When it comes to cooking, Khloé Kardashian and Kris Jenner like to keep things quick, simple and healthy.
The mother-daughter duo exclusively shares their tasty lemon-basil roasted vegetables medley recipe in the latest issue of Us Weekly. “It’s so versatile and always tastes good,” Kardashian, 39, says. “It’s guaranteed to be a crowd-pleaser, especially when using fresh vegetables and Country Crock Plant Butter.”
The two-step, dairy-free recipe features easy-to-find ingredients such as zucchini, red bell peppers, red onions and tomatoes. For an elevated dish, Kardashian and Jenner, 67, note to serve the vegetables over hot cooked couscous or orzo.
The Kardashian-Jenner family are no strangers to sharing their favorite foods — both healthy and junk food — and recipes with fans. “Cooking to me is really relaxing,” Kardashian told Food & Wine magazine in June 2017. “I love to cook everything from scratch.”
However, sometimes the Good American cofounder can’t resist some good takeout, especially if it’s her favorite cheat food. “I don’t know why people do this to me, because I can’t say no,” she said in a November 2019 Instagram Story video after receiving a surprise pizza delivery.
Although she contemplated whether or not to eat a slice, Kardashian chose to go for it. “I guess I just eat it and love life,” she stated.
That same month, Kardashian’s daughter True, 5, helped the Keeping Up With the Kardashians alum bake some homemade bread. “My baby bread baker!!!” she captioned photos of True with the cinnamon raisin loaf they made. “We bake bread together a few times a week. I pray we continue this weekly tradition forever.” (Kardashian also shares her son Tatum, 14 months, with ex Tristan Thompson.)
Jenner, meanwhile, showed off her perfectly organized — and ginormous — refrigerators via Kourtney Kardashian’s Poosh website in May 2022. The In the Kitchen With Kris cookbook author had her trio of black, matte fridges fully stocked with plenty of green fruits and veggies, drinks and dairy products. Jenner even dedicated an entire fridge to ice cream and frozen sweet treats.
Earlier this year, Kourtney, 44, taught her Instagram followers how to make her sons’ favorite smoothie recipe. “I made my sons this masterpiece smoothie for any parents looking for a healthy breakfast,” she shared via her Instagram Story in April. “They give it a 9/10.” (Kourtney, who is currently pregnant with her first baby with husband Travis Barker, shares three kids Mason, 13, Penelope, 11, and Reign, 8, with ex Scott Disick.) The fruity drink contains lmond milk, strawberries, a banana, a date, ice and Barlean’s mango peach smoothie flavor omega-3.
