This springtime quinoa salad is perfect as a side dish to any meal or a light lunch. Make sure that the asparagus and kale are sliced in time for the last two minutes of the quinoa cooking.
Vegetables and side dishes
Cacio e pepe roasted spring asparagus
There are a few non-negotiables (smile) that make this dish perfect: the peeling off the woody bottoms of the asparagus spears, the blanching in salted water and the quick roast at the end.
Too-easy grilled corn salad with herbs and stone fruit
This super yummy corn salad is the perfect addition to any summer BBQ dinner. You can make it ahead or serve it right off the grill.
Roasted whole carrots with tahini drizzle
Tahini drizzled on roasted carrots is so delicious. Tahini is sesame seed paste and you will find it near the peanut butter in most grocery stores.
Traditional fried rice – the healthy way
Fried rice is a great weeknight meal—easy and delicious! This recipe is a “healthy” version of the traditional recipe since it includes lots of veggies, is low in sodium, and uses brown rice.
Sheet pan beet salad with caramelized onion, pear and hazelnuts
Cooking all your ingredients in foil pouches in the oven makes this beet salad deliciously easy and incredibly flavourful.
