Rootastes’ Chefs’ Curated Recipes

Wake up excited to greet the day with a Ribboned Spring Asparagus Salad with Orange Supremes. This meal is as hearty- and healthy- as it is delicious and is sure to make your morning bright.

For a lighter lunch, our chef’s recommend Chicken Basil Caesar salad, prepped with red and green leaf lettuce for flavor and nutrients. The basil makes its debut in the classic Caesar dressing with a twist.

Ready to cozy up to some comfort food for dinner? Our stuffed bell peppers recipe swaps in cauliflower rice for a lighter meal that still delivers flavor.

Chef Favorites

Zest up your dinner. Literally! This honey glazed salmon with orange and ginger calls for zest- and juice!- from a full orange. Ginger packs an anti-inflammatory punch while honey mellows the flavors.

For a Mediterranean side that can be enjoyed with most any main, the simplicity of this cucumber tomato salad is not to be underestimated.
