you gotta have it:

a thin layer of canned sweet
potato puree and drizzle with
balsamic vinegar.

yogurt to make deviled eggs.
Fold a handful of finely chopped
watercress and a pinch of Old
Bay Seasoning into the yolks.
87 Stuffed Figs: Split plump dried figs and stuff with
toasted hazelnuts. Who says
health food can’t taste decadent?
88 Halve a cup of cherry tomatoes and drizzle
them with olive oil. It’s that
simple.

onto whole grain crackers.
90 Kiwi Stacks: Crown kiwi slices with dollops of
honey-sweetened sour cream
and scatter chopped pistachios
on top.

coconut oil and curry powder;
roast at 400° until golden.
