    JELLY CUPS

    JELLY CUPS

    MAKES 16 jelly cups (1 per serving) PREP TIME: 10 minutes, plus 30 minutes to chill COOK TIME: 5 minutes Like collagen peptides, gelatin is packed with health benefits, but unlike collagen, it has gelling properties. It’s a bit cumbersome to use, so I wouldn’t be...

    ERVES 4 PREP TIME: 10 minutes COOK TIME: 18 minutes Sometimes avocado gets a little boring—gasp, did I just write that? Let’s do something about that, shall we? These fries are awesome dipped in Ranch Dressing (here) or Green Speckled Dressing (here). 2 medium Hass...

    KETO DIET SNACK PLATE

    KETO DIET SNACK PLATE

    SERVES 1 PREP TIME: 5 minutes (not including time to hard-boil egg) COOK TIME: — Let’s not overthink keto meals, okay? A lot of keto folks swear against snacking, and that’s fair. We shouldn’t have to snack too often while burning fat. But snacking is a perfectly safe...

    ZUCCHINI CAKESWITH LEMON AIOLI

    MAKES 8 small cakes (4 per serving) PREP TIME: 20 minutes COOK TIME: 22 minutes These cakes are ridiculously good. They are creamy on the inside and crisp on the outside. You’ll think there is cheese inside . . . but there isn’t! The full-on bacon flavor pairs so well...

    TUNA CUCUMBER BOATS

    TUNA CUCUMBER BOATS

    SERVES 1 PREP TIME: 5 minutes COOK TIME: — I’m a fan of boat things, so much so that my little family lives on a boat! But really, shaping your vegetables into boats—like I did with the Creamy Spinach Zucchini Boats (here) and the Hummus Celery Boats (here)—is an easy...

    BREADED MUSHROOM NUGGETS

    BREADED MUSHROOM NUGGETS

    SERVES 4 PREP TIME: 15 minutes COOK TIME: 50 minutes Oh, tasty! This is a great recipe for when you have guests over or you want to fancy up your snacking game. Because mushrooms are naturally wet, this recipe doesn’t keep well, meaning that the mushrooms won’t have a...

    TOASTED ROSEMARY NUTS

    TOASTED ROSEMARY NUTS

    SERVES 5 PREP TIME: 5 minutes COOK TIME: 10 minutes I used almonds for this recipe because it’s what I had on hand, but you can use any nuts you’d like. The slight differences will be seen in the cook time and measurement for each type of nut: for pecans, use 1½ cups...
