Dairy Free
Ultimate Power Balls
Before morning runs, I'm always looking around the kitchen for a healthy nibble that will hold me over until I can eat a proper breakfast. These 86-calorie bites are just the ticket. And since they are dairy- and nut-free (and wheat-free if you use puffed rice), they pass the school test!
Red Ginger Juice
This juice is a real energy boost, and it's great when you need a pick-me-up or when you need to fuel a workout. The fruit provides energy, while the beet increases endurance, and the celery and fennel push out toxins.
Sesame-Crusted Salmon
Sesame seeds have a powerful antidepressant effect and provide the basis for this healthy, restorative dinner.
Color Me Red
This recipe is a variant of Color Me Pink and is a great way to add variety to a weight-loss program. Beets are substituted for the raspberries here. Trust me, it tastes great. The beet tops are not used in this recipe, but save them for another juice.
Beet It Juice
Boost your detox with some potent and bright beet juice. I love the pretty color of beets and their sweet and earthy flavor. The ginger adds a kick and some anti-inflammatory benefits. The lemon makes it all come together. And don't worry; I didn't forget about the greens either. A cup of kale should round things off perfectly. To good health!
Green Energy
This supersmoothie is packed with antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals. The spirulina is a great protein-booster, too.
Spicy Jicama Fiesta
This juice is very interesting and possesses significant health benefits because of the combination of ginger and radish. Give it a try for a change of pace.
Red Delicious
Orange and carrot add depth and color to red apple juice plus another gift: a good dose of vitamin C and beta-carotene.
Mango-Kale Juice
This is a green juice that doesn't taste green. The mango adds antioxidants and sweet flavor, while the nutrients in the kale and apples help detoxify the liver and fight free radicals.
Big Apple Detox
With its creamy, delicate flavor and cleansing ginger, this juice is perfect for after an indulgent holiday or Christmas.
Color Me Pink
This recipe is a great way to start the day, especially if you are on a weight-loss program. It is low in calories, but the natural fruit sugars will keep your appetite in check. This drink is particularly rich in flavonoids. Make sure you leave as much of the albido (the white pithy part of the peel) as possible on the grapefruit, as this is rich in flavonoids.
Ginger-Lemongrass Turkey Burgers With Crispy Kale
These flavorsome burgers are ideal for relaxed family meals and offer a good hit of mood-lifting tryptophan.
Power-Boosting Beets
This robust, vibrant-color juice is packed with big flavors and energy-boosting nutrients to get you going in the morning.
Macadamia Nut "Ricotta"
Raise your hand if you miss cheese!
Seared Salmon with Winter Vegetables and Kombu Broth
This light but richly flavored broth is good with any fatty, skin-on fish fillet, such as Arctic char or sea bass.
Nacho Vidal
The spicy and perfectly tart shrub (flavored drinking vinegar) gives this pitcher-friendly cocktail a refreshing quality.
Dried Chile Salsa
This smoky, fiery concoction is inspired by Bar Amá's "Bus Driver" salsa.
Thai Beef Stew With Rice Noodles
Spoon gingery, slow-cooked beef and vegetables over wide rice noodles for a warming, soul-satisfying dinner.
