This vegan crumbled sausage has great sausage flavor and plenty of texture. You can eat it alone or mixed into other dishes or sauces, like marinara, and spooned over zucchini noodles or coins, cauliflower or spaghetti squash. It really is great tasting.
This easy recipe is delicious and one of our favorite salads. If you haven’t tried artichokes, this is your opportunity to walk away with two thumbs up! Artichokes are not only low-glycemic, therefore, friendly to your blood sugar, but are also very nutritious. Even for picky eaters, artichokes are easy to love. They have a very mild flavor (milder than a cucumber) and satisfying texture. Once you try them, you’ll be hooked!

A stir fry is always a great choice to get your protein, vegetables and fat all in one easy dish. Plus, you can use the leftovers for an easy lunch or dinner another day. If cabbage hasn’t been one of your favorite vegetables in the past, give this recipe a try. Shredding the cabbage and stir frying brings out a whole new flavor profile.
This is a very flavorful and easy recipe for our vegan and vegetarian clients. Tempeh provides density, structure and high-quality protein to this dish. The nutritional yeast also provides a boost of protein and B-vitamins, as well. Non-vegans can always substitute the tempeh for ten ounces of thinly sliced sirloin, as the nutritional yeast flavor is toned down in this recipe. To serve over cauliflower rice, use 1/2 cup of cooked rice and 1/2 cup of the cooked broccoli.
As more vegans and vegetarians are joining Genesis, it is important to help them enjoy delicious protein-rich recipes that are of high-quality. Soy is a great source of protein for vegans and vegetarians, when it is a non-GMO, whole-food fermented product like tempeh, miso, tofu and edamame; not highly-processed soy isolates and concentrates or genetically-engineered soy junk foods like soy cheese, soy ice cream, soybean oil and soy burgers. This recipe is not only fast, easy and delicious, but also has great texture. You can use it to make lettuce leaf tacos, a taco salad or just eat it straight out of a bowl.
This quick and easy recipe is very interesting! It takes protein-packed hemp hearts (found at most grocery stores or Amazon) and creates a tasty, savory “rice” pilaf. All clients can use this recipe. We have it pictured as a side dish with a vegetable, but you can also add it to Creamy Cauliflower Leek or Roasted Tomato Soups, etc. It would be delicious topped with Creamy Decadent Mushroom Sauce – just think outside the box. Hemp hearts are a nutty-flavored protein source, not a vegetable, so serving it with a protein would not work.

In case you haven’t heard yet, turmeric has quickly become one of the most sought-after medicinal spices to aid in the reduction of inflammation. A powerful anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory agent, the active component of turmeric (curcumin) has be shown to help not only with heart disease, Alzheimer’s and cancer, but to also significantly improve depression and arthritis symptoms, in addition to being a disease preventative.
This really is an easy (and surprising) soup. Most low-carb taco soups contain cheese or cream cheese, beans and other ingredients not included in clean eating. Don’t let the ranch dressing throw you! It makes the soup creamy, and the spices lend a great flavor. I have tried this soup with Primal Kitchen Ranch Dressing, but have not cared for the outcome, so stick to the quick and easy Genesis Ranch Dressing recipe (delicious!)
Not only is soup a favorite in the cold weather months, it’s also a very hearty, healthy option on your weight loss program. This stuffed pepper soup is loaded with ground beef, cauliflower rice and Bell peppers in a tomato-based broth that tastes just like classic stuffed peppers without all the fuss!
If you enjoy Asian international flavors, give this Thai soup a try. Thai food is known for balancing out five flavor profiles, being sweet, spicy, salty, sour and creamy. The roasted butternut squash lends plenty of sweetness, the red curry paste adds spice (so temper it to your liking!), coconut milk makes everything creamy, and you can add your salt and lime to balance to your taste.
