
[]
One of the many thoughts that stuck with me over the years after his passing was the feeling that it didn't have to be that way. I know I'm not alone. Many feel this way when faced with the loss of a loved one. But I wanted to do something, if even in a very small way, to help other people avert premature loss.
[]
My greatest inspiration for creating these recipes is to use a loss for good. Making food that is life promoting and nourishing, yet doesn't make you feel like you are sacrificing by abstaining from palate pleasing flavors. I create these recipes to provide people that are battling preventable diseases, or want to be a healthier version of themselves, alternatives to the life-robbing foods. Ones that don't require isolation at the dinner table. Dishes that can be shared and enjoyed by all!
[]
I know my father would be happily picking up his fork to eat these recipes on repeat, and for me that is the ultimate satisfaction!
[]
What inspires you to do what you do?❓❓ 💗😊💯
