Different and Amazing Ways to Use Avocados The avocado may have been around for 10,000 years, but head over to Pinterest and it’s clear it’s enjoying a spotlight worthy of any trendy, nutrient-packed food. In 2007, avocados became available in every state when the USDA cleared the import of the Mexican variety of the tree fruit nationwide. Guacamole made from avocados is delicious, but it’s also full of healthy fats. Brussels Sprout, Lentil, and Kale Salad With Cranberries If you need a respite from all-butter-everything this holiday season, be sure to consider this gloriously green salad. Kale, brussels sprouts, and glossy black beluga lentils provide its wholesome base, while dried cranberries, toasted pecans, and clusters of clementine wedges are a festive nod to the season. While it's best the day of, it can be made ahead with almost as good results. To keep it fresher in texture, add the clementine wedges just before eating, as they tend to wilt by the second day.

Kale Salad Recipe If you're in need of a scrumptious Thanksgiving side, don't overlook kale. Fresh Tart recommends this raw kale salad with feta cheese and pine nuts. I first wrote about this recipe a few weeks ago when I described our trip to San Francisco. Flamin' Hot Cheetos Kale Salad Recipe Some questions that are likely coursing through your head: 1. What are Flamin' Hot Cheetos doing on that kale salad? 2. Could it possibly be any good? 3. Just . . . why? Sesame Ginger Kale and Quinoa Salad Recipe I'm a sucker for any salad that includes the powerhouse duo kale and quinoa. Both are jam-packed with nutrients like vitamins A, C, and K (kale) and healthy fats, protein, and fiber (quinoa), making the combination a healthy and filling lunch option. One of my favorite ways to enjoy this superfood salad combination is from a local eatery by our San Francisco office, Urban Picnic. Its kale and quinoa salad gets an Asian twist with sesame soy ginger dressing and sliced nori. Blueberries, tomatoes, and carrots add a bit of sweetness, while sliced almonds give it a satisfying crunch.

Shredded Brussels Sprouts and Kale Salad Generally speaking, I'm more of a salad gal in Summer and a braised greens lover once Fall begins to hit its stride. But recently, I've discovered the best way to reconcile the two: by utilizing dark, leafy brassicas in their raw form, massaging them by hand with a drizzle of Autumn-tinged maple vinaigrette until slightly wilted and tender. Case in point: this shredded brussels sprouts salad, which is the darling of my kitchen at this very moment.

Shredded Brussels Sprouts and Citrus Salad Do you believe in love at first sight? I do! Maybe not romantically, but rather in the case of what will please my palate. Specifically, I knew that I was destined to enter a whirlwind romance with this tart and tangy shredded kale and brussels sprouts salad as soon as I set my eyes upon it. In this case, my woman's intuition was spot-on; perfect in its original iteration (it's a favorite amongst our whole team), this salad-slaw hybrid is even better — at least better catered to my proclivities — with a few minor tweaks and additions (reflected in the recipe below). Now, before you fear that this is all bluster, I've been so smitten that I've already made it three times in the past month — a rarity for someone whose job is to test recipes . . .

10 Uses for Chia Seeds I’ve been meaning to write this post for a long time and finally had the time while the kids are napping and I am (ironically) sipping a Chia Seed Energy Drink (recipe below).
