I love making a dairy-free chipotle ranch dressing– so I figured why not spice up a chicken salad with the same delicious flavors? This recipe is SO easy… and a lifesaver to have on hand in the fridge when you’re hungry for a snack or want to throw together a quick lunch. 
(one of my favorite ways to eat this chicken salad- on some pieces of purple cabbage, topped with fresh herbs, sliced radish, and everything bagel seasoning)
These cookies are insanely good, grain-free, and vegan- they also may give you a nice boost due to the espresso-you never know. If you’re feeling crazy (like I was) add in everything you can find in your kitchen, like walnuts, chocolate chips, and gluten free pretzels- you will not regret it!
These oat waffles have been on repeat in the Vibrant & Pure kitchen as of late. They are so easy to make and seriously good.
How have I waited this long to try the whole “3 ingredient” pancake thing? I feel like I’ve been doing it all wrong thus far. For a while, I had a bit of sensitivity to bananas so I avoided these kinds of recipes, but after reintroducing them and feeling a-okay, I decided to give banana pancakes a shot. I used the classic recipe combo of banana, oats and egg, (I subbed egg whites since egg yolks trigger my hormonal acne) and I added some collagen peptides- these were ridiculously good. Recipe below:
Thai curry is my favorite ‘last minute dinner’. I like to always have a few cans of coconut milk & jars of thai curry paste in my pantry for nights when I don’t know what to cook and I’m feeling extra lazy. The great part about a curry is you can sort of throw in whatever you’d like (the world is your oyster! ) It’s perfect for a “fridge clean out” extravaganza. I don’t know that my recipe is the most authentic thing in the world, but it’s how I’ve come to enjoy it and it’s very simple. Read on for the recipe
