This is a healthy take on the no-bake cookie. So good and so good for you. Every time I make these peanut butter power bites, I am begged for the recipe. They are a hit with both kids and adults, and always disappear quickly.

Brain Food: Avocado Toast
Nothing beats classic avocado toast. Start with a silky avocado, chockfull of heart- and brain-healthy fats, and dress it with extra-virgin olive oil (or another heart/brain favorite like flaxseed oil) and a pinch of pink salt and chili pepper flakes to taste.
Flank Steak Tagliata with Salsa Verde
Tagliata is Italian for sliced steak. You’ll find it on nearly every Italian restaurant menu. But it’s easy to make at home, and a great choice for an unfussy meal. (Sometimes it’s also a good way to make one steak feed two.) Flank steak makes a great tagliata. It’s relatively inexpensive and easy to cook.
