20 Hidden Veggie Recipes That Make “Clean Eating” Amazing

Evidence Based

It’s a well-known fact that people who eat higher amounts of fruits and vegetables are, on the whole, healthier and more likely to live longer, disease-free lives than those who don’t eat enough.

It’s also a well-known fact that few people meet the government’s recommended intake of fruits and vegetables, which is six to eight fist-sized servings per day, respectively.

If you’re one of those people, these recipes are for you.

Forget bland, boring veggies and say hello to delicious morsels like cheesy Cauliflower Biscuits, made with cauliflower instead of regular flour (they’re like large cheesy tater tots, with only 50 calories each!).

Or try a Half-Veggie Burger, which mixes lentils and vegetables with ground beef to satisfy your craving for a juicy burger while getting closer to your veggie quota.

Enjoy!

Oven-Roasted Chili with Hidden Vegetables

hidden vegetable chili recipe Picture courtesy of The Cook’s Pyjamas

Making a good chili has more to do with the seasonings than the ingredients.

There’s definitely a lot of debate around what a chili should or shouldn’t have in it, but if you’re already going to start with beef, beans, and onion, why not put some more produce in the pot?

This chili recipe has a total of five vegetables mixed in, but you can start with just a couple like carrots and zucchini if that’s less intimidating.

Serves 8

Ingredients

2 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil

2 onions, chopped

3 cloves garlic, crushed

2 tsp. ground cumin

1 tsp. ground coriander seeds

1 tsp. dried oregano

1 tsp. chipotle chili powder (or more to taste)

1 lb. lean ground beef

1 small eggplant, finely chopped

2 medium carrots, grated

1 large zucchini (about 1 cup), grated

1 large red bell pepper, finely chopped

1 cup dry pinto beans, soaked overnight and rinsed

1 quart (32 oz.) beef stock

1 can (13.5 oz.) crushed tomatoes

1 can (5 oz.) tomato paste

Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Moroccan Shepherd’s Pie with Sweet Potato

hidden vegetable Shepherds Pie recipe Picture courtesy of Our Four Forks

Not only does this meat and potatoes dish get a nutritious upgrade with sweet potatoes, but it’s also hiding chickpeas in the beef. Or for a vegan version, just add a second can of chickpeas.

If you prefer, use more veggies instead. Bell peppers can be diced up and cooked at the same time as the onions, and they’ll boost the vitamin C.

Serves 4

Ingredients

Filling:

1 lb. grass-fed ground beef (or lamb)

1 can (15 oz.) chickpeas

1 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil

1 white onion, chopped

1 red onion, chopped

2 cloves garlic, chopped

1 Tbsp. grated fresh ginger

1 tsp. salt

1 tsp. ground cumin

1 tsp. ground cinnamon

1 tsp. chili powder

1 tsp. pure honey (optional)

2 cups chopped plum tomatoes

1/2 cup vegetable stock

Salt to taste

1/2 cup currants (or raisins)

1/2 bunch fresh cilantro, stems removed, chopped

Smoky Cauliflower Mac & Cheese

vegetable mac and cheese recipe Picture courtesy of Cookies and Cups

When you’re going low-carb for a few weeks, there are some comfort foods that are impossible not to miss. Mac and cheese is definitely one of them.

Luckily you can actually replace the pasta with cauliflower, and it winds up with a similar color and texture– smothered in cheese, of course.

If you don’t like gouda, pick another variety like gruyere, Parmesan, or fontina.

Serves 8

Ingredients

2 heads cauliflower, cut into florets

3 Tbsp. butter

1/4 cup flour

3/4 tsp. seasoned salt

1 tsp. smoked paprika

2 1/2 cups whole milk

2 cups (8 oz.) grated smoked gouda

Crock Pot Sloppy Joes

hidden vegetable sloppy joes recipe Yummy Healthy Easy

In Sloppy Joe mix, everything is blended together and covered in delicious sauce, so it’s not hard to sneak in veggies.

Carrots add vitamin A, and mushrooms have two kinds of vitamin B. Adding mushrooms also means you can use a lean meat like ground turkey while still getting the richness of beef.

That’s because mushrooms provide umami, which is the savory flavor quality named after the Japanese word for “delicious.”

Serves 8

Ingredients

3 cloves garlic

2 carrots

1 container (10 oz.) button mushrooms

1 onion, peeled

1 1/4 lb. lean ground turkey

1 1/2 cups ketchup

Carrot & Cheddar Stars

If you don’t find carrot sticks appealing, shred them to form the base of a dough. But rather than turning the veggie into a cake, you can make cheddar cheese crackers.

This gluten-free alternative to regular crackers is a smart place to hide veggies because nobody will suspect it. Since carrots and cheddar have a similar color, these orange crackers just look really cheesy and appetizing.

Serves 14

Cauliflower Biscuits

vegetable biscuits recipe Picture courtesy of iFoodReal

Who doesn’t love a tender biscuit with cheese? Unfortunately, one cheese biscuit – like those addictive ones at Red Lobster – can have 150 calories apiece. And you know it’s hard to stop at one.

These satisfy the craving but with an unbelievable 50 calories each. Since they’re made from cauliflower, they won’t have the same texture as biscuits made with flour, but they’re like giant cheesy tater tots. And that’s also delicious.

Serves 12

Ingredients

1 1/2 lbs. cauliflower, separated into florets

1 large clove garlic

2 large eggs (or 1/3 cup egg whites)

1 Tbsp. cornstarch

1/2 cup + 3 Tbsp. shredded pepper jack cheese

Cauliflower-Cheese Soup

vegetable cheese soup recipe Picture courtesy of Cook Diary

The easiest vegetable to blend into recipes is cauliflower because it’s colorless. And why not find ways to sneak it into everything when the cruciferous vegetable contributes vitamin K, vitamin C, fiber, and potassium?

Once cooked, cauliflower becomes soft and creamy, which works perfectly in a recipe like this cheese soup. Use an extra-sharp cheddar for full flavor, and if you’re craving even more cheese, serve with shaved Parmesan for an awesome garnish.

Serves 8

Ingredients

1 Tbsp. unsalted butter

1 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil

1 medium onion, chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 large head cauliflower, coarsely chopped

4 cups low-sodium chicken broth

Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Pizza Panini

If you want more protein in this sandwich, add some sliced chicken breast.

Ricotta Spinach Fritters

Tired of eating eggs for breakfast? With these ricotta fritters, you’ll get about an egg per serving without even realizing it.

What you’ll be tasting is the two kinds of cheese: ricotta and Parmesan. And if you really want to hide the spinach, you’ll need a cover-up, so add any fresh herb you like. Try a handful of basil, parsley, or oregano.

Serves 4 / Makes 12

Ingredients

2 cups part-skim ricotta

3 large eggs, lightly whisked

They’re delicious with shredded cheddar and pleasantly crispy with panko breadcrumbs, so anyone who likes fried appetizers will be tempted by the look.

Baked Vegetable Marinara

It’s hard to resist a homemade baked pasta dish – even when it doesn’t actually have pasta in it. That’s the secret behind this vegetable dish, which uses spaghetti squash instead of real noodles.

The sauce is also hiding broccoli and zucchini. Once you start to dig in, the veggies will be visible, but this baked marinara smells so good coming out of the oven that picky eaters will still give it a fair try.

Serves 4

Ingredients

1 spaghetti squash (about 3 lb.)

1 Tbsp. coconut oil

1/2 yellow onion, chopped

Half-Veggie Burgers (with Beef!)

Not everyone can get behind veggie burgers, and that’s understandable when you’re craving juicy beef. However, you can have the best of both with this recipe, which mixes lentils and veggies with ground meat.

These burgers are also adaptable, so if you prefer another legume like black beans, swap out the lentils. Same goes if you have veggies to use up other than bell peppers.

Serves 8

Bacon & Brussels Sprouts Potato Noodle Casserole

Clearly there’s something leafy and green in this potato casserole, but nobody will guess what it is.

It can be hard to sneak Brussels sprouts into a healthy dish. Yet if you chop them up small enough, it’s possible to pass them off as herbs or spinach.

Aside from that, this has potatoes turned into noodles, which is fun enough to eat that nobody will care what the green stuff is. And of course there’s a generous amount of cheese and bacon to make everybody happy.

Serves 4

Ingredients

8 Brussels sprouts, thinly sliced

4 strips bacon

2 cloves garlic, minced

Spiced Pilau Rice with Beets

Beets can be difficult to hide because of their bright red color. But in this dish, there are any number of other plausible ways the rice turned out red, like tomatoes or red chili.

Of course, the other aspect of beets that’s hard to get around is the earthy flavor that some find bitter. To handle that, this quick fried rice is made with lots of Indian spices like fennel, coriander, cardamom, and mustard seeds – plus a garnish of cashews.

Serves 4

Ingredients

2 Tbsp. coconut oil

1/4 tsp. fennel seeds

1/4 tsp. coriander seeds

1/4 tsp. mustard seeds

1/4 tsp. ground cinnamon

4 cardamom pods

1 cup basmati rice

Peanut Butter Zucchini Protein Muffins

Zucchini is a great way to reduce the amount of flour – and therefore carbs – in a muffin. But not everyone wants to see vegetables in their breakfast pastry.

When you bake with zucchini, it doesn’t need to be peeled when you want convenience. But if you prefer to hide the veggies completely, remove the skin so there’s no telltale green, and finely shred the zucchini so the pieces more easily blend in.

Serves 20

Ingredients

Zucchini Muffins:

1 medium zucchini (about 1 cup), grated and drained

1/4 cup peanut butter

1 1/2 scoops peanut butter protein powder

2 Tbsp. coconut flour

1 large egg

1 egg white

1 Tbsp. pure maple syrup

Healthy Meatloaf with Vegetables

hidden vegetaable meatloaf recipe Picture courtesy of Clean Cuisine

This meatloaf will satisfy everyone, including kids and picky adults.

It’s made from juicy ground beef, and rather than using breadcrumbs, has whole oats for complex carbs. Then the trick is to finely dice carrots, onion, celery, mushrooms, and bell peppers to hide them inside.

And instead of ketchup on top, use marinara which can be a way to add another vegetable or two.

Serves 12

Ingredients

4 tsp. extra-virgin olive oil

3 cups chopped cremini mushrooms

1 Spanish onion, chopped

6 carrots, chopped

4 stalks celery, chopped

Vegetable Meatballs

Serve these with your favorite sauce or dip, such as marinara or hummus. Or, try them wiith spinach-basil pesto for a taste of how customers enjoy these lentil meatballs at The Meatball Shop in NYC.

Chicken & Veggie Nuggets

Most chicken nuggets are made from questionable meat and who knows what else.

Rather than consuming mystery meat, make your own freezer-ready chicken nuggets. That way you can pick the quality of chicken you’d rather be eating.

If you have a meat grinder at home, you can even start with lean chicken breast, mix in the grated carrot, and finish with a coat of panko bread crumbs.

Serves 8

Ingredients

2 lbs. ground chicken

1 jumbo egg

1 1/2 cups finely grated carrot

Tortellini Casserole with Hidden Veggies

Broccoli can be hard to hide because when people don’t like it, it’s more than a mild dislike. So even if you puree it to get rid of the tell-tale shape, the flavor of broccoli is hard to mask.

In this tortellini dinner, there’s enough other stuff going on to put it in between the layers of cheese-stuffed pasta, sauce, and cheese. You can also use this trick to add broccoli to a lasagna; it breaks into smaller pieces than spinach.

Serves 8

Ingredients

1 large bag (20 oz.) frozen cheese tortellini

1 jar (24 oz.) spaghetti sauce

1/2 cup (2 oz.) shredded mozzarella

1/4 cup (1 oz.) grated Parmesan

No doubt gooey, melty cheese is one of the best ways to hide vegetables. So if you’re not sure how to integrate veggies into your meal plan, think about what your favorite foods are that are based on cheese.

The inside has beans, spinach, and avocado. But before you heat up the skillet, take a few minutes to dice fresh tomatoes for an easy homemade salsa.

1/4 cup chopped red onion

1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped

1 tsp. fresh lime juice

Security Check

Some popular pre-workouts are all-natural. Some contain the right mix of high-quality ingredients. Some provide clinically effective doses. But only Pulse checks each of these boxes.

Pulse doesn’t just “contain natural ingredients''—every ingredient is naturally sourced from plants and animals. Pulse contains no artificial or synthetic substances of any kind.

Every serving of Pulse contains 15.1 grams of active ingredients that have been shown to be safe and effective in peer-reviewed scientific research.

Every active ingredient in Pulse is backed by published scientific studies that show benefits in healthy humans.

Pulse contains no harsh stimulants that wind you up and burn you out. Instead, it contains a 1:1 ratio of caffeine and L-theanine, which produces a smooth energy rush and comfortable comedown.

We carefully examined 508 pages of scientific research to find out exactly what should and shouldn’t be in a pre-workout supplement.

Every bottle of Pulse is guaranteed to provide exactly what the label claims and nothing else—no heavy metals, microbes, allergens, or other contaminants.

While these types of chemicals may not be as dangerous as some people claim, studies suggest that regular consumption of them may indeed be harmful to our health. And that’s why we don’t put any of them into our products.

Before you buy a sports supplement, you should know that it's clean, safe, and transparent. And that's exactly what Labdoor's third-party testing and certification means.

It's hard to know for sure, but this probably makes Pulse the most-popular all-natural pre-workout supplement in the world.

If you don’t absolutely love this product, just let us know, and we’ll give you a full refund on the spot. No forms or return necessary.
