The best part about cookie cakes, other than being giant cookies, is that you can eat them with your hands. This gluten-free Cookie Cake With Fudge Frosting is chewy, yet soft and topped with a delicious fudge frosting. It’s made from oat flour, coconut oil, and speckled with dairy-free chocolate chips. Top a slice with a scoop of vegan vanilla ice cream — of course, we don’t recommend using your hands for that.

This delightful Cinnamon Roll Cake tastes just like the beloved sweet pastry — in cake form! It’s decadent and gluten-free with a sweet layer of vanilla cake topped with cinnamon-y goodness. Then, it’s covered in a sweet cream cheese frosting and garnished with walnuts. Yum!

These Chickpea Salad Stuffed Avocados use the flavors of a classic potato salad (like dill, celery, and onions) but instead of mayo, the recipe employs the texture deliciousness of avocados to give the dish a creamy texture. The only way to improve on an already stellar chickpea salad would be to make the bowl and avocado – and so here we are!

So what’s the 411 on these No-Bake Peanut Butter Jelly Bars? Well, besides being ridiculously addictive and utterly delicious, they are pretty much a peanut butter and jelly sandwich in bar form.

Turn the traditional decadent dessert on its head by transforming it into a healthy breakfast with this Breakfast Banana Split!

Dairy-free yogurt replaces whipped cream and then it’s sprinkled with healthy toppings like fresh fruit, almonds, hemp seeds, and more! Hello, weekend breakfast plans!

These Teriyaki Cauliflower Tacos With Pineapple Salsa would be nothing without that pineapple salsa. Just a simple combination of fresh pineapple, red onion, cilantro, lime juice, sea salt, and if you prefer your salsa with some kick to it, go ahead and chop a few jalapeños up and toss them in. Go ahead and play with the recipe, add spice, subtract spice, do whatever! Isn’t that the best part about cooking at home anyway?

These dairy-free Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Cups are stuffed with a paleo pumpkin chocolate chip cookie dough to create a delicious yet nutritious fall-inspired dessert.

These gluten-free and vegan Banana Blondies With Caramel Frosting are a fudgy, banana treat!
