Zucchini pie anyone?!? When I say zucchini pie, most people give me a weird look! However, when they try it, they find that it is quite yummy! It reminds me of a custard pie; smooth, creamy, amazing. It is a great way to use up that one zucchini that you found hiding that has grown to the size of a small baseball bat.

Looking for a cool, delicious summertime treat?!

This one is dairy free, reminds you of a tropical island and is so so refreshing! I made this for guests one evening and it was a hit!

This dish contains NO ADDED sugar making it a great option for a snack or dessert or even a breakfast treat!

Bonus tip: add chia seeds and a handful of greens for extra health benefits! (However if you do add greens, it will loose the pretty color.)

*You can also freeze this in a container to eat later.

RECIPE UPDATE: I used strawberries in place of the pineapple and boy was it good!

Fresh Garden Salsa

Fresh Garden Salsa!

One of my favorite things about summer is the bountiful produce! With that comes one of my favorite recipes that I HAVE to make several times each year: Fresh Garden Salsa!

There are several different varieties of this recipe that you can use. Add black beans and corn for more of a meal, leave out the peppers, add more peppers, add avocado(if you have leftovers, they will get brown and yuck) or any other combination that sounds good.

You can serve them with blue corn tortilla chips (my favorite), add quinoa to make a salad, quesadillas..the possibilities are endless. Get creative 🙂

Happy Munchin’ 🙂 *Please choose organic ingredients when possible.

Avocado Chicken Salad

Avocado Chicken Salad is a must try if you are an avocado lover!

This is one of my absolute favorite dishes! It is great for a summertime meal (or anytime really)! The combination of the protein with healthy fats make it a balanced meal! Serve over gluten free nut crackers or in brown rice tortillas! I don’t have exact measurements of the ingredients, as this is a “dump together to whatever consistency that I want” type of dish!

Inspired by an online recipe.

Yummy Mexican Salad

This Mexican salad is very delicious! One of my favorites in the summer! Containing black beans for the protein, complex carbs & healthy fats, it should keep you full and those blood sugar levels stable. There are not exact measurements for this recipe as it is kind of a dump and mix sort of thing!
