Cold Cucumber Avocado Soup

My cool, creamy soup is as yummy as it is pretty—thanks to the verdant shades and flavors of cucumber, avocado, green onions, limes, and cilantro. You can whip it up in minutes—and it makes a lovely appetizer course served in shot glasses.

Kiwi Herb Salad with Pistachios and Orange Dressing 

I love the combination of fresh fruits and vegetables in a brunch salad, with the sweet, fragrant flesh of fruits juxtaposed against the earthy, crisp vegetables and the crunch of pistachios. These raw ingredients are off the charts in the antioxidant vitamin C and pistachios are rich in antioxidants, such as lutein—perfect self care nutrients for mom.

Spicy Sorghum Avocado Salad 

The Latin flavors of cilantro, avocado, corn and tomatoes truly brighten up this nutrient-rich, satisfying salad, which can become the foundation of your healthy light brunch menu.

Greek Black Eyed Peas Vegan Meatballs 

Enjoying vegan “meatballs” is a thing for a light and healthy brunch! These little savory treats are delicious dipped into a flavorful tahini sauce.

Sunshine Orange Whole Wheat Rolls

I created these healthy whole grain Sunshine Orange Whole Wheat Rolls in honor of my mom, who would make them for me as a child. Bake them up to offer up some good aromatherapy (they smell divine baking!) for your mother, too!

Strawberry Rhubarb Cobbler

Turn to May’s strawberry and rhubarb season bounty to make a sweetly divine, angelic (it’s light and healthy) dessert for your mom. She’s just as sweet, and absolutely worth it.
