Chicken Marengo

What Is Chicken Marengo Chicken Marengo is one of those classic dishes that’s as fun to cook as it is to eat. It’s said to have been whipped up by Napoleon’s chef after a battle victory, and let me tell you, it’s definitely a winner in my book. We’re talking juicy chicken thighs, simmered in a tomatoey sauce with mushrooms and a splash of white wine, creating a hearty meal that’s both comforting and oh-so-satisfying....

Chocolate Almond Flour Cake

Ingredients You’ll Need I love baking with almond flour, because you only need a handful of real food ingredients to make this cake batter come together. Here’s what you’ll need: Blanched almond flour (preferred over almond meal) Maple syrup Eggs Cacao powder Olive oil Vanilla Baking powder Almond flour is naturally gluten-free, so you do need eggs or starch as a binder for this recipe. I don’t recommend using flax eggs as a swap in recipes that call for more than 2 eggs, but check out my Vegan Gluten-Free Chocolate Cake for a tested egg-free recipe....

Chocolate Banana Protein Shake Vegan Nut Free

What I love most about this frosty chocolate shake is that it’s exclusively sweetened with fruit, and has a slushy texture reminiscent of an authentic milkshake. The key to this texture is using frozen banana, which is notorious for its ice-cream like qualities, and adding very little liquid, to keep the mixture nice and thick. Paired with cinnamon, which is thought to help balance blood sugar, and nutrient-rich hemp hearts, this shake packs over 10 grams of protein per serving, and will keep you satisfied far longer than a traditional milkshake!...

They’ll help you quickly satisfy your sweet tooth, without a crazy sugar crash later.

Curry Chicken Soup Stove Or Instant Pot

How to Make Curry Chicken Soup To make this flavorful soup, you’ll start by sauteing some onion, carrots, and celery, along with garlic and ginger.

Stir the powder into the sauteed veggies to bring out the flavor, then you’ll add in the veggie broth, lentils, and chicken, and let it all simmer until the chicken is cooked-through, about 30 minutes....
