This overnight chia pudding is as delicious for breakfast as it is healthy and filling. Having some of this breakfast fills me up all morning, since it is hearty and also energizing. It’s easy to modify based on what you have in the fridge, too. And the best thing about this recipe is you can […]

Want to make the easiest jam, with absolutely no cooking or fuss involved? Doesn’t even require any equipment? Try this incredibly easy overnight jam.

California Fusion Plant Based Spring roll: Vegan wrap with avocado and vegetables
Spring rolls are a perfect, easy plant-based lunch. They are inexpensive, vegetable forward, and also don’t take a long time to make. Simply wet a rice paper wrapper in some warm water, add your vegetables, and roll it up. Dip it in any number of sauces, and enjoy. Another reason I love spring rolls is […]

This creamy tropical green bean smoothie also has kale, but adding a tropical blend of fruit, watermelon juice, and some cashew milk to make it taste like […]
Bok choy and Red Pepper juice
This juicing recipe does not yield pretty looking juice, but it’s healthy and pretty tasty. I wondered what Bok Choy would taste like juiced, and it’s not too strong (reminiscent of celery).
Grapefruit and Fennel juice
This is one of my favorite recipes for juicing – Grapefruit Fennel. It was the first juice we tried upon purchasing our first juicer, and one of the simplest. It remains my favorite juice to this day! The hint of anise pairs so well with the tart grapefruit.

Loaded with healthy ingredients to get your nutrition punch, the chia pudding is a healthy way to keep you going until lunch. But what’s best is when you layer these ingredients together. You get the texture contrast between […]
Southwest vegan caesar salad (Oil Free, Vegan)
Let’s face it, sometimes salads can get a bit boring. Not to mention a very “cliche” vegan choice (don’t all of our omnivore friends think all we eat is salad?). This vegan Caesar salad is simple to make and full of flavor due to the tangy dressing (found here). Honestly, I don’t miss the dairy […]
