I’m talking to Amie Valpone, the creator of amazing whole food recipes on her site The Healthy Apple, about what inspires her when she’s coming up with a new dish, how to work with the natural flavors of healthy whole plant foods, and some of her favorite flavor combinations.

Key Points
- Make sure you get healthy forms of carbohydrates, fats and lots of vegetables. Your body carbohydrates and fats to be healthy, and to lose weight, so don’t be afraid of them – just get them from clean whole foods.
- Choose fresh ingredients for the best flavor in whole food recipes – go to farmer’s markets or get a produce-delivery box service – and use them in season for the best flavors.
- Play with different flavor combinations that you enjoy, like sweet with savory. Fresh herbs (basil, mint, etc) and spices (cinnamon, chili powder) add lots of flavor. And try making your favorite foods in different ways, pairing them with other foods and seasonings to make totally different dishes.
