Packed with plant-based protein, vibrant crunch, and a zesty lime dressing, this Southwest Quinoa Salad is the ultimate easy meal-prep recipe for busy weekdays.

Prep time: 15 mins | Cook time: 15 mins | Servings:4–6

**Ingredients**

Base: 1 cup uncooked quinoa (rinsed), 2 cups water or vegetable broth, 1 tsp salt

Veggies & Beans: 1 can (15 oz) black beans (drained and rinsed), 1 cup sweet corn (fresh, canned, or thawed), 1 red bell pepper (diced), 1/2 red onion (finely diced), 1 cup cherry tomatoes (halved), 1 avocado (diced)

Herbs: 1/2 cup fresh cilantro (chopped)

Dressing: 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil, juice of 2 fresh limes, 1 tsp ground cumin, 1/2 tsp chili powder, 1/2 tsp garlic powder, salt and fresh black pepper to taste

**Instructions**

1. **Cook the Quinoa:** Combine rinsed quinoa, water/broth, and salt in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, then cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let sit covered for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork and let cool completely.
2. **Make the Dressing:** Whisk together olive oil, lime juice, cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a small bowl until blended.
3. **Assemble:** In a large bowl, combine cooled quinoa, black beans, corn, red bell pepper, red onion, cherry tomatoes, and cilantro.
4. **Toss & Serve:** Pour the dressing over the salad and toss well to coat. Gently fold in the diced avocado just before serving.

**Meal Prep Pro-Tips**
* **Avocado Storage:** If prepping for the whole week, keep the avocado separate and slice it right before eating to prevent browning.

* **Flavor Boost:** Let the assembled salad chill in the fridge for 30 minutes before serving so the quinoa absorbs the lime dressing. Keeps well stored in airtight containers for up to 4 days.

Indulge in these delightful Apple Pie Bars, a perfect blend of sweet and tart, making for a cozy dessert treat! 🍏🥧💖

Ingredients:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups peeled and sliced apples
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch

2. In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, softened butter, and salt. Mix until the mixture becomes nice and crumbly.
3. Take half of this crumbly mixture and press it firmly into the bottom of your prepared pan; this will be the delicious base of our bars.
4. In another bowl, stir together the sliced apples, cinnamon, lemon juice, cornstarch, and vanilla extract until the apples are well coated.
5. Pour the apple mixture over the crust, spreading it evenly.
6. Sprinkle the remaining flour mixture generously over the apples, creating a nice crumble topping.
7. Bake in your preheated oven for about 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden and the apples are bubbling.
8. Allow your bars to cool completely before slicing them into squares. Enjoy every bite!

Tender, buttery crumb meets a literal river of sweet-tart raspberry jam, all topped with a silky vanilla glaze. It’s vibrant, beautiful, and surprisingly easy to whip up. SAVE THIS POST! You WILL want it later. 👇

(Ingredients for a 9x5 inch loaf pan)
The Batter:

1 ½ cups (190g) All-purpose flour
1 tsp Baking powder
¼ tsp Salt
¾ cup (170g) Unsalted butter, softened
1 cup (200g) Granulated sugar
2 large Eggs, room temp
1 tsp Vanilla extract
½ cup (120ml) Milk, room temp
⅓ cup good quality Raspberry Jam
The Glaze:

¾ cup (90g) Powdered sugar
2-3 tbsp Heavy cream (or milk)
½ tsp Vanilla
Instructions:

Prep: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line your 9x5 pan with parchment paper.
Cream: Cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy (3-4 mins). Beat in eggs, one at a time, then add the vanilla.
Dry/Wet: Whisk flour, baking powder, and salt. Alternate adding flour mixture and milk to the butter, beginning and ending with flour. Do not overmix!
The Technique: Pour half of the batter into the prepared pan. Dollop your raspberry jam down the center. Use a small knife or skewer to gently swirl the jam into the batter. Top with the remaining batter, smoothing the top.
Bake: Bake for 55-65 mins, or until a skewer inserted into the cake part comes out clean (avoid the jam swirl, or it won't test dry!). Let cool in the pan for 10 mins, then transfer to a wire rack.
Glaze: Whisk all glaze ingredients together. Drizzle generously over the cooled cake. Slice and enjoy!
