One vegetable delight of Autumn is the Brussels sprout. These small leafy balls are packed with fiber as well as taste, and they deserve a place at your Thanksgiving table.
My favorite method of cooking Brussels sprouts is to roast them.

It's harvest time for apples and pears, and nothing says Autumn like warm crisp featuring both Fall fruits. Here is a variation of a recipe from RecipeZaar. I substituted a few things like Sucanat for brown sugar, whole wheat flour for all-purpose flour, and Earth Balance margarine in place of butter.

This Spring I've been looking for healthy dinner ideas that are different, tasty, and healthy. I was delighted to find this recipe for spaghetti with summer squash and peppers. Granted, it's not the easiest to make (in terms of cutting and slicing all the veggies) but it's really filling, super tasty, and definitely worth putting your knife skills to work.

Blueberries are low in calories and high in antioxidants, so they definitely fall into the super food category. I always throw a few on my cereal when I have them off hand, but I never thought about throwing them in a salad too.
That is why when I found this blueberry chicken salad recipe, I just had to share it with you all.

I am not a very accomplished cook, and I certainly don't consider myself a seasoned baker. However, I found an incredibly simple bread recipe for a bread that met all my nutritional standards. It's made primarily from spelt flour which is far more nutritious than wheat (and not refined), and contains no yeast.

Thanksgiving is fast approaching, and my love of all things pumpkin is hardly waning. From yogurt to muffins, I relish this tasty flavor of Fall. If you're looking for a pumpkin pie alternative, these pumpkin-carrot bars are delish.

Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays because I love all the warm, savory dishes. This one has been in my family for years and it's sweet, creamy, and has a crunchy topping that reminds me of homemade mac and cheese. It's easy to prepare ahead of time, and is a great alternative to mashed potatoes or stuffing.
