Pesto always seemed a bit too rich for me and it wasn’t until I started to experiment with developing recipes without using the cheese that I realized just how much better it would taste.
The fragrant basil is perfectly balanced with the olive oil plus, without the cheese you loose a lot of the fat.
You can double the basil pesto sauce recipe and keep the extra, stored in an airtight container, in the refrigerator for up to a week. It is also great on baked potatoes, rice or cauliflower rice!
ENJOY!

I love kale but I also know a lot of people that are not huge fans of this super-good-for-you food. When I created this salad, that is filling enough for an entire meal, it helped turn kale-no-bees into yes please!
I use quinoa and Trader Joe’s Rice Medley which makes it hardy and nutritious but you can substitute any other grain of choice including Israeli couscous.
ENJOY!

I really love certain types of food and Thai dishes are at the top of my list. I decided to combine everything I love into one meal but kept each side separate and allowed guests to build their own bowls.
Feel free to experiment with veggies and toppings of your own, the key is in using fresh basil and coconut rice. The rest is simply up to your individual taste and creativity!
Some of my guests do not like spicy food but I would definitely recommend adding a bit of red pepper to the peanut sauce to give it a little “kick”.
ENJOY!
