Tomorrow is Mardi Gras!
Louisiana is known for their Mardi Gras celebrations. Not known for the healthy eating, we thought we’d we’d ask: what does a healthy Mardi Gras look like? Thankfully there are a lot of great recipes out there, and even better? One of our favorite chef/bloggers (Susan from Fat Free Vegan) happens to be from Louisiana, and she knows how to make some great Louisiana dishes!
So why not celebrate Mardi Gras in a healthier way? Enjoy some of these great Mardi Gras inspired recipes!

Susan is just the best!
Susan’s recipe for Red Beans and Rice is BOMB. Made it lately with collards. Highly recommended.
