Who says you should skip dessert? This truffle recipe has so many superfoods, it's hard to count: Goji berries (used in ancient Chinese medicine), cocoa (avoid anything called "Dutch" or "alkalized" — the processing destroys the antioxidants), hemp seeds (rich in fatty acids and nutrients), chia seeds (high protein, low-cal), and heart-healthy walnuts. Recipe here.

7. Grill-able Bean Artichoke Spinach Cauliflower Burger

11. Artichoke Spinach Pizza with White Beans

12. Grapefruit Roasted Beets, Greens and White Beans with Pistachio Butter
