  • NEW RECIPE ALERT! This Roasted Vegetable Buddha Bowl with Maple-Dijon Vinaigrette is really easy to make and packed with amazing superfood flavor. It’s great as a pre- or post-workout meal 💪, and perfect for when you want an easy dinner on a busy weeknight. Get the link in the bio and check it out!
  • New recipe is on its way. But in the meantime, check out this Chickpea Niçoise Sandwich. It incorporates my super yummy Chickpea “Tuna” Salad and all the usual Niçoise ingredients—plus a few extras. If you’re looking for a light, flavorful lunchtime treat, this is your guy.
