Roasted Potato, Broccoli, and White Bean Soup, Kathryn's Clean Eating

This recipe is based on one found here: http://cleaneatingchelsey.com/2011/09/28/roasted-potato-broccoli-and-white-bean-soup/ I used one can of butter beans and one can of chickpeas. I used 2 pounds of German butterball potatoes (yellow potatoes). The sun dried tomatoes I used are probably a bit of a cheat to clean eating. Other than that, I followed the recipe on the website.

Sweet Potato and Quinoa Salad, Kathryn's Clean

This recipe is based on one found here: http://tastykitchen.com/recipes/salads/sweet-potato-quinoa-salad/ I substituted zante currants in place of cranberries and did not add the red pepper. I also doubled the amount of quinoa from the original recipe.

Carrot Cake, Kathryn's Clean Eating

Recipe adapted from the one found on this website: http://www.three14creations.com/blog/2008/11/eat-clean-carrot-cake/ I modified it slightly by adding a cup more grated carrot and partially using honey in place of maple syrup. Also I used vanilla extract instead of molasses. It does not have any white flour, sugar, oil, or eggs. It uses whole wheat flour, honey and maple syrup, and natural unsweetened applesauce. The cream cheese frosting is sweetened with honey and maple syrup as well. As long as you consider cream cheese "clean," this is a completely "clean" dessert.

Multigrain Muffins with Apples and Sour Cream

Recipe from http://lifeloveandfood24.blogspot.com/2010/09/muffin-interlude.html A few last-minute notes: these muffins are rich, not too sweet, and freeze beautifully, which is great if you happen to make them before leaving town and have a few leftover muffins to save for later.

Kathryn's 15 Bean Soup

15 Bean Soup - modified recipe from back of Hurst's HamBeens Brand, minus the ham, double the tomatoes This recipe uses the entire bag of beans, and 28oz can of crushed tomatoes.

Low Fat Butternut Squash and Apple Soup

This is a quick and easy soup, which can be made even faster if you have pre-packaged cut squash to hand. Full of vitamins A and C and with a healthy dose of fiber, this soup makes a nutritious and delicious lunch. This soup can be gluten free if you check the ingredients on the broth.

Makes enough for one small, thin crust pizza.

Kathryn's Brussels Sprouts (Deborah Madison's Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone)

This recipe is amazing! The original recipe comes from Deborah Madison's cookbook "Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone," and I've made slight modifications. I am a total convert to Brussels sprouts now, and I promise if you try this recipe, you'll suddenly wonder where Brussels sprouts have been all your life too. They come out so crisp and sweet, and are paired wonderfully with the red pearl onions and walnuts. The recipe is a bit labor-intensive, but I think it's worth it.

Kathryn's Teriyaki Tofu Marinade

This is an extremely flavorful marinade for tofu that's got a real kick. I recommend pressing the water out of a block of tofu, then dry-frying it before soaking it in the marinade.

Honey-Ginger Carrots

Sweet and savory at the same time, these carrots are delicious. I've adapted the original recipe I found (in RealSimple) by cutting back on the oil and butter, increasing the ginger, and adding garlic.
