School is back in session and that means after school snacks! Check out these no-cook energy bites.
Cold Brew Overnight Oats
As summer winds down, it’s important to make each sun-kissed day matter. Soon we’ll be saying goodbye to longer days and a more carefree schedule, as well as all that amazing summer produce. I like to kind of overdose on all my favorites, so that I don’t miss them as much when they’re finally gone. Fresh local corn is one of those foods I can never get enough of. Right now it’s absolutely perfect — sweet, juicy and great right off the cob or used in recipes like this easy frittata. I like the added flavor of grilled corn, but you can also use boiled or steamed corn.
Vegan No-Bake Pumpkin Pie
This creamy dessert is fancy enough for a dinner party, but easy enough to make on a weeknight because there is no cooking required! You can make this gluten-free by using GF graham crackers or pie crust.
Tomato-Melon Gazpacho
One the of quintessential flavors of summer is a cool, zesty bowl of gazpacho. I like including melon for a touch of sweetness and extra hydration. This vegan recipe is excellent on its own, but if you want to boost the protein, you can add sautéed shrimp, diced grilled chicken or chopped almonds.
