Homemade Almond Milk + Video (Vegan+GF)
I think it’s pretty safe to say there are a lot of options for plant-based milks on the market today. You’ve got oat milk, cashew milk, rice, soy, pistachio, hazelnut, hemp, and the list goes on and on……… So, why then, would you want to go to the effort of making your own? I mean, if you haven’t seen all the hilarious memes of desperate people spending all their time “milking” almonds every morning then what are you doing with your life? (Google it if you want a laugh 😉 ) But anyway, there are actually tons of reasons that you might want to make your own. Firstly, the taste is so much…

Energizing Ginger Berry Maca Smoothie (Vegan+GF)
It’s been a minute since I’ve shared a smoothie recipe. I guess it’s because they are such a common thing in my house that I think of them as sort of mundane. While I don’t have a smoothie every single day, I do usually end up making one everyday for others in my family. Of course, those are usually very basic with mostly fruits. This one however, is more my style of smoothie when I am in the mood. Now I don’t know if you’ve heard of this little health hack before but you have to try it. It’s cauliflower, and hold on just a second before you bale. Believe me, I…

“Egg”nog Latte (Vegan Starbucks Copycat)
Because what better way to start the week, right? And especially this time of year. I mean, it’s December, everything’s getting all Christmasy, and Baby, it’s cold outside. I know I’m in the mood for lattes! What about you? Ha, as if! Okay I admit it, I’ve slowly been becoming a coffee addict over the past year(ish) and now I think there is a distinct possibility that I’ll end up being one of those people who can’t function without it someday. This is something that would probably bother me more, depress me even, if I wasn’t currently buzzed on the Joe. Instead I’m rationalizing that I’d never want to exist in a world…

Cherry Vanilla Bean Soda Ice Cream Floats (Vegan+GF)
I haven’t had a float since…well forever ago. I think the last time was when I was a little kid sitting in a Sonic drive-in parking lot, my short legs dangling from our car’s backseat that was too tall to allow them to reach the floor. I probably had straight-across bangs and pigtails too if you want the whole picture. I’ve had this recipe on my list for months now and I’ve been dying to share it before summer is over. I love that you can switch out the fruit with other kinds like berries, peaches, pineapple, oranges….. Endless possibilities here. I could have chosen one of those fruits but it was too late.…

Hot, Hot, Hot, We Got It! Nog Hot Chocolate
Here we only have one rule; never, ever let it cool!…………… Who’s all aboard for some hot chocolate? Great, cause, I don’t know if you can tell, but I’m so excited to share it with you! In case you missed the last few posts this week, I’ve been doing recipes inspired by our favorite Christmas movies. Today, of course, is inspired by Polar Express! Come on, who doesn’t love the hot chocolate scene, it’s one of the best parts! I know that since the movie came out, there have probably been a bazillion recipes inspired by it, but I think this one is pretty unique. I put a lot of thought into how…

Edible Gifting Week #5: DIY Vegan Hot Cocoa Mix 4 Ways
I’m ending my series of edible holiday gifting ideas with #5, hot cocoa mixes! A cup of hot Cocoa is like the quintessential holiday drink. It’s an icon that everyone can associate with Christmas. Come on, who doesn’t love a hot cup of cocoa to sip on during the cold winter season? I’m going to assume that you all just did a little cocoa dance, or at the very least are silently cheering with me for the wonderful creation that is sweet and cozy hot cocoa. Now, if you just mentally responded to the negative, then you’d better go find someone else’s parade to rain on because cocoa and I are really having a…
