Carrot Cake Zucchini Muffins

Image 9 Comments March 6, 2024 Vicki Brett-Gach

I am coaching a lovely client in Georgia who has been asking me about making a healthy carrot cake recipe. Mmm, carrot cake…

That got me thinking about combining flavors – of carrot cake AND zucchini bread together. I kept … Read more


Holiday Celebration Salad with Creamy Beet Dressing

Image Leave a comment December 15, 2021 Vicki Brett-Gach

I created this salad for the first time right after Thanksgiving, and I’ve already made it several times since. I was hoping it would resemble a holiday wreath of sorts, and the contrasting colors and shapes made it so much … Read more


Shortcut Roasted Carrot Hummus

Image Leave a comment September 30, 2020 Vicki Brett-Gach

I’ve been getting plenty of carrots in my weekly CSA (community supported agriculture) box, and like to oven-roast them … Read more


Jalapeño Queso

Roasted Carrots, Potatoes, and Onions (Oil-Free)

ZUCCHINI, CARROT, AND PINEAPPLE BREAKFAST MUFFINS

Sometimes one thing leads to another.

That’s what happened when I decided to make zucchini muffins a few days ago.

First, ZUCCHINI, CARROT, AND PINEAPPLE BREAKFAST MUFFINS 2I thought it would be fun to add carrots for extra color.

Carrots reminded me of carrot cake, and … Read more


Red Cabbage and Mango Slaw

Red Cabbage and Mango Slaw

Cole slaw doesn’t usually sound very colorful or exciting, but this one may change your mind. I think it’s incredibly delicious, and I have a feeling you will too.

With crunchy red cabbage, crispy carrots, delicate cilantro, and smooth, sweet … Read more
