Green-Queen Power Ceasar Salad {vegan}

Ceasar-effin-Salads.

Known for their luxurious creaminess and beautiful tang. Loved for their gluttony and use of bacon.

An American staple.

Although they may sit pretty next to your bacon cheeseburgers, most ceasar salads don’t have much to boast about nutrition-wise.

Then trusty resourceful vegans came along and created a trillion varieties of plant-based ceasar dressings that not only replicate the bright flavour of the traditional salad, but are nutritionally bountiful!

Sweet & Creamy Curry Everything Dressing {vegan}

The name says it all; luxuriously creamy curry dressing with a pleasantly sweet tang. Lip-smackingly-good!

This gal is currently making the slow transition to 95% vegan (perfection is daunting),  over here and having so much fun doing it!  To some people, the thought of adapting a vegan lifestyle all about restrictions and discipline.  A year ago that would be me too.  But now I see it as opening my eyes to not only a healthier way of life, but a more creative and exciting way to prepare food. When the main part of your meal doesn’t include animal product, it allows you to get craftier than you may have in the past. Your imagination can truly run wild with ways to make plant based meals taste and look amazing. Even more so, it is incredibly gratifying to share your nutritious foods with your family- and have them ask for seconds.

Outrageously Crunchy Broccoli Slaw with Sesame Ginger Dressing

I’m about to make you crave raw broccoli in ways you probably never thought possible.

Crunchy, crispy, tangy, nutty with bursts of sweet acidity, this salad has everything you want in a slaw. But what better way to get your super greens in then covering it in a nutty sesame dressing.

Although its usually served cooked because of its ‘tough’ tendencies, raw broccoli is bursting with health benefits just waiting to be taken advantage of-

“Expect Nothing, Experience Everything” – My motto for the beautiful month of February! Monday evening here, coming off a sugar high from the most rad birthday weekend a gal could ask for. This past Sunday I turned 24 and was elated to spend the weekend being pampered with gifts, love and attention by family and friends.

Dijon-dressed Kale Salad with Roasted Sweet Potato & Apple

A little salty with your sweet, a little crispy with your crunch. A little adventure in every bite. That’s the way this salad goes

I was struggling with the idea of posting today; let alone eating anything besides oatmeal and peanut butter. You see, I have a very sick puppy on my hands and its heart breaking to see an innocent animal in even the slightest pain.

Cheeky Coconut Cherry Bombs

Tart, cheeky, and surprisingly creamy; these cherry bombs are a tiny reminiscent of the cherry’s & cream Danish pastries from my childhood’s past.

I’m on a roll…with making balls these days. (sorry) But seriously I can’t stop experimenting and dreaming up recipes for raw and raw-ish treat balls. They are magic in helping me get over my cray cray sugar addiction! A lil date and a lil dried cherry goes a long way folks.
