The AHA! Team — Fri, 15 Aug 2025 05:48:12 +0000

Recipe via Nutrition Facts – Baked Onion Rings Recipe Recipe by: Dr. Michael Greger & Robin Robertson from The How Not to Age Cookbook Onion rings were a favorite of mine growing up, but I thankfully (and heartfully) gave up my taste for those greasy oily, deep-fried, fatty monstrosities. The onion rings in this recipe come out pretty close to perfection. Try them with Black Bean Burgers and the Ranch Dressing from the How Not to Die Cookbook. COURSE: Appetizer, Side Dish DIFFICULTY: Moderate SERVINGS: 4 Ingredients ▢ 1 large red onion cut into 1/2-inch-thick slices ▢ ⅔ cup oat flour ▢ ¼ cup chickpea flour ▢ 1 cup Almond Milk ▢ 1 teaspoon rice vinegar ▢ ⅓ cup cornmeal ▢ ¾ cup bread crumbs 100% whole-grain salt-free ▢ ⅓ cup nutritional yeast ▢ 2 tablespoons Savory Spice Blend ▢ 1 teaspoon smoked paprika Instructions Preheat the oven to 425F. Line a large baking sheet with a silicone mat or parchment paper and set aside. Separate the onion slices into rings. Transfer to a bowl and set aside. In a shallow bowl, combine the oat flour, chickpea flour, Almond Milk, and vinegar. Stir to blend well. In a separate shallow bowl, combine the cornmeal, bread crumbs, nutritional yeast, Savory Spice Blend, and paprika. Mix well. In a row, line up the bowls of onion rings, batter, breading mixture, and the prepared baking sheet. Dip an onion ring into the batter, coating it all over. Transfer the onion ring to the breading, tossing to coat. Use a clean, dry hand to sprinkle the breading onto the onion as needed. Place the coated onion ring on the baking sheet and repeat with the remaining ingredients, arranging the rings in a single layer. Use a second sheet if needed. You should have enough batter and breading for about 20 onion rings. Bake for 10 minutes, then remove from oven and carefully turn rings over. Bake for about 10 minutes longer, or until crisp and nicely browned. Serve hot. To read the original article click here.

Gluten-Free, Easy Blueberry Cobbler Recipe

AHA Publisher — Tue, 31 Aug 2021 07:00:29 +0000

Dr. Josh Axe, DC, DNM, CN – Fresh blueberries are one of my favorite fruits, as they’re low in sugar but packed with flavor. They often make their way into my smoothies and pancakes, or just on top of my homemade granola. But for a real treat, my wife Chelsea and I love to make up this Easy Blueberry Cobbler Recipe. It’s relatively easy to make, gluten-free, full of the best ingredients and delicious. Key Ingredients Blueberries: Blueberries are one of the best sources of antioxidants. One study compared the antioxidant capacity of blueberries, blackberries and strawberries and found that blueberries not only contained the highest total antioxidant capacity, but also contained more of many specific types of antioxidants, including phenols, flavonoids and anthocyanins. Almond flour: People love almond meal because it’s a gluten-free flour, and it’s also a great choice for anyone on a low-carbohydrate diet. If you’re a following a Paleo diet or looking to bake without grains, almond flour is pretty much a must-have in your pantry as well. This flour is made of almonds and only almonds, which are first blanched to remove the skin and then ground up to a very fine consistency. Coconut flour: It is high in fiber, protein and healthy fats and free from wheat and other grains. Coconut flour is also low in sugar, digestible carbohydrates and calories. Plus, this flour has a low score on the glycemic index. Maple syrup: Similar to the contrast between whole and refined grains, unrefined natural sweeteners like maple syrup contain higher levels of beneficial nutrients, antioxidants and enzymes compared to white sugar. How to Make Blueberry Cobbler Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and grease an 8×8 glass dish with coconut oil. Melt the butter in a small pan at low heat. Rinse the blueberries in cold water and then place into the dish. Stir the almond flour, coconut flour, salt and baking soda in a large mixing bowl. Separately, whisk together melted butter, maple syrup and extract. Mix wet and dry ingredients together, stirring in the flax. Once well combined, quickly stir in cider vinegar. Pour batter onto berries, spreading up to the edges. Place in the oven and bake for 50 minutes.

They’re made with gluten-free flour and naturally sweetened with ripe bananas for a healthy option that will satisfy your sweet tooth. You probably already have everything on hand to make these tasty treats, too — and they’re super simple to make.

That’s because this chocolate banana muffins recipe calls for healthy ingredients and a natural sweetener to avoid a sugar overload. Here are the stars that make this take on a classic recipe healthy and delicious: Banana: You’re likely well-aware that bananas are loaded with potassium, but that’s not all. Also rich in B vitamins, vitamin C, manganese and magnesium, bananas benefit everything from energy levels to digestion, mood, heart health and more. Dark chocolate chips: When most people think of chocolate, they think of unhealthy candy bars and sugar-laden processed snacks. Dark chocolate is none of that. In fact, it’s full of flavonoids that can help combat disease and support brain, heart, eye and skin health. Coconut sugar: While you don’t want to overdo it with coconut sugar, it is a better alternative to regular sugar because it contains trace elements of iron, zinc, calcium, potassium, polyphenols and inulin. Plus, it has a lower glycemic score. Eggs: A staple in baking, eggs are a great protein source, but make sure you opt for cage-free, free-range eggs that from chickens that are free from antibiotics and hormones. Gluten-free flour: Gluten-free flour is easier on digestion and good for those with gluten sensitivity or celiac to consume. These chocolate banana muffins are a great way to get the kids cooking, so let’s get in the kitchen and start baking! How to Make Chocolate Banana Muffins Start by preheating the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Then in a bowl, mix the butter and sugar until the two are well-combined, then add in the eggs slowly, one at a time.

Fill the waiting cupcake liners, about 3/4 of the way, and bake the chocolate chip banana muffins for 18–25 minutes or until they’re baked through.

Cauliflower Fried Rice Recipe

AHA Publisher — Tue, 09 Feb 2021 08:00:16 +0000

Dr. Josh Axe, DC, DMN, CNS – Before I knew how unhealthy it really was — and before I got into cauliflower fried rice — fried rice was one of my favorite Chinese takeout orders. After all, with your choice of protein, veggies and rice, it’s an entire meal in one dish. When you start eating whole, healthy foods, that takeout order doesn’t seem so appetizing any longer. Everything is drenched in unhealthy oils, who knows where the meat is from and white rice is full of empty calories. There is a way, however, to still enjoy the delicious taste of fried rice without the icky extras. That’s where this cauliflower fried rice recipe (or faux fried rice) — like my Cauliflower Rice with Cilantro and Lime recipe — comes in. Key Ingredients Made from inflammation-fighting cauliflower, this takeout fake-out is quick and easy 30-minute recipe that’s perfect for busy nights. Plus, thanks to the low carb content of cauliflower, this cauliflower fried rice keto-friendly recipe can be eaten on any low- or no-carb diet. The ghee, meanwhile, provides healthy fat and is a healthier alternative to butter, while the garlic powder, sea salt, black pepper and coconut aminosprovide added flavor and bump up the nutrition. I like carrots, eggs and onions in mine, but you can really add whatever vegetables you have on hand — mushrooms and zucchini work nicely here, too. My fried cauliflower rice version is meat-free but still packed with protein thanks to the eggs, so it’s great for vegetarians, but if you have some leftover chicken or beef, toss it in! You can totally make this cauliflower fried rice your own. Let’s get cooking. How to Make Cauliflower Fried Rice Start by chopping the cauliflower into small chunks and adding it to a high-powered blender. Pulse until the cauliflower reaches the consistency of rice pieces. Then, in a large skillet, add in two tablespoons of ghee, one of my favorite cooking fats, and the riced cauliflower. Toss in the garlic, salt and pepper, too, and cook for five minutes. Next, add the carrot and onion to the mix, and cook until softened. The onion and garlic should smell pretty good right now! If you’re using other vegetables, add them now as well. Stir in the remaining ghee and the eggs, using a wooden spoon to break up the eggs as they scramble. Stir in the coconut aminos, a soy-free alternative to soy sauce, and enjoy! I like to add a little color to my cauliflower fried rice. If you have cilantro fans in the house, the herb makes a great garnish. If not, try chopped scallions. This cauliflower fried rice is delicious as a main meal or a quick side if you have something else planned. Try it tonight! Cauliflower Fried Rice Recipe DESCRIPTION This recipe produces cauliflower fried rice with individual grains and is lightly seasoned to allow the flavor of the rice to dominate. INGREDIENTS 1 medium head of cauliflower 4 tablespoons ghee ½ teaspoon garlic powder ½ teaspoon of each: sea salt and pepper 1 large carrot, shredded 1 medium onion, diced 4 eggs ¼ cup coconut aminos INSTRUCTIONS Chop cauliflower into small florets and add to Vitamix. Blend until consistency of rice pieces is achieved. In a large skillet over medium heat, add 2 tablespoons ghee and cauliflower. Add garlic, salt and pepper and cook for 5 minutes. Add carrot and onion and cook until softened. Add remaining ghee and eggs. Stir to scramble them and chop finely. Stir in coconut aminos and serve. To read the original article click here.
