This Kale, Pomegranate, and Almond Winter Salad by Amy Lanza is seriously craveable and one that the whole family will enjoy. The key to any good kale salad is to massage your leaves. This wilts the leaves, turning them vibrant green and making them much more enjoyable as a base for this wintery, slaw-style salad. Add some dried cranberries, fresh pomegranate, and crunchy slivered almonds for a festive side dish.

These Green Onion Peanut Noodle Lettuce Wraps by Cameron Keller are the perfect refreshing hand-held bite for a sultry summer day. Vermicelli rice noodles, cooked until tender, soak up a spicy sriracha peanut sauce, which is then folded with fresh scallions. And when laid across the rib of a crispy leaf of romaine and finished with more green onions – both as ringlettes and a tie – as well as toasted sesame seeds, it becomes a very delicious and simple snack you gotta’ try!

6. Green Lentil Salad

The Green Lentil Salad by Wendy Irene has a nice zip to it from the vinegar, garlic, pepper and onions. It is a dish that only gets tastier as the flavors develop in the fridge. Lentils are a great vegetarian source of protein that helps keep you satiated. They make a delicious lunch or dinner. The recipe makes a large batch so you have plenty for several lunches or dinners. Feel free to cut the recipe in half if you’d like fewer servings.

A chocolate cream puff. Does it get any more decadent?! We like to make them bite-size so they are the perfect portion of rich, creamy, and oh-so-fluffy goodness. It’s hard to believe all that fanciness is the product of a very ordinary (accidentally vegan) canned biscuit. These Chocolate Coconut Cream Puffs With Coconut Whipped Cream by Frugal Vegan by Katie Koteen & Kate Kasbee can be our little secret.
