These past two weeks have been quite packed for me, and I needed a basic, no-fuss breakfast – that’s preferably seasonal too! Cinnamon spice overnight oats is as simple as it gets, even more than cereal and milk; all you have to do is mix and refrigerate, and you have yourself breakfast for the next 5 days. And before you discard this recipe because you think it’ll be mushy, I can assure you that with steel-cut oats, it keeps its hearty qualities. With just a three ingredient base, you can add anything you want – peanut butter, vanilla, pumpkin puree – the options are endless. Plus, you don’t need an exact recipe 🙂
Perhaps one of the best food related things about Fall is the beverages: the coffee cups warming your hands on your way to work, the pumpkin spiced latte on your break, the list goes on. Sometimes, instead of entering out in the cold to get your fix of these beverages, make it at home and make it better health and taste wise! All you need is a coffee creamer base to transform it into your favorite beverage.
Superfood and candy – now that sounds like an oxymoron. Enter peanut butter cup chia pudding, the perfect way to satisfy your candy cravings, while taking in some superfood benefits!
Summer is officially here, and for those that hope to stay healthy during the heat, I have the perfect recipe for you – vegan chocolate pudding. You can make within 5 minutes because there are only 5 ingredients: cocoa powder, maple syrup, salt, vanilla, and… avocado.
Nutella is one of the hardest things to separate yourself from when you become dairy free. But the more you separate yourself from it, the more you realize how unhealthy it is for you. It’s essentially a frosting – but possibly worse. Nutella has an astounding 21g sugar, while Betty Crocker’s Rich and Creamy White Frosting has 19g.
Deviled eggs are one of those extremely easy recipes, and are very impressive. Super tasty, and rich in protein and omega 3, you can eat these during anytime of the day, for any occasion.
For those people yesterday like me, who ate no candy due to dairy and gluten intolerances, have a chance to catch up today with these awesome peanut butter cup eyes! They were an experiment of mine that finally have been perfected. The secret – two types of peanut butters – roasted and raw. The roasted flavor enhances the chocolate, and the raw peanut flavor paired with the coconut oil and maple syrup, add delicacy. Did I forget to mention that these peanut butter cups only have 4 ingredients? It’s that simple.
The time has come! You can have vegan greek yogurt! Is that even possible?! I am pleased to say, “YES.” Even better – you can make it at home with the simplest ingredients, 6 to be exact.
It all started when I made my vegan cheesecake, I had left over soaked cashews, so I decided to attempt making my own yogurt. It turned out amazingly! This yogurt has the texture and tang of greek yogurt.
Since it’s so simple that you can completely customize it into anything you want. For example, you can put in probiotic powder in it to create more of a tangy flavor, or you can add some cocoa powder and expresso powder to create a mocha flavor. The possibilities are endless!
A mug cake is something you can make under 5 minutes without having to go crazy with all the ingredients… The problem is the mug cake’s taste and texture. We’ve all experienced the moment our mug cakes were too gooey or too dry, or that simply tasted like dog food. Fortunately, you’re in luck because an easy, delicious, moist mug cake is coming your way. After several test tries, and the help of my friends, I was able to create a delicious cake. I mean mug cake!
You can do so much with this recipe like add in cinnamon, nutmeg, or some dark chocolate chips! My final test of the mug cakes included vanilla beans, and my friends (who are not gluten free or dairy free) said, “This is it. It’s so good!” And they are right. Enjoy making it and eating it!
