This Romesco Risotto by Bailey Ruskus is packed with farm fresh ingredients, and unlike most risotto recipes on the internet, it does not make you feel heavy afterwards. I use a sprouted brown rice instead of Arborio for more protein and long-lasting energy.

This Apple Broccoli Salad with Creamy “Honey” Dressing by Katia Martin is deliciously dressed with this vegan sweet Creamy “Honey” Dressing. It is a light yet filling meal salad enough to satisfy any hunger, and is just so finger-licking delicious. I would also highly recommend trying it with some vegan “bacon bits” which complements this yummy salad perfectly. Enjoy!

This Swiss Chard and White Bean Grilled Sammie by Heather Poire is just as comforting as a grilled cheese but packed full of healthy ingredients. A grilled sandwich is so much better than one that is not and this tasty creation is the embodiment of summer comfort food perfected.

The only thing that’s better than jalapeño poppers or a grilled cheese is a jalapeño popper grilled cheese. The combo of vegan cream cheese and melted cheese simply brings this Jalapeño Popper Grilled Cheese by Kim Julie-Hansen all to the next level, which is probably also why this easy recipe was one of the recipe testers’ absolute favorites. If you don’t love spicy food, simply swap out the jalapeños for chopped bell peppers!
