Warm weather just calls for meals like this! Very quick to put together and so fresh and crunchy. I feel like this will become a stable recipe for the spring/summer!…I actually wish I had some right now. :[ These would probably be good baked in the oven too! Must try that sometime...with vegan cheese on [...]
I haven’t made any raw recipes aka raw desserts (!!) for a long time. I had purchased some maca and mesquite powder a few months ago and hadn’t really dove into them, so I chose mesquite and made what are probably some of the yummiest raw chocolates I have made yet! Not to say I [...]
I was thinking that my dinner last night was too simple to post on here, but sometimes simple and clean and healthy is the best way to go. I also know that some people are just looking for something straight forward that is really good for them. While the wild rice does take around 45 [...]
This recipe is an add-on from the pumpkin pudding recipe. I wasn’t planning on doing this, but just sort of winged it… seemed like a good idea. It was delicious. I figured one couldn’t really go wrong with frozen banana, pumpkin and chocolate. This is a little finicky if you don’t have a super great [...]
I don’t know about you, but I have had a lot of unfortunate vegan pancake experiences in the past. So many wasted batches due to them sticking like crazy to the pan, falling apart, not cooking on the inside properly but burning on the outside. Ughhh! However, I have been tinkering with different variations of the following [...]

This is what I call a simple, yet perfect recipe. It’s really quick to whip up. Chickpea flour + water for the crust, spread on some tomato sauce and throw on some veggies and vegan cheese and you have a lovely little 1-2 serving pizza. Print Serves: 1-2 Ingredients 1 cup chickpea/besan flour 1 [...]

My new favourite pancake to make a bunch of and freeze so I am not caught out without a healthy breakfast! I have been eating 2 with either a banana, chopped plum, sliced strawberries or a pile of blueberries. I also either spread a small amount of Earth Balance, no sugar added strawberry jam or [...]

Here is a rich and decadent dessert to not feel guilty about. Only about 200 calories (or less). You can omit the spring roll wrapper, the peanut butter, the berries…mix it up! It is divine with a small bit of dark chocolate too. Peanut butter & banana just goes together so well, doesn’t it? There [...]

Are you a fan of pumpkin and sour cream? I had made a mac and cheesey type sauce with some canned pumpkin and had a little bit left over, so I decided to make some vegan sour cream and try adding the left over pumpkin to it, and it is very tasty! Great for dipping [...]

I had picked up some GoBio Chocolate pudding the other day and have been craving it again, but it usually costs around $1.99-$2.99 and the store that carries it is quite out of the way. I looked at the ingredients and there are only a few simple ingredients. It was pretty much corn starch, cocoa [...]

I’ve been really into chickpea flour lately. I’ve been using it in a ton of recipes… in the last couple of weeks i’ve make “cheesy” crackers with chickpea flour, sweet pancakes, these savoury pancakes, grilled veggie cheese on chickpea bread, chickpea flour crust for pizzas, eggy-esque bread… I love the taste, ahhh! Anyway, these are [...]

After spending a few weeks at my parents’ house, I now am back to living on my own and have run into the problem several times where I suddenly think, “I want to bake some yummy things!!” I end up making way too many, so they end up either going stale, or I end up eating too many. [...]

I love making single serving vegan treats. For one, I live alone and don’t want things to go bad before I eat them, and also, I don’t want to be tempted to eat too many, haha. If you are trying to stick to a healthy diet (diet as in permanent lifestyle), then these can be [...]

Bikram Yoga has only been in my life for a few months, but it has already done so much for me. I can’t picture my life without it (nor would I want to!). I have currently done 57 classes at the time of writing this. 10 this past summer and 47 since joining the wonderful [...]

So, this is not a very original recipe post, but I thought it would be worth sharing in case one hasn’t come across the frozen banana ice cream/sorbet recipes that are floating around the internet. I have been sick for a few days, and was tempted to get some of the tofutti ice cream at [...]
