The protein in this carrot cake-inspired bread comes from cashew butter and fermented yogurt, which helps keep it moist and tender. Carrots, nuts and raisins provide texture and flavor, while applesauce adds a subtle sweetness.

Start your morning with this quick smoothie full of tropical fruit flavor. Its delicious yellow color is enhanced by anti-inflammatory turmeric. Grate fresh turmeric with a microplane grater or use ground turmeric instead. Ginger gives a nice kick, but feel free to leave it out for a lighter flavor.

Chole puri is a popular North Indian dish consisting of chickpea curry flavored with a fragrant mixture of spices (chole) and served with fried bread (puri). Instead of deep frying, we opt for a healthier approach by air frying the puris. If you have an air fryer like a basket, make sure you place it in the middle of the basket to prevent the circulating air from folding them while they are cooking.
Copycat Dunkin’ Avocado Toast
Stylist: Grant Webster, Food Stylist: Holly Dresman, Prop Stylist: Joseph Wanek
This Dunkin’ avocado toast copycat was inspired by a popular menu item. We love the delicious flavors of mashed avocado, spread over a slice of toasted sourdough bread, and sprinkled over everything on the bagel for extra flavor and texture. It’s a quick and easy way to enjoy the original flavor without leaving your home!
Breakfast at Dal Bowl

Start your week with these breakfast peppers filled with eggs, refried beans, kale, and tacos. If the pepper is not flat when you are about to fill it, cut a small piece from the back (but not through) to help the filling stay in place.
Peach Pie Overnight Oats

These peach overnight oats are full of classic peach pie flavor, with warming spices and bits of ripe summer peaches that bring a breakfast-like flavor. If peaches are not in season, you can add frozen peaches – just thaw and drain before cooking.

This French toast casserole is flavored with bananas and a touch of maple syrup. The liquid on top adds peanut butter flavor to every bite. If your peanut butter is lumpy, blend the custard filling in a blender until smooth. You can add chocolate chips or chopped nuts for extra flavor if you prefer.
Spinach and Poached Egg Bowls
Wheat berries, a nutty grain with a chewy texture, are the foundation of this delicious breakfast recipe. Fiber-rich whole grains freeze very well, so make a batch to store in salads, casseroles, and more. Topped with spinach, nuts and an egg, these bowls make a satisfying breakfast. Sprinkle with crushed red pepper for extra heat.
Brownie Batter Overnight Oats

Do you like dessert for breakfast or breakfast for dessert? This brownie-batter overnight oats recipe is a delicious way to start or end your day. The melted chocolate on top is delicious to eat, and adds flavor and sweetness. If you want to skip the melted chocolate topping, stir the chocolate chips and cocoa nibs directly into the oats.

Kale, cherries and beets combine in this powerful anti-inflammatory smoothie. These three fruits and vegetables contain unique anti-inflammatory compounds that may help prevent diseases associated with chronic inflammation, including cancer, heart disease, arthritis and diabetes.
High-Fiber Dragon Fruit & Pineapple Smoothie Bowl
Photographer: Rachel Marek, Prop stylist: Holly Dresman, Food Stylist: Gabriel Greco
This healthy high fiber bowl is as delicious as it is beautiful. Dragon fruit adds a lot of color, but it doesn’t have a strong flavor, so other ingredients can shine. Pineapple is especially interesting when combined with pepitas and beeswax. Fizzy kombucha makes this smoothie bowl unique.
Corn Pudding and Apple-Berry Parfaits
These amazing parfaits are made with two colors of corn pudding and melee compote. If you like, you can use only one type of corn. Culinary ash, usually made from wood such as juniper, is used in Native American communities as a source of nutrients such as calcium, magnesium, phosphorus and zinc. These make a satisfying or not-so-delicious breakfast. Enjoy them warm or chilled. This recipe is part of our feature, There’s a Movement to Revive Native Food and Knowledge—Here’s Why It Matters.
