Healthy Seasonal Recipes / Katie Webster
If you’re still clinging on to the holiday season, this one is for you! The taste of the baked butternut squash with a hint of spice is deliciously rich and completely vegan. If you want to turn it into something more exotic, you can increase the curry or add alternative spices, along with a can of coconut milk. RECIPE
4. Hummus Soup

And now for something completely different! We’re not going to lie – we have not tried this one, but it sounds delicious. For one, it’s hummus. If you’re going to make the toasted chickpea topping, it may be a little more time consuming, but it seems like it would be worth the wait. RECIPE

Clean Eating / Chris Hennessey / Alexa Weibel
The thyme with the arugula and ricotta topping morphs a traditional tomato soup into an Italian delight. You don’t even have to chop any tomatoes! RECIPE
Needing to eat more greens, but you can't stand the taste or texture? California based model and avid cook, Katia Coate, has a smoothie recipe that is so sweet and refreshing that you won't believe you are drinking a full day's serving of spinach.
