Don’t sleep on the jalapeno ranch it’s good on soooo many things! (pizza) also if cilantro tastes like soap to you I have made the ranch with parsley instead and it’s just as good! Recipe below!Potatoes:-1 lb baby potatoes -olive oil -salt, pepper, & garlic powder-for garnish: freshly grated parm & chopped parsley or cilantro Jalapeno ranch:-1/2 cup-1 cup Greek yogurt (I prefer the sauce thicker so I did 1 cup. If you like a thinner sauce do 1/2)-1/2 cup cilantro loosely packed (can sub parsley)-1 jalapeño, seeds removed -1/2 lime, juiced-2 garlic cloves -salt, pepper & onion powder 1. Preheat oven to 420°2. Add water and plenty of salt to a medium pot and bring to a boil. Add potatoes and boil for 15 min. They should pierce easily with a knife once done. Drain and set aside. 3. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spray or drizzle with olive or avocado oil. Dump potatoes onto the sheet and smash them using the bottom of a clean glass. 4. Spray/drizzle potatoes with more oil and season with salt, pepper and garlic powder. Bake for 15 min. Then flip and bake for another 10-20 min, depending on your oven and how crispy you want them. 5. Meanwhile make the dressing by blending all ingredients in a blender til smooth. Taste & adjust as needed. 6. Top potatoes with freshly shaved parm, parsley & the ranch.

*CHOOSE SPRINKLES WISELY*Cake:-2 small eggs-1/3 cup almond milk (or milk of choice)-2 tbsp maple syrup -3 tbsp granulated sugar (I used monkfruit. Can also sub coconut sugar)-1 tbsp avocado oil-1/2 tsp vanilla -Zest of 1 lemon (optional)-Juice of 1/2 a small lemon (optional)-1.25 cups almond flour -1/2 tsp baking powder -1/2 tsp salt -sprinkles of choice, for topping Frosting -56g softened butter (room temp)-113g thick Greek yogurt (room temp- can sub cream cheese)-juice of 1/2 a small lemon-2.5 cups powdered sugar (I again used monkfruit) -pinch of sea salt 1. Preheat oven to 350° and line an 8x8 or 9x9 baking pan with parchment2. In a medium bowl, add the eggs, milk, maple syrup, sugar, oil, vanilla, lemon zest & juice. Whisk to combine. 3. Add the almond flour, baking powder & salt and whisk until smooth. 4. Pour into the lined baking dish. For 8x8, I baked for 30 min. For 9x9 I baked for 25 min. Always check in a bit earlier cuz every oven is different. A toothpick should come out clean when it’s done. Allow cake to cool completely. 5. To make the frosting combine butter and Greek yogurt in a bowl and mix on high speed with a mixer until smooth (2 min) 6. Add the lemon juice & salt and mix again until smooth. Add the powdered sugar 1 cup at a time and mix on low speed until incorporated. Then increase speed to high and beat another min. Set in the fridge to stiffen up while the cake finishes cooling. 7. Once cake is cool, choose your container of choice and press it into the cake, or if your container is different than mine you may have to cut out the proper size with a knife. See video for how to assemble 8. I like to break up the leftover cake scraps and layer with frosting, fruit, nuts, whatever fillings you have so you don’t waste all that amazing cake! #dotcake #cake #glutenfree #glutenfreedessert #lemoncake by @zmargotz

A healthy take on ice cream or mousse or pudding? Either way, it’s dessert, it’s easy and it’s delish!! Recipe below!-1 banana-1 tbsp dark chocolate chips (I did sugar free. Use whatever you like!)-1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt -pinch of salt 1. Either mash your banana in a bowl OR you can quickly caramelize it for some extra good flavor. For caramelizing, i slice the banana and then spray a pan with avocado oil over medium heat. Add banana slices and allow to sit for 2-3 min. You can add a drizzle of honey or maple syrup but I don’t think it needs it!! Flip bananas and allow to sit about 2-3 min. I like to place them in a little bowl and set them in the freezer to cool slightly while I do the rest. 2. Melt chocolate in the microwave- it’s a small amount so it should just take about 30 seconds. 3. Mix banana & Greek yogurt in a bowl. Pour in chocolate and gently mix. 4. Using a small cookie scoop of a spoon, scoop the mixture onto a parchment lined baking sheet. 5. Place in the freezer for 10-20 minutes. When I’m impatient I do 10, but if I have the time I do 20. It’s great either way. Super simple and healthy dessert!! Enjoy🩷#healthyrecipe #healthydessert #banana #chocolate #easyrecipe by @zmargotz
