Valentine's Day Treats for Everyone:
For the kids: Warm-up their little hearts and sneak in an extra serving of veggies in with our Vegan Carrot & Zucchini Muffins (GF). These muffins are an excellent snack for the whole family, a great fiber source, and they will satisfy any sweet tooth in the house. Great for decorating as a family!
Superfood highlight: Beta Carotene in Carrots will keep your skin glowing, and Zucchini is rich in Folate, a source of Vitamin B.
For your lover: Who said cookies aren't part of a nutritious breakfast? Show some extra love on Valentine's Day morning & treat your sweetheart to something healthy & delicious with our Vegan Dragon Fruit Sandwich Cookies by Miami's favorite pastry chef, Valentina Cordero.
Superfood highlight: Dragonfruit is rich in antioxidants and a fantastic superfood that supports the immune system.
For a night of romance, in: Feel the heat from home by cooking up these delicious Zucchini Burger Sliders on the grill. I used beyond meat for these, but you are welcome to modify the recipe for your diet. I love to make these sliders because they make at home dinners feel like a real restaurant outing. Pairs deliciously with our Baked Feta with Veggies recipe; don't forget a glass or organic-paraben free wine. You can thank me later!
For Galentine's Day, in: A celebration of all forms of love calls for my favorite drink (sans all the sugar and calories), a Rose Water Margarita, Consciously enjoy this beauty take on a classic margarita with your girlfriends. We suggest having something to nibble on, like organic corn chips paired with my famous Lemon Pepper Tequila Hot Sauce.
Whatever your choice is, remember always to eat food that feels good, makes your heart full, and makes you smile.
With all the love in the world,
