It’s time to feed your body right with healthy, wholesome dishes that will keep you going strong all year long. And we’re here to help! 

Start the year off with a good breakfast. Cranberry Almond Oatmeal combines fiber filled rolled oats with protein rich almond milk, sweet agave, tangy dried cranberries, warm cinnamon, and crunchy almonds for a meal full of nutrition and flavor.

For lunch, try a bright bowl of Carrot Ginger Soup. We’ve upped the amount of immune boosting ginger, added caraway seeds, zesty orange juice, just a splash of thick heavy cream, and a drizzle of cayenne olive oil making a smooth soup that satisfies all of your tastebuds. 

Paprika Chicken Skewers are great as a lunch or dinner option. Chicken thighs marinated in avocado oil, ground ancho, black pepper, and paprika are skewered and grilled, then paired with perfectly crisp roasted chili potatoes. It’s a lighter version of the classic meat-and-potatoes dish.

And let’s not forget dessert! Double Dark Chocolate Avocado Pudding gives you a protein rich and heart healthy luscious pudding you can enjoy guilt free. From breakfast to dessert, we’ve got you covered with healthy meals bursting with flavor and nutrition.
