vegan chocolate protein shake without powder

Well hi there! I’m coming to you from a brand new website and man does that feel good to say. For the last 4 months, I’ve been working along with a talented designer (Kendra at Kay Creative– she’s the best!), to completely revamp my site. I am so proud of this site. I poured my […]

Raw Cacao Energy Balls

There’s nothing better than having a good snack available when that 3pm hungry strikes. But you don’t want to completely mess up your day, and nothing does that better than having something that makes you feel like crap. That’s why these Raw Cacao Energy Balls are so perfect. They’re sweet, chocolatey and super filling, but […]

Bubble Gum Smoothie Bowl

Read more 

Yes, a bubble gum smoothie is really a thing and it’s insanely good! I’ve made this about 4 times over this last week and I still can’t freaking believe that it’s made with dragonfruit and banana. What’s dope about that is that dragonfruit is loaded with fiber and nutrients. So you’re getting that bubble gum […]

I’m not going to get it twisted here and claim that holiday sweets aren’t delicious. Because they are. But they’re also a little heavy and a few days of holiday parties/dinners/work things can leave you feeling less than stellar. This grab and go snack-breakfast-dessert will pretty much make you feel the opposite of that. Light, healthy, […]

pb&j collard wrap

Read more 

  Peanut butter & jelly on a collard leaf? What the what?? So this combo might sound weird but is actually really freaking tasty. Along with three other awesome collard wrap recipes, the video above is all about quick and easy gluten-free vegan (mostly raw) lunch options. If you have the sauces and quinoa prepped in advance, […]

ENERGIZING RAW MANGO SMOOTHIE (VEGAN)

← Read more

  Have you ever fallen into the I-need-coffee-in-the-morning-to-function rut? If yes, me too! And that’s really not fun (and almost annoying) to be completely reliant on a stimulant to wake up. So, if you’re game, I have a challenge for you. Try this three ingredient (five minute) smoothie for breakfast for five days straight without coffee. […]

vegan protein ice cream

Read more 

  If you eat a plant-based diet, you’ve probably been asked where you get your protein from(or you’ve seen memes about it). This question can seem a little crazy to plant eaters, because protein comes in so many different plant forms. Beans, quinoa, peas, chickpeas, and leafy greens are just a few sources. If your diet is a […]

raw mint chocolate chip smoothie

  This is a rockstar drink for summer mornings. It’s refreshing, energizing, minty, and packed with healthy carbs. Feel free to pack it with as many bananas or as much fresh water as you want!

goji berry superfood smoothie

Happy Friday! Let’s talk about how good this superfood smoothie tastes for an early Friday morning breakfast. Refreshing, energizing, and filling, this baby leaves you feeling ready to take on whatever lies ahead of you for the weekend. Hopefully that includes some fun things?! Superfoods (including blueberries, kale, and acai berries) win their super title […]

HEALTHY digestion smoothie 1

← Read more

Every time I eat mango, I notice how filling it is. (I also notice how ridiculously good it is!) That satiated feeling can be attributed to fiber, which the fruit is packed with. This fiber, along with water content, helps with digestion and keeps your system running in tip top shape. Plus, mango contains a substantial amount of vitamin C (hello glowing […]

peanut butter and jelly smoothie

Read more 

I’ve been on a smoothie kick lately (see my papaya, kiwi, and blueberry muffin creations) and today’s recipe is no different. I typically like to start a weekday with a fresh smoothie full of tasty frozen fruit that will keep me carbed up throughout the morning. They’re also quick, easy, and perfectly portable. Today’s drink is a play on the […]

papaya smoothie

← Read more

Are you into papaya? I never really was just because of my lack of experience with it. The few times I tried it, I wasn’t crazy about the semi-mushy/mealy texture. Feeling experimental recently, I decided to pick one of these tropical fruits up when I saw them hanging out at Trader Joe’s. I then realized I have […]

peanut butter and jelly collard wrap 2

Read more 

  On days when I need a portable lunch option and I’m not in the mood for a smoothie (check out a smoothie roundup here), I usually pack some raw wraps. This PB&J wrap has been a favorite recently. It’s salty, sweet, and tastes delicious! You can pair them with some fruit to round out a full lunch. […]

juice pulp pancakes

← Read more

Have you tried making your own juice? I’ve shared a number of juice recipes before, but today I wanted to talk about the elephant in the juicing room- that poor, sad, fiberous pulp that is usually shoved down the garbage disposal. Leftover juice pulp contains flavor, phytochemicals, and fiber. You may be wondering what the purpose […]

Vegan-Caramel-Apples (1)

It’s almost Halloween which means it’s almost time for costumes, candy, and scary movies. I’ll pass on the scary movies but count me in for the costumes and (plant-based, date-sweetened) candy! I’ve always had a sweet tooth, but I’ve changed my diet substantially to eat gluten-free vegan. I came up with these Vegan Caramel Apples as a […]

quinoa 4 ways

← Read more

Whether you’re packing lunch for work, school, or a long day of shopping, quinoa is one of your best bets. Sometimes thought of as a grain, quinoa is actually a complete-protein seed. It contains all nine essential amino acids (which our bodies can’t make and must acquire from food). It’s also very versatile; you can make dishes […]

vegan cherry coconut ice cream 2

Read more 

 I’ve tried my hand at vegan ice cream before (check out this vegan Cherry Garcia), but recently I’ve been blending up all kinds of different ice cream-esque creations (including my favorite adult beverage as of late involving watermelon and tequila). Today, we’re making Vegan Cherry Coconut Ice Cream with fresh coconut, cherries, and ice. Let’s […]

Continuing strawberry week, today I have a seemingly decadent Strawberry Shortcake Smoothie. It only seems decadent though; it’s actually gluten-free, vegan, and you’ll feel good after drinking it. A completely sinful-looking healthy summer treat that is packed with good-for-you ingredients? What’s better than that? The Coconut Whipped Cream and Shortbread Cookie toppings are completely optional, but […]

 If you haven’t jumped on the beet bandwagon yet, my advice to you is to get on it!!! They are delicious on their own, but paired with crispy kale, buttery avocado, and Creamy Tahini Dressing they are perfection!! Start with a giant bowl of freshly chopped kale.  Next, pour on this heavenly delicious Creamy Tahini Dressing. […]

 I’m finishing out Smoothie Week with my favorite detox green smoothie recipe. It may be because of an allergy or a taste preference, but some people prefer their green smoothie without banana, which can sometimes be hard to come by in the green smoothie recipe realm. Today’s post is just that- a green smoothie without banana! Pear helps […]
