We love going to the Asian grocery store to pick out fruit. There are just so many types of fruit that we can only find there…and by now, you guys know I LOVE fruit! Enter the dragon fruit smoothie: One of my obsessions at the moment is dragon fruit, or […]
We often buy salad dressings for the convenience factor, but if you are trying to avoid preservatives and cut down on your consumption of unhealthy fats, (most vegetables oils,) making your own dressing is the way to go. It’s really easy, is fairly quick to make, and it stores for […]
These are not your normal, everyday sort of peanut butter cookies. These are packed with the maximum amount of peanut butter that a cookie can still hold, and on top of that, these soft, moist ball-shape cookies melt in your mouth and are amazing fresh out of the oven or […]
It’s pumpkin season! What better way to celebrate than by baking up a delicious vegan and gluten-free pumpkin chai pie?

It holds form when you pick up a slice of pizza–just like the traditional kind–yet this one is gluten-free, oil-free, without refined flour, comprised of whole foods, and higher in protein, […]
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 […]
Somehow, I didn’t discover eggplant until about high school. Ever since then, I have tried eggplant in just about every way imaginable. This recipe for Thai basil eggplant is part of my efforts to explore more Asian food, and it features the uniquely striking flavors of Thai basil. There are […]
