As usual, I’m on the hunt for recipes to make in my dehydrator. This time, I was dreaming of a protein-packed snack that would be filling and delicious, make good use of the organic flax seeds in my kitchen and increase my Omega-3 fatty acid intake. They were a success, but be prepared…you won’t be able to stop at just one.

Is juicing just for grown ups? No way! At Freshmade they know that’s not the case. The majority of the kids who attend their cooking classes love fresh made juice.

Yams are a great switch for sweet potatoes when making delicious and healthy baked fries. These fries are different because they are round and thin instead of long and thin. This recipe is quick and easy, and using the broiler helps the yam rounds to cook fast. You can add different seasonings for different flavors; such as chili powder for a spicier taste, or basil for a more Mediterranean flavor.

When the weather warms up, there’s nothing more satisfying than biting into fresh heirloom tomatoes from the farmer’s market. They’re rich in vitamins C & K, potassium, folate, and when organically grown, they tend to be higher in lycopene. I love to get creative and come up with ways to eat more heirloom tomatoes, and one of my go-to’s is an Avocado Caprese Salad. Once you see how simple it is, you’ll know that it didn’t take too much creativity for this but it is one of my favorite meals to make, especially when I don’t have much time on my hands.
