To me, it is Christmas time as soon as I see eggnog on the shelves. I can’t get enough of the stuff. But a drink made from sugar, cream, and eggs is not the healthiest choice. So I came up with this vegan version I can feel good about drinking all holiday season. Find the full recipe on the Susty Party Blog.

To be even more festive, serve your eggnog with these Susty Party Winter Mix Straws. Susty Party creates sustainable straws and party ware - and creates jobs for the visually impaired too! Susty Party is giving The Naked Fig readers $10 off with the promo code “NAKEDFIG”.

Buckwheat Flatbread with Goat Cheese & Summer Squash

I could post a different zucchini recipe everyday for the rest of the summer.  I never tire of eating summer squash.  On these long summer days I hate to spend my time indoors, so I find myself sticking to simple recipes like this that I can pull together in thirty minutes.  And when the produce is as good as it is in the summer, it doesn't take much to make a delicious meal.

Tomato Basil Farro with Summer Vegetable Stack & Pesto Drizzle

Last year at the Naked Fig Dinner Party I made this Tomato Basil Farro and topped it with a Summer Vegetable Stack and Fresh Pesto Sauce. I meant to share the recipe with you then, but summer came to an end and the produce was no longer available. So before another summer fades away, I want to share this simple and delicious recipe. It is so easy to make, but the presentation will make people think you worked all day on it. And it is vegan too!

Maple Pecan Banana Muffins

When it comes to baked goods, I typically prefer gluten. Some things are just sacred. But these muffins might convert me. The banana and the egg make these muffins hold together in a way that gluten-free treats can’t usually manage. They are super moist not to mention absolutely delicious. And they are so healthy!

Pear & Parsley Green Smoothie

Most people think of parsley as not much more than a garnish on their plates. Think again. Parsley is a breath freshening, nutrient dense, diabetes preventing, immune supporting powerhouse. Antioxidant rich pomegranate seeds give this recipe an extra cold-fighting boost. And as cold and flu season approaches, who couldn’t use a little extra immune support? This green smoothie is a great way to incorporate parsley into your diet.

Fall Panzanella Salad

A salad is a great side dish but doesn’t always have what it takes to be a main course. I know I’m not the only one who ends up craving carbs after eating salad. But with bread toasted in olive oil, roasted squash, and cheese, this salad can stand alone.
