You’ll be so surprised how this tastes… no one would ever suspect that there’s fresh, raw zucchini in it! Talk about a reason to over-plant your garden with squash this year!

Fresh, raw zucchini added to a smoothie is a revelation, and especially when added to a simple, plain vanilla smoothie, which thrives on having as much of a neutral (as well as a creamy) backdrop as possible.

If you haven’t yet tried any of the smoothies I’ve been whipping up lately with fresh aloe vera gel, maybe this will be the one to send you over the edge and buy a handful of aloe vera leaves at your local grocery store. I’d like to say that this is my favorite one, but the [...]

Alone, this dish is like a raw pasta, which you can enjoy chilled or room temperature as a “pasta salad”, or which you can warm slightly to take the chill off in the oven (with temp set on “warm” and the door open, and your plate handle-able with bare hands). For those who are seeking [...]

This recipe is definitely a Christmas gift to me from my generous culinary muses, who know very well that I’m an unrepentant vanilla whore ever in pursuit of raw vegan recipes that can showcase vanilla the delicious way that milk can.

This is definitely the perfect Lemon Drop — quick-to-make, all-raw ingredients (except the vodka, of course…), and absolutely delish! My Christmas Wish for this elegantly simple recipe is that you pass it around, make it for your friends and family this holiday season, and start incorporating it into your cocktail culture. And if you mention [...]
