This chicken dish that will satisfy your craving for all the most beloved Mediterranean flavors. We’ll marinate chicken thighs overnight in olive oil, lemon, allspice, and garlic, and top them off with our housemade za’atar blend before roasting them up to perfection. Za’atar is said to have its origins in ancient Egypt and translates to ‘wild oregano’. It’s a mixture of thyme, oregano, sesame seeds and sumac – a real powerhouse of flavor. Sumac is a spice made from the vibrant berries of a Middle Eastern shrub, known for its slightly lemony flavor and dark red color. Serve with any of this week’s sides and a dollop of hummus for extra deliciousness. Reheat in the oven at 350 until warmed through.

We’re excited to bring back this delicious and colorful layered salad. We’ll slow cook local beets from Happy Dirt in the oven until the skins slip off and they slice like butter. Then we’ll toss them in a flavorful dressing made with honey, dijon, organic olive oil, and a bit of cranberry for a pop of tartness. We’ll add a thin layer of shaved organic celery and top with fresh local salad greens from Red’s Quality Acre and caramelized pecans. Extra dressing will be on the bottom, so you’ll simply pour the contents into a bowl and toss together before serving. A quart makes enough salad for 3-4 people as a side or for 2 people to have a generous portion as a meal.

Chocolate avocado pudding – say what? Yep, it’s a thing. A good thing. It’s indulgent and full of chocolate-y flavor with a silky smooth texture. The avocado provides a creamy richness without you even knowing it’s there. In Brazil, avocado cream is often eaten as a dessert with sugar and lime, and in Morocco it’s whizzed up in a smoothie with almonds, dates and milk. The bittersweet richness of this decadent dessert is balanced with a layer of light cashew cream and a tart raspberry sauce on top. This parfait speaks the language of love. Enjoy.

Cherries evoke delight in most people – there’s something fun and primal about spitting out a cherry pit and cherries dangling from trees is such a satisfying sight. Originally from Asia Minor between the Black and Caspian Seas, cherries are thought to have been spread to Europe by the birds. Cheers to winged ones! Here we’ll use organic dried cherries with an abundance of almonds and a blend of other nuts and seeds, organic oats and a sprinkle of beet powder for extra nutrition and cheery color.

If you’ve never had freshly made hemp milk, you’re in for a treat. Hemp milk is considered the best milk alternative for many reasons – it’s high in omega-3 fatty acids, essential minerals and protein while also being low in carbohydrates. And growing hemp is good for the planet, helping to regenerate the soil and purify the air – pretty amazing. Hemp milk has a slightly nutty flavor and a nice light and creamy texture. We’ll sweeten the hemp milk with dates and vanilla, then add raspberries and Terrasoul baobab powder for an extra boost of vitamin C and juiciness. Baobab fruit is a nutrient and fiber-rich superfood native to Africa and Australia with a tangy sherbet-like flavor. Serve cold with our granola for the perfect snack. Or, pour over your cereal of choice, add to oatmeal or use as the base of a smoothie or drink as is. The options are endless.

This creamy delicious elixir features the immune supporting and anti-inflammatory power of turmeric. We’ll blend organic turmeric from Fiji with fresh ginger root to make a tea and blend it with a touch of cardamom, cloves and black pepper. (Did you know that there’s an anti-inflammatory compound called piperine in black pepper that enhances the body’s absorption of turmeric’s antioxidants by 2,000%? They’re a powerhouse pair!) This golden nectar is then mixed with a combination of our housemade cashew milk and coconut milk to create the perfect amount of creaminess. Add a touch of natural sweetener, such as honey or maple syrup, if you prefer a sweeter beverage. Gently reheat on the stovetop and drink in the soothing power of turmeric.

The first thing to note about this delicious concoction is that it’s caffeinated, but due to the many unique properties of matcha, you’ll feel a calm alertness without the jittery effects you get from coffee or tea. Matcha is a Japanese shade-grown green tea powder that’s loaded with powerful antioxidants, called polyphenols, and many other bioactive compounds with various health benefits, such as improved cognitive function, collagen production and reduced stress. Because matcha green tea plants are grown in the shade, the leaves are very rich in chlorophyll, which naturally supports the detoxification pathways in the body. Matcha even has the reputation of aiding Zen monks in meditation. We’ll balance out the earthy flavor of the matcha with warming spices and cashew milk to create this spectacular beverage for your morning ritual. Warm it up on the stovetop, stirring, or simply shake it up and drink cold. (Hot tip: You could add it to a blender and whizz it up with half a banana to create an even more creamy and sustaining morning affair. This is Lizzie’s new morning obsession.) **We’re upgrading our matcha moving forward to Jade Leaf’s ceremonial grade Teahouse Edition for a more vibrant beverage with a sweeter note and even more nutrition. They work directly with a grower’s collective in Kyoto to offer their premium quality matcha.

We’ve created a divine beverage – energizing, bittersweet, fulfilling. Enjoy sipping in the morning as a better-than-coffee alternative. Cacao powder is loaded with antioxidants and minerals that nourish your body and feed your cells. Reishi mushroom – which grows on the bark of hardwood trees – supports the immune system, improves sleep, and lessens fatigue. To round it out, we’re adding Lion’s Mane – a shaggy white mushroom that grows on decaying hardwoods, such as beech, sycamore and birch trees. While it’s most known for improving cognitive health and enhancing neuroplasticity, Lion’s Mane has many other healing properties which include supporting gut health and reducing inflammation. This triad balances and supports the body so well. We don’t make this drink super sweet, so feel free to add extra sweetener, a dash of maple, a stir of honey, or a scoop of collagen powder for extra oomph. Shake it up then either pour over ice or heat it up on your stove top.
