3-Ingredient No-Bake Coconut Honey Nut Butter Cups (Grain/Gluten-Free)

04/17/2017
3-Ingredient No-Bake Coconut Honey Nut Butter Cups

Yes, I know "simple" is so over-used by recipes where one of the ingredients is puff pastry, or Nutella, or boxed cake mix. But this is the real deal, old-fashioned simple. If you don't opt for the toppings, these are the simplest, easiest, no-brainiest bars ever to be.  There are literally 3 ingredients, no baking. Only measuring. Measuring just three ingredients. Of course, I co[...]

Artichoke Prosciutto Frittata with Arugula and Parmesan

03/21/2017

I put this frittata recipe together to showcase one of my favorite brands, that I enjoy almost daily: Vitals Farms. If you're searching for responsibly-sourced protein, Texas startup Vital Farms should be on your radar. The company works with approximately 60 farms to produce and distribute 1.5 million eggs from pastured chickens every week to stores across the country such as Whole Foods[...]

Springtime Honey Lemon Cookies (Grain/Gluten-Free)

03/12/2017

Can you tell I am so ready for spring? These simple springtime-inspired honey lemon cookies helped ease the craving for warm weather, buds opening in the gardens and on trees, and baby animals frolicking (I'm nostalgic for the chicks and foals every year on my parents' ranch back in Texas during my childhood). I also used this cookie recipe as an excuse to dig into honey contamination, adulte[...]

I have been giving some thought to more meatless recipes here on Fresh Planet Flavor in the past few weeks...

These amazingly simple 2 Ingredient Banana Nut Cookies are a quick, healthy, versatile snack as is or a great starting point to play with add-ins. | Fresh Planet Flavor

These 2 Ingredient Banana Nut Cookies are low-key genius. Combine nuts and banana, bake. When I first developed my 2 Ingredient Banana Coconut Cookies, I was amazed that something so simple as bananas and coconut could possibly combine to create anything that even remotely resembled a cookie. The same amazement applies to these 2 Ingredient Banana Nut Cookies (the basic version without add-in[...]

Lumberjack Omelet (and How to Decode Your Egg Carton) | Fresh Planet Flavor

THIS. This breakfast is... huge, and unrepentant. Enough to feed Paul Bunyan (and Babe, too) which is why the "Lumberjack Omelet" name seemed to fit.  You can't go wrong with an omelet filled with sun-dried tomatoes, bacon, mushrooms, and accompanied by avocado, smashed potatoes, and arugula. As I was whisking the eggs for this recipe, however, the importance of suppo[...]

30-Minute Thai Beef with Basil (with Carbon-Farmed Beef)

This quick and tasty 30-Minute Thai Beef with Basil is my first recipe introducing carbon farmed beef. What is carbon farming? The TL;DR version: it's a style of farming that removes carbon dioxide from the air through agriculture. How it works involves a quick science lesson: all agricultural production involves the process of plant photosynthesis, which uses sunshine to combine carb[...]

Vegan Parsley Pesto with Egg and Avocado (How to Fight Food Waste at Home)

This Vegan Parsley Pesto with egg and avocado is a quick (and delicious) way to use up both leftover herbs and nuts at the same time.

Getting food from the farm to our fork eats up 10% of the total U.S. energy budget, uses 50% of U.S. land, and swallows 80% of all freshwater consumed in the United States. That's the statement by Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) scientist and "food waste warrior" Dana Gunders that begins Wasted: How America Is Losing Up to 40 Percent of Its Food from Farm to Fork t[...]

Say no more: the bold flavors of oysters plus garlic, Mexican oregano, cilantro, queso fresco and more make this recipe for Oysters Olé more than the sum of its parts. | Fresh Planet Flavor

I went in a different direction, flavor-wise, with these oysters (in a big way). With summer in full swing, I wanted to combine the briny freshness of oysters with cherry tomatoes in the height of their season, plus fresh herbs with jalapeño and lime to achieve a real celebration for the palate.

Have you heard the phrase "breakfast is the most important meal of the day"? Where did you hear it? Do you believe it? Why? Perhaps because your mother told you, who was doubtless quoting the words of highly-qualified, impartial nutritionists who publicized their findings after rigorous research?

75 Healthy Kid-Friendly Snacks

Today I have a boatload of recipes for healthy kid-friendly snacks, which remind me: have you been following the drama between the FDA and Kind bars? The FDA is re-evaluating its definition of what counts as a "healthy" food, because healthy fats—such as the fats found in nuts and avocado—are increasingly recognized as part of a nutritious diet. The change was precipitated[...]
