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 one of the best salads I’ve ever had. It’s so healthy and filling and great as a side-salad, as well as a main meal. Kale is so good for you, and doesn’t need to be cooked in order to taste good. The key to this salad is the way you break down the [...]

Chickpeas are so versatile. It’s amazing what you can do with them. You can toss them in salads, in stir-frys, make them into flour, add them to soups, make sandwich spreads… and make them into delicious chickpea fritters/patties! How to make this chickpea recipe: Ingredients * 1 Can Chickpeas * 2 Garlic Cloves, minced * [...]

I didn’t have any bananas to make my morning oatmeal, so I made some yummy pancakes full of a mix of fresh and frozen berries. I really winged the ingredients until I got a good consistency with the batter. So no concrete measurements with this one. You just want it to have medium-thickness and not [...]

Lately, I’ve been making a microwave apple bread pudding, but the apples in the house were mushy and pretty tasteless, and we had two really ripe bananas that had to be eaten, so I decided to try out a banana bread pudding. It’s really good! Tastes good warm or cold. I prefer it slightly warm. [...]

Thought I would diverge a little and add a healthy no-meat homemade dog treat for everyone with a furry dog friend(s) in their life. This is my first time making dog treats, and I’m really happy that they turned out. The real question was whether or not Marley (my Belgian Shepherd) would like them or [...]

A couple of people had shown interest in the recent granola bar recipes, but requested some gluten-free versions. Now, these are obviously not granola bars, but are pretty much the same ingredients you could make into bars that would be raw and gluten-free. These lovely little truffles are very easy to make, especially if you [...]

Very healthy and all natural Chewy Chocolate Granola Bars that are simple to make and a great alternative to store-bought bars!

Here is the Seed’n’Nuts Carrot Cake bar from my epic day of granola bar testing! The two others I made from that day are Peanut Butter & Banana Nut Bars and Chewy Chocolatey Bars. These carrot bars are sooo good. Out of the three flavours, these were eaten the quickest! Very fresh tasting and full [...]

I spent all day in the kitchen finally testing and improving how to make granola bars. The last time I made them was over a year ago and the video I made to accompany them needed some enhancements. I’m proud to bring new and improved (and healthier!) granola bar recipes as well as a brand [...]

Very easy and delicious version of Banana Chips. These are only made with the banana. No oil is needed. They are very chewy and delicious and can be eaten on their own, added into trail mixes, or used in granola bars. , , , , , , , , , *Note: It seems some people [...]
