1. My New Roots

Favorite Recipes | Big Comfy Sweet Potato, Coconut Black Rice Breakfast Pudding

My New Roots was one of the first websites I found in college that focuses on how beautiful and delicious plant-based foods can be—and I never looked back. Sarah brings life back into dishes you think would be mundane or boring. Based in Canada, her cold-weather classics are a must for finding inspiration in the winter when all you want is mac and cheese and Seinfeld reruns. Her Big Comfy Sweet Potato recipe, I can attest, is amazing!

2. Love & Lemons

Favorite Recipes | Chocolate Zucchini Bread, Best Breakfast Burrito

For those entranced by zesty foods and believe everything could use a squeeze of lemon (I’m looking at my mom) this website is for you! Based in Chicago, Jeanine and Jack focus on bringing bright flavors and seasonal cooking to your table. The filter tab is also a lifesaver for those with dietary restrictions or people looking for a combination of ingredients and seasons.

4. Minimalist Baker

Favorite Recipes | Green Cauliflower Rice, Chocolate Chip Banana Bread Waffles

Three words. Green. Cauliflower. Rice. This stuff is addictive—it is so delicious you’ll want to make it daily. Besides my obsession, the other recipes on Minimalist Baker are the trifecta: quick, easy, and healthy. With every recipe taking under 30 minutes in one pan and 10 or fewer ingredients, it is hard to go wrong. It’s perfect for beginners and those looking to mix up the usual Trader Joe’s routine.

5. goop

Favorite Recipes | Guide to Beer and Beer Snacks, One Pan Eggs and Greens

I am a fan of basically anything Gwyneth Paltrow does, but especially when it comes to her cooking. Her cookbooks are filled with healthy, easy, and delicious recipes, but can be a little pricey. That’s why the goop food page is a great place to find similar recipes without taking up space on your bookshelf. Inventive and catered towards the working woman, I constantly find intuitive recipes that make me think “why I didn’t I think of that?”

6. Pinch of Yum

Favorite Recipes | Farmer’s Market Pasta, Roasted Vegetable Bowls

For those not quite ready to give up all the cheesy goodness and slightly unhealthy food life has to offer, Pinch of Yum is the transition site for you. With clean eating and healthy foods being at the core, you’ll still find some recipes that indulge a little more than others. Bringing fresh ingredients to the table is a great place to start living and feeling better.
