This is another recipe I so wish I had conceived of earlier in life — makes me think, “Who knew?” What a luscious, satisfying combination, great for a quick breakfast (especially if you’ve made the Vanilla Milk the night before, from either raw pumpkin seeds or raw almonds), but also wonderful for a light supper [...]
I love young coconuts, but since I moved this past summer, I haven’t found a local source for them… and have had plenty of other recipes options that I haven’t been motivated to put a request into my local grocer to order a case for me. I’ll get to it… because I surely love them. [...]
I’m visiting family in Florida right now for the holidays, and when I saw the giant bowls of freshly picked, home-grown oranges, tangerines, grapefruits, and lemons in their kitchen, I knew straightaway that citrus was going to figure prominently in a few of my recipes this week! Then my mom asked me to show her [...]
Maca root, a staple food in Peru and a superfood that comes to us from the Incan culture, is well-known as a potent adaptogen and long-reputed to increase libido and fertility. Thing is, as perhaps the most potent radish on the planet, it has a distinctive and highly dominant flavor that can be challenging to [...]
Wow… love this recipe. It honestly doesn’t get any easier than this, and it’s recipes like this that, as you slurp them up with relish, you’re bound to wonder… “Why in the world did I never make this stuff before???” I’ve had this bin of raisins in my fridge for awhile…raisins homemade and sun-dried by my great-aunt in Greece, [...]
I’m still laughing with glee over this one… it’s mad-crazy delicious, exploding with lemony zing, and as creamy as can be. And took just a few minutes to make from fresh ingredients and a bit of raw cane sugar. And of course, this is entirely without dairy… a true raw vegan recipe for anyone that [...]
Yah, I know… this vanilla creme tart is green. Well.. let’s talk about that. I am a serious vanilla-lover. And one of my dreams is to create a raw vegan dessert that can rival vanilla pudding or custard creme — or any of the other fabulously creamy vanilla fillings made in the cooked-food realm. The [...]
This unique recipe is extremely simple, has a delicious creamy mouth-feel… and is made with cold-pressed olive oil! There is no melting of fat required. You just whip it up in your blender or your food processor, shape it and put into the freezer to firm up, then cut into pieces. I was reflecting on [...]
The objective here was to make a super-easy, super-fast raw chocolate pudding from simple ingredients — something to pull out when a chocolate craving hits — and this sure got the job done! I also wanted to make it with cacao nibs, as I seem to go through raw cacao power like crazy, but tend [...]
This pretty smoothie looks like a strawberry milkshake, and tastes rather like one as well! You would almost… almost… not know that it’s made with cranberries and not strawberries, but there is a slight cranberry flavor finish and makes it’s way through the deliciously sweet, creamy richness. This is definitely a dessert raw smoothie, when [...]
