Cranberries are not only reserved for cranberry sauce on Thanksgiving. You can impart the sweet-tart cranberry flavor into myriad recipes! From snacks and appetizers to entrees, desserts, and more, cranberries find their way into unique fall and winter favorites. Since they are only available for a short while, get your hands on them to make some of the recipes in this article.

Cranberries primarily consist of carbs and fiber, but they are also 90% water. They are some of the best sources of antioxidants, which work to fight free radicals. The most common health benefit associated with cranberries is the fact that they may help prevent urinary tract infections (UTIs). A-type proanthocyanidins prevent the binding of E. coli in the bladder, a common first step in getting an infection. If you usually develop UTIs, you may want to incorporate fresh cranberries, or fresh cranberry juice, into your diet. This is an excellent proactive approach to living a healthier lifestyle. 

The same A-type proanthocyanidins, which only exist in cranberries, that reduce the risk of UTIs also reduce bad bacteria in the gut. More research is necessary, but preliminary research shows that cranberries promote optimal digestive health. Lastly, and then we will provide you with the recipes, the certain antioxidant compounds in cranberries may exhibit anti-cancer properties. Needless to say, cranberries are superfoods that deserve a featured spot in your diet.

We are in the thick of cold and flu season, people! For this reason it is integral to enhance immune function, which is why we are providing you with some nutrient-dense recipes in this article. The unfortunate reality is that there is no magic pill or silver bullet that magically transforms the immune system into a forcefield that protects the body from everything. And the sad reality is that most immune-boosting recommendations seem boring. Hopefully, the recipes in this article are anything but boring to your taste buds!

Why Is The Immune System So Important?

In brief, the immune system protects the body from harmful substances, including germs, bacteria, fungi, and pathogens. As long as it is running smoothly, you don’t even notice the immune system’s existence. If it stops working properly, either because of aggressive germs or general weakness, you will get sick. Some germs may only make you ill the first time you encounter them, while others may cause sickness time and again. When the immune system is working properly, it:

• Activates and mobilizes to neutralize germs that can harm the body
• Ends the attack once the threat has been taken care of
• Distinguishes between cells that are yours and those that do not belong in the body
• Learns about germs after you have come in contact with them, and develops antibodies against them
• Sends out those antibodies to destroy germs that attempt to enter the body in the future

You can improve sleep hygiene, exercise regularly, spend time outside, and eat healthy foods to maintain healthy immune function. Rather than just giving you a list of foods to eat, we are providing you with tasty recipes that may contribute to more efficient immune function.

Sometimes, folks, we have to make salads a little heartier and less cleanse-approved. That’s exactly what we’ve done for this roasted chickpea fall salad. Besides the stunning and vibrant colors, this salad offers a variety of textures from the kale, pumpkin seeds, pomegranates, and roasted chickpeas. Top it with creamy avocado and chewy dried cranberries and this salad is next level. It is perfect as a vegan entree or festive fall side dish. It is fully of autumnal flavors that everyone will want more of after the first bite.

The great thing about a hearty salad like this is that they hold up for several hours, making it a great potluck salad. Kale is very sturdy, but make sure to chop it finely to help break down the fibrous texture. Additionally, remove the thick kale stems, or you’ll end up with bitter bites in every forkful of salad. If you prefer arugula or cabbage, then you can use those greens instead. With your base prepped, you can build your salad with the other featured ingredients. You’ll have to roast the chickpeas first, but if you are short on time, you can cook them in the pan. Just make sure to season them liberally, because that way they end up tasting like croutons, only more delicious.

There are a lot of savory flavors in this fall salad, but the pomegranates and dried cranberries offer freshness and tartness. Pomegranates also offer lots of antioxidants, which work to fight free radicals in the body. The subtle tartness of the pomegranate arils go great with the apple cider vinaigrette, which brings a little life and vibrance to the creamy avocado cubes. You also have the freedom add walnuts if you want, but the pumpkin seeds offer healthy fats, texture, and protein.

As soon as the weather starts to cool down, we start thinking about warming fall recipes. We are talking about soups, stews, and savory warm salads. You roast some parsnips, beets, sweet potatoes, squash, or other fall vegetables and toss them with some whole grains and sturdy greens. In the case of this fall harvest salad, you roast some golden beets and sweet potatoes before tossing them with quinoa and mixed greens. You can also use kale and bulgur wheat if you have those items on hand. You can also use couscous or wild rice in place of quinoa.

This works great as an entree salad, side salad, or meal prep dish for a couple days. If you decide to meal prep this salad, though, we recommend that you use kale, as it doesn’t get soggy like other greens. If you plan to eat this right away, use the mixed greens in the recipe ingredients. Additionally, do not dress the salad if you meal prep, as that will cause all of the ingredients to get a little soggy. We don’t know about you, but we’d prefer to not eat a soggy salad!

Roasting the vegetables is the time-consuming part of this recipe. beets can take a while to roast, so cut them uniformly and on the thinner side. The same rule applies for the sweet potatoes. You want the vegetables to roast evenly, so make sure to spread them in an even layer on a baking sheet. If you do that, they should take about 30-35 minutes to roast. Remove them from the oven and allow them to cool slightly before assembling the salad. And remember, you can cook the quinoa, prepare the rest of the ingredients, and make the dressing while the veggies are roasting.

Clean eating is one of the best ways to aid the body’s natural detoxification processes. When you eat unprocessed, plant-based foods, the body has an easier time processing the food, which aids healthy elimination. As the weather starts to cool down, though, you may be a little timid about eating raw, plant-based meals. The mornings are brisk so smoothies may not appeal to you. Nobody wants to think about juicing with winter on the distant horizon. Fortunately, you can enjoy this carrot ginger soup raw and it’ll help warm up your insides.

Naturally, the carrots color this raw soup a beautiful orange, but carrots don’t warm you up. The provide a lovely sweetness that complements the spicy ginger and raw jalapeño. Those are the two ingredients that will keep you warm, alert, and feeling fresh and clean. Eating dinner can help reduce fermentation, constipation, and other causes of intestinal gas and bloating. Whether you consume fresh, ground, or pickled ginger, it has a warming effect on the body. It can brighten dishes and provides lots of antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antibacterial properties that benefit myriad bodily processes.

Similarly, raw jalapeño helps to warm you up from the inside. Unlike ginger, jalapeño tastes spicy. The reason for this is because it contains capsaicin. This plant compound tricks your brain into thinking that you are eating something hot. As you swallow the spicy food, the capsaicin spreads throughout the body, creating a warming effect. That means that every sip of this raw carrot ginger is going to warm you up until you finish the bowl!

A fruit salad is really any combination of fruits, but this recipe calls for classic fall produce items. Pears and apples offer a refreshing crunch, but they can easily turn brown. That won’t happen in this recipe because of the lemon dressing.

Nothing like a good bag of chips, right? The crunch is so amazing and you can keep reaching your hand in that bag until you reach the point of tilting the bag to funnel the crumbs into your mouth. Now, take a second to read the ingredient list on that bag of chips. You probably notice hydrogenated oils, dyes, artificial flavors, monosodium glutamate (MSG), different powders, and other things you cannot pronounce. Not only that, a bag of chips is devoid of nutrients, so you ingest empty calories, which is why you can eat an entire bag and still want more.

That’s far from the case for these dehydrated persimmon chips. Persimmons, unlike apples and pears, are not available year round. It is a highly sought after Asian fruit during the fall and winter months. Stock up and them and use them any way you can, as they exhibit a unique flavor and lots of nutrients, including vitamins A, C, E, K, & B6, fiber, potassium, copper, folate, and manganese. Persimmons also contain flavonoid compounds that help fight oxidative stress, which can contribute chronic illnesses, including cancer, Alzheimer’s disease, and diabetes.

There are two primary persimmon varieties: Fuyu and Hachiya. Fuyu persimmons are great to dehydrate, as they tend to have a sweeter flavor profile. In order to get them perfectly crispy, use a mandoline slicer on the 3/16″ blade setting. Just remember that the thicker you slice them, the longer they take to crisp up in the dehydrator. Thin slices will dehydrate at a faster rate, but expect the process to take between eight to 10 hours.
