If you haven’t invested in a spiralizer yet, I highly suggest you get on it! It encourages me to eat healthier by making it easy to substitute regular noodles for vegetable noodles. If you don’t have one you can still make this recipe- you will just have to cube the yams instead (or spend the extra time cutting them into very thin strips).

This gnocchi is made from ricotta cheese instead of the familiar potato gnocchi that most people are used to. Using ricotta cheese yields a lighter, less dense gnocchi than it’s potato counterpart. I used a gnocchi board to get the classic looking ridges but you can always skip this step and simply cut the gnocchi into small cubes.

Making lasagna is a labour of love. It’s time consuming but the end result is well worth it. Plus this feeds a small crowd! This recipe will yield extra meat sauce, which you will be able to freeze and serve over pasta for a quick weeknight meal whenever you are running low on time. I tried to sneak in some extra vegetables in this recipe to make up for the overload of cheese… as if it makes a difference.

These are crispy, sweet, spicy and creamy. Taco’ bout delicious! How can you go wrong? Make these gluten free by substituting corn tortillas, GF flour and GF breadcrumbs. They can also easily be made dairy free by cutting out the Greek yogurt and doubling the mayonnaise.

This is a classic comfort food turned extra healthy. I baked these on Portobello mushrooms for an extra serving of vegetables. I used purple yams (but you could use regular yams) on top instead of the usual mashed potato topping, and omitted the dairy altogether. These are hearty and a great meal for a cold fall evening and are also gluten free.
