I can’t decide which I love more, the Chocolate-Chocolate Chip or the Cookie Dough bites (leaning towards the chocolate) so here are recipes for both! I love portion controlled snacks made from whole foods that are easy to pop into a lunch box – or my mouth. These snack bites are made from beans and […]
It all started early in the morning, frustrated at the state of my refrigerator, I began organizing to make sense of all the unfinished meals and produce coming to their final days. It wasn’t until I made my way to the back of the top shelf that I found a forgotten bowl of soaking almonds […]
Summer isn’t complete without a tart glass of lemonade to cool you down. But I wouldn’t be me if I wasn’t trying to sneak in veggies every chance I get. You won’t even notice the kale flavor but your body will appreciate the nutrients.
Is it ever really summer without lemonade? Or cherries for that matter? Truth be told, I hardly ever have lemonade anymore because I am too busy trying to get in my gallon of water a day or drinking a morning smoothie. I really try to watch my sugar intake because it makes me feel so […]
Sunday’s family breakfast sundaes – chocolate nicecream with whipped topping, chocolate sauce, salted caramel sauce, chopped nuts, shredded coconut, and a cherry on top. Everything was made from nothing but fruit and nuts, and refined sugar-free. A touch of maple syrup in the chocolate sauce is as nefarious as it got and no animals were […]
We’ve been hooked since my first batch of veganized fudge pops but I just don’t like the way refined sugar effects me and the thought of giving it to my son with any regularity, just doesn’t sit right. I want to indulge but not hate myself afterwards and I like having treats in the house […]
Tofu, man. My relationship with the stuff has done a 180 over the years. It was one of those things that during my pre-vegan days, I just couldn’t stomach the texture, even if it was crispy fried or small unnoticeable bits in something like Pad Thai. I think a good portion of that was due […]
You’ll quickly notice a theme with my smoothies, and that they are all remakes of really decadent desserts. I have a sweet tooth that just won’t quit so I found a loophole to satisfy those cravings without feeling terrible immediately afterwards, both physically and mentally. I find this one reminds me of brownie batter right […]
As an avid chocolate lover, I was surprised to learn that Key Lime pie quickly became my new favorite dessert after the first bite. I remember that moment well, it was during a vacation with my then boyfriend turned husband in the Florida Keys. I know, so cliche but it was because of that cliche […]
My love for caramel apples knows no bounds so of course I’ll come up with the breakfast-friendly version! Made with nothing but fruit and seeds for protein, and topped with nuts for a little healthy fat, it’s worthy of both breakfast and dessert title.
