If there’s one thing our plant-based family loves, it’s HUMMUS. We go through mountains of hummus in our household, so I always make it myself to ensure that it contains organic, high quality ingredients (store-bought hummus often contains GMO canola or other unhealthy oils). A while back I started adding fresh rosemary to our hummus…

Raw Vegan Chocolate Mint Brownie Bites
Who doesn’t love mint and chocolate together? These no-bake brownie bites are a delicious spin on the raw vegan brownies I’ve been making for years. For the mint flavour, I added a couple of drops of doTERRA peppermint oil for a decadent treat with all the benefits of this invigorating plant essence (peppermint reduces gas,…
Raw Vegan Fudge Recipe
Dearest friends, I have very exciting news… FUDGE CAN BE HEALTHY!!! OK, well maybe not “healthy” per se, but definitely healthier than that crap made with stale chocolate chips, yucky condensed milk and butter made from the milk of sullen cows that have never seen the light of day. I revived this recipe a couple…
Vegan Grilled Cheese Recipe
Darryl’s been making a lot of grilled cheeses lately… which is driving me bonkers because before I cut out dairy from my diet, I used to LOVE a good grilled cheese. I’ve tried everything to satiate this grilled cheese craving. I made one with a vegan cheese substitute, but it didn’t taste the same. It…
How to Make Kale Chips
Kale chips are a raw vegan’s potato chip. Only, unlike potato chips, kale chips are actually GOOD for you. They are full of anti-oxidants, fiber, omega-3 fatty acids, and cancer-preventing phytonutrients! Kale chips are a true spiritual superhero’s superfood. Which is why I eat kale chips all the time. Not a day goes by where…

Raw Vegan Date Square Recipe
This morning I had a craving for a traditional date square, just like mom used to make! Not wanting to break my raw vegan momentum, I put my chef’s hat on and “un-cooked” up this raw version. I ate them for breakfast with a tall glass of almond milk. Enjoy! Raw Vegan Date Squares Crust:…
Raw Coconut Cream Pie Recipe
My very favorite food on the raw food diet right now is the young coconut. Young coconuts are nothing like the hard, brown coconuts in your grocery store; instead the husk is white, the inside is tender, and they are full to the brim with energizing coconut water. Drinking coconut water first thing in the…
