Autumn Harvest Skillet (Grain-Free, Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free, Egg-Free, Vegan, Paleo, Nut-Free, Refined Sugar-Free)
This gluten-free, grain-free, paleo, dairy-free, egg-free, refined sugar-free dish makes a filling breakfast or a special brunch feature. It is also great as a satisfying side dish for the Thanksgiving table.
Kick off your holiday with a satisfying, nutritious breakfast rich in healthy fats and protein in place of refined, simple carbohydrates and processed sugars, to sustain energy throughout the morning and keep blood sugar balanced.
Or feature the autumnal harvest stables of sweet potato, squash, apples and cranberries as a colorful side dish at dinner. The cinnamon and ginger add cozy, warming flavors while the kale adds a punch of green.
Vegan Cauliflower Apple Walnut Soup with Turmeric (Grain-Free, Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free, Egg-Free, Vegan, Paleo, Sugar-Free)
My Vegan Cauliflower Apple Walnut Soup with Turmeric balances the stress of the holiday and calms anxiety. Its creamy texture and warming spices are comforting and satisfying without added sugars, soy, gluten or dairy.
Turmeric gives this soup a cherry bright yellow color, earning it a spot at the center of the Thanksgiving table! This spice also adds healing properties, supporting liver detoxification, balancing immune function and assisting digestion.
Braised Kale with Apples and Carrots (Grain-Free, Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free, Egg-Free, Vegan, Paleo, Nut-Free)
The simple preparation of this Braised Kale with Carrots and Apples allows the real-food flavors of these fall favorites to shine! This easy-to-prepare dish makes a great gluten-free vegan side on the holiday table. It can be upgraded to a vegan entree by stirring in some lentils.
While kale is one of my favorite greens, you can also mix it up by using whatever greens are fresh and available at your local farmer’s market.
Oatmeal Cookie Apple Crisp (Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free, Egg-Free, Vegan, Nut-Free)
Of course, a special holiday meal would not be complete without a healthy, delicious dessert!
My Oatmeal Cookie Apple Crisp is a simple, easy-to-prepare treat that highlights the sweetness of this fall fruit. You could easily toss in some chopped nuts or seeds to add some extra crunch and healthy fats into the topping.
Try this vegan and gluten-free recipe for a healthy Thanksgiving dessert or even a fun fall breakfast!
Coconut Whipped Cream (Gluten-Free, Egg-Free, Nut-Free, Grain-Free, Dairy-Free, Vegan)
To make your Oatmeal Cookie Apple Crisp, holiday pies, cobblers, hot chocolate and other desserts even more decadent and special, top them with some creamy coconut whipped cream!
