‘Tis definitely the season for comforting, hot lattes, cappuccinos, lattes and more, but so many coffee-shop favorites make the naughty list, filled with unnecessary calories and sugar. While I might partake in such an indulgence every now and then, a healthy chai latte or is what I’d make to drink at home.

This makeover chai latte recipe is easy to make, requiring just a few simple ingredients – a chai tea bag, a zero-carb sweetener, spices, oatmilk, and – surprise, collagen powder.

I use a couple tablespoons of unflavored collagen powder from Great Lakes Wellness –it dissolves amazingly and with no clumps in hot liquids. In addition to the many benefits of collagen, I love that it adds protein to my day.

A “Grande” (16-oz) serving of my healthy gingerbread chai latte has just 153 calories, only 4g sugars and 14g protein – while the popular coffee shop version has 310 calories and a whopping 54g sugar and only 2g protein per.  

TIPS FOR MAKING GINGERBREAD CHAI OATMILK LATTE

Mug: Make sure you mug is large enough to hold all the liquids – air in the frothed almond milk gives it more volume, so to be safe and prevent overflows, I’d go with a 20-ounce mug.

Tea: Brew the chai tea of your choice, there are many varieties with varying flavor profiles, use your favorite loose or tea sachet.  I used a Vanilla Chai tea bag from Aplenty (an Amazon brand, it tasted great and was priced very economically). Also, steep the tea in just 4 ounces of boiling water, no more. It should be concentrated so that it flows into the steamed and frothed milk.

Milk: While this particular healthy chai latte recipe calls for oat milk, it’s fine to swap out for what you have in the fridge or what works best for your dietary needs. When it comes to alternative milks, I feel like oat milk froths up thicker and creamier than almond milk – I use the Barista Blend by Good Karma , it’s also shelf stable, so I can always have a new carton waiting in my pantry.

To Froth or Not: A true latte has a shot of espresso (I’m using chai tea here), a layer of steamed milk, and a layer of frothed milk. Do this if you want to make a chai latte like Starbucks. I use Pitcher-style Milk Frother & Steamer, but a little hand-held frother works too. However, if you do not have these coffee tools available, simply heat milk in the microwave until hot – the latte won’t have froth on top, but will still taste amazing.

Sweetener: I avoid having added sugar in my beverages, whether hot or cold. Obviously, real milk has some sugar in the form of lactose and oat milk has maltose – I’m okay with that. What I don’t want is added sugar to make it taste sweet. Instead, I’ll use a zero or lower carb alternative like monk fruit or stevia. Better Stevia (liquid drops) from NOW is my favorite hot beverage sweetener, they even have a “chai” flavor which is what I used in lieu of additional spices.  Honey, agave or maple syrup would work too, but will change the nutritional content. When it comes to sweeteners, I’m always like, “You do you!”

Festive Pomegranate Orange Quinoa Salad – Hassle-free & Healthy Holiday Side

Deck your plate for the holidays with this festive quinoa salad featuring pomegranate and orange. it’s a beautiful, healthy, delicious recipe elegant enough for the season’s celebrations and simple enough for a simple weeknight dinner.

A simple creamy dressing made with a vinaigrette base along with Greek yogurt and date syrup adds even more flavor to this simple holiday quinoa salad that comes together with just a handful of healthy ingredients.

 

This pomegranate orange quinoa recipes makes 4 servings, each with 146 calories, 26g carbs, 3.1g fat and 4.8g protein.

 I pair this cold quinoa salad with a quality protein to make sure I’m hitting my 25-30g per meal goal. Tonight, I made cod that was simply seasoned and air-fried.

TIPS FOR FESTIVE QUINOA SALAD:

Quinoa: You can use any color quinoa (eg: white, red, black, mixed). Also, consider batch-cooking quinoa and keeping in the freezer in 1-cup portions. This makes creating quick recipes with this healthy whole grain (really a seed), even easier – you can read my quinoa prep post HERE.

Pomegranate & Oranges: Use fresh or pre-packaged, it really only comes down to your preference and time to prep. If using either from a jar, tub, or can, choose “no sugar added” and drain off the juice so the quinoa isn’t soggy later. However, do reserve about 1 tablespoon of pomegranate juice for the dressing (or if fresh, drain it from the bowl after getting the arils out).

Dressing: This recipe makes just enough for the salad, and I prefer underdressed salads. If you think it needs more, double the dressing recipe and pour it on a little at a time – going by taste. Also, if you’d like to turn this from a vegetarian quinoa recipe into a vegan quinoa recipe, then use a substitute for the Greek yogurt, such as a plant-based yogurt, tahini or a natural nut butter.

Optional Ideas: You can swap out the pistachios for a chopped nut of choice like almonds, pecans – or none at all. Also, I love to sprinkle mine with feta cheese for a salty contrast with the sweet.

Make Ahead & Storing: This recipe will get a little soggy if you make the day before. To save time, it’s best to prep the ingredients (cook quinoa, chop spinach, peel/seed fruit, etc) the day before. Then simply toss everything together and shake up the dressing – it will literally just take 2 minutes! You can store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days. Still tastes yummy, but the crunch of the nuts and crisp of the spinach will be gone.

This is one of my favorite creative quinoa salad ideas – for it’s flavor, fast-fixing, and festive appearance! Enjoy!

Sugar-Free Strawberry Protein Cupcakes with Vanilla Ganache Icing

I “heart” strawberries, cupcakes, licking icing out of the bowl and all sweet things. But, I also love sugar free dessert recipes and avoiding traditional sugar and adding more protein into my diet to support my active lifestyle and workout recovery. My recipe for Sugar-free Strawberry Protein Cupcakes (or “protein cakelettes” if you will!) satisfies my cravings and feels like a special gourmet treat (although so simple to make).

I love to use protein powder and alternative sweeteners to create healthier dessert options that will satisfy my sweet tooth yet not wreak havoc on my (mostly) healthy diet.

Clean Lean Protein Powder from Nuzest is my favorite! Save 15% with code FITFORK

These little cupcakes with strawberry protein powder are fun and easy to make – and enjoy in your healthy lifestyle without guilt! Each cupcake has approximately 125 calories, 8g protein, 6g fat and 5g net carb. Honestly, I’ve had a couple for breakfast today, and I’m standing by that as a smart choice!

SUGAR-FREE PROTEIN CUPCAKES & VARIATIONS

The cool thing about this protein powder cupcakes recipe is that it can be tweaked here and there to suit your preferences!

VARY the protein powder type: I used Nuzest strawberry protein powder (FITFORK is my 15% discount code). It’s a plant-based and easy to digest IMO, but you can also use a whey protein. I’m also thinking collagen powder would work too, but I haven’t tried that yet.

SAve 15% on Nuzest protein powder with code FITFORK

CHANGE the flavor: I have a fondness for recipes with strawberry protein powder, but you can also use vanilla, chocolate, birthday cake or whatever flavor you like! I used Strawberry Clean Lean Protein (plant-based) from Nuzest. Save 15% with code FITFORK.

SWAP the sweetener: I used erythritol, but any granulated sweetener that measures approximately 1-to-1 with regular table sugar will work. Look and stevia, monk fruit, xylitol, and blends. Coconut sugar will also work . . . or even traditional brown sugar or table sugar. No judgement.

LEVEL UP your baking vessel: Try a silicone cupcake mold like shown (3.5 oz. capacity), a standard muffin tin (also 3.5 oz), 4- to 5-oz ramekins, or even a 9” round cake pan.

SWITCH UP the icing: Instead of sugar-free vanilla chips, use any type of baking chip such as dark chocolate, milk chocolate, peanut butter, etc. All will work well to make a ganache-style icing.

ADD ON any type of topping: While the vanilla strawberry ganache icing is still warm, any type of small topping décor will adhere well – a different crushed dehydrated fruit options, chopped nuts, sprinkles, coconut shreds are all other yummy ideas!

Silicone molds make this protein cupcake feel fancy, but standard muffin tins or ramekins work too!

For this pumpkin breakfast casserole, I used the plain sourdough loaf in my box. Wildgrain bakers start with wild yeast to made the sourdough starter which takes days from start to finish and provides nutrients such as fiber-rich bran, proteins, probiotics, and vitamin-rich germ. The exterior of this loaf bakes up fabulously crusty and audibly crunchy while the interior is soft and tender with that old-school sourdough zip. So good! 

When making a French toast casserole, it typically usually turns out best with bread a tad on the stale side so that it better soaks up the milk-egg mixture like a sponge.

With a fresh-baked loaf, the easy work around is to cut up in bite-sized cubes and leave on the counter uncovered for a couple hours.

Check out the No-Cook Tomato Artichoke Pasta made using one of Wildgrain’s hand-cut pastas! This was a quick and simple summer-inspired dish I created but would also be great for the holiday season, to bring to a party or serve at home on one of those busy nights when everything’s happening at once.

Course: Breakfast, brunch
Keyword: entertaining, fall, holiday, make ahead
Servings: 8 servings
Ingredients
  • 1 16- ounce loaf sourdough bread I used plain sourdough loaf from Wilgrain
  • 6 large eggs
  • 2 1/4 cups whole milk
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree from can
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
CRUMB TOPPING
  • 1/3 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1/3 cup rolled oats
  • 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 6 tablespoons butter cold
  • 3/4 cup roughly chopped pecans*
  • Optional topping ideas: maple syrup caramel sauce, or powdered sugar drizzle
Instructions
  1. Cut or tear loaf into approximate 1” cubes. Stale bread soaks up the egg mixture better, so if loaf is fresh-baked, let the bread cubes sit on counter uncovered for a few hours.
  2. Spray a 10”-diameter oven-proof skillet or 9”×13” inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
  3. Add bread cubes to skillet or dish.
  4. In large bowl, whisk eggs, milk, vanilla, pumpkin, brown sugar, and pumpkin pie spice together. Pour mixture evenly over bread.
  5. Cover skillet and chill in fridge for 2 hours or more (even overnight) so that bread absorbs as much of the egg-pumpkin mixture as possible.
  6. Prepare topping by tossing brown sugar, oats, and pumpkin pie spice. Cut cold butter in little cubes and, using a fork or pastry cutter, mash around until mixture is coarsely combined and crumbly. Do not add topping until ready to bake (also keep in fridge until ready).
  7. Preheat oven to 350°F.
  8. Sprinkle pecan-oat crumb topping evenly over casserole and bake uncovered for 20 minutes. Then, cover skillet with aluminum foil and bake for an additional 25 minutes or until center appears set. Total bake time is about 45 minutes.
  9. Remove from oven and let cool for 5 minutes. If desired, drizzle with a sauce such as maple syrup, caramel sauce, or a simple powdered sugar-milk drizzle.
