Healthier Elote (or Grilled Mexican Street Corn)

April 27, 2016 by Melissa

Healthier Elote // treatswithatwist.com

Healthier Elote is such a fun way to celebrate grilling season! Instead of your typical mayo-slathered Grilled Mexican Street Corn, I've healthed it up with a better spread and amped up the flavor too.  I recently had a friend visit from out of town and we talked so much about health and healthy swaps. We were chatting about “healthing up” classic cultural recipes that most older … [Read more...]

Garden-fresh carrots are roasted up with spices and paired with Pine Nut Hummus and local honey. It's the perfect seasonal dish!  So my husband has this look of panic slash glare whenever he hears my phone hit the ground. And it happens A LOT. I have a … [Read more...]

Buddha Bowls // gluten free // treatswithatwist.com

Buddha Bowls have been my go-to lunch for a couple weeks now. I love how quick and fresh they are!

Lemon White Chocolate Chip Blondies

Lemon White Chocolate Chip Blondies // gluten free // treatswithatwist.com

These Lemon White Chocolate Chip Blondies taste like bright sunshine and are so simple to make! They come together in one bowl, are gluten free, and use a secret ingredient to keep them healthy. Make them and see if anybody can guess the ingredients! That is, if you can share them.  I didn’t really make a huge deal of it, but I had to sugar detox lately. In my mind, I had been on a … [Read more...]
