You know fall is coming…the air is getting a bit chillier, the colors are getting warmer and rosier everywhere you look, and classic treats like those involving salted caramel are everywhere… Well, we’ve got our own version of that! These bars are cute and delightful…but they’re so rich and delicious […]

After a recent visit to Sun Cafe, I was inspired by a dish they make there called “sun nachos”. Sun nachos are completely raw vegan nachos made using raw jicama slices as chips, and the toppings range from nut-based sauces to veggies and guacamole. They’re delicious, and you can top […]
I’m a fan of fermented foods–kombucha, kimchi, pickles, etc. have been in man’s diet for thousands of years, and these days, scientists are starting to learn why those types of food are actually *really* helpful to the digestive system. Your digestive system, particularly your intestines, require certain “good bacteria” to […]
Banana ice cream has got to be my single favorite thing to do with the seemingly millions of bananas I tend to acquire. For example, yesterday, I filled an entire reusable shopping bag with them since the grocery store was selling the “overripe” ones at half price. “Overripe” bananas are […]
Cashews are kind of like “vegan dairy”. When you need something creamy, whether it’s a sauce, cheesecake-like texture, cheese-like flavor, etc, there’s probably a delicious way to do it with cashews. Never had a cheesecake made of nuts? Today is your lucky day 🙂 This is for anyone who wants […]
This raw vegan granola is fruity and nutty, carrying through the full flavors because they’re kept in the raw. This recipe is both raw & vegan, and although I have seen some super complicated raw granola recipes, this is NOT one of them. You’ll find that this recipe is super […]
This delicious, creamy raw salad dressing goes on pretty much example, so we’re going to show you how to make it plus show some juicy pictures of our favorite examples! There is beauty in simplicity, which unfortunately means it’s easy to miss, too, but we’re here to help you appreciate […]
This recipe was inspired by the idea of chocolate-covered fruit…eg strawberries and raspberries dipped in chocolate, chocolate-covered raisins, bananas with chocolate sauce etc. This time, though, the chocolate really does cover the fruit, by sitting on top of it. Raw and vegan, this textured chocolate matches the moistness of the […]
The flavors of traditional pasta are great, sometimes, something on the lighter side is sure to please! The flavors of ripe tomatoes and basil mix together perfectly in this creamy, full-bodied sauce.  The pine nuts are more than just a decoration here and finish the dish with a distinct accent. If […]
New to juicing and not sure where to start? One of the most popular fresh, raw juice drinks I’ve seen in juice bars is carrot ginger juice. It’s super easy to make at home, and even better, the ingredients to make it are really cheap. I tend to drink a […]
I’ve always loved applesauce, from childhood onward, and I still love applesauce–only now, I make it a bit differently. Sparing the stovetop in this unique applesauce recipe make it not only retain more vitamin C and fiber but also gives it a fresh flavor that mostly gets lost when making […]
I loved the flavor of Creamsicles® as a kid…the orangy vanilla-ey taste got me every time. Now that I’m a bit older and a LOT healthier….well, I don’t eat those anymore. I still miss the flavor, so what to do… Here’s an easy recipe that will take you back to […]
