The Brussels and Parmesan Salad That Started It All!

Love a good Brussels sprout salad? Then you have hit the jackpot! The best part is, you can shred Brussels sprouts and stash them in your fridge for at least a week. Cook those walnuts and shallots ahead of time, too!

Blueberry Pie Oat Bars

Dessert

Blueberry Pie Oat Bars

I really do love anything blueberry but especially when they come guilt free.  These decadent blues are refined sugar-free, gluten-free, vegan and incredibly delicious.  They are not too sweet, just the way I like them and a great power snack. Feel free to make raspberry bars by subbing frozen or fresh raspberries for the blueberries.

Easy Moroccan Date and Apple Strudel

This riff on Eastern European strudel is a cross between a strudel, sweet Moroccan cigar and a baklava, made easy! Make sure the phyllo dough is properly thawed in the fridge overnight. Take the package out of the fridge and set at room temperature for 30-60 minutes before use.

This is a special occasion cake but one you will go back to over and over again. If you prefer to keep this dairy free and not use the frosting, make the cake in a bunt pan and see the optional glaze in the notes.
