Cocoa & Maca Bliss Balls (Vegan+GF)
Today’s all about simplicity and ease. Sometimes less is more and that’s what I’m feeling today, sound good? I know I’ve shared some recipes for bliss balls in the recent past but today I tried something new. Ever heard of maca? It’s becoming quite popular within the health food niches these days for all it’s said health benefits. Now to be completely honest, I try to look at any foods in this category with my “bs radar” turned on high, if you know what I mean. Haven’t we all heard of the newest “superfood” that thrives growing in the impossibly harsh conditions of the Icelandic glaciers, is picked by virgin nuns, cures cancer,…

Cherry Berry Nice Cream Sundaes (Vegan+GF)
Is there such a thing as too much ice cream? Also, does anyone else just want to shake the hand of the person who discovered that blending frozen bananas creates this miraculous, creamy consistency? I know I do. Seriously guys, nice cream is life. There’s a cherry tree in our backyard that has the prettiest flowers when it blooms. This year it has matured enough to yield some pretty sweet cherries so we did our best to pick them all. What really surprised me though, was how quickly they came and went. I walked out back a few days ago and they were literally gone already. I was only able to find…

Homemade Fig Newton Cookies (Vegan+GF)
It’s been a really long time since I’ve made a treat like this. And by that I mean me attempting to copy a food that is usually made in a factory with machines doing all the time-consuming things (i.e. fig newtons). I remember the first time I made these little cookies years ago in a little kitchen in South America. It’s strange how much that chapter of my life is starting to seem like a forgotten dream. But anyway, I used dried figs for those and a bunch of other things that probably didn’t need to go into them. For these I tried to keep it as simple as possible with pretty basic…

Simple Nuts & Seeds Muesli Cereal
I found a new favorite thing guys! Do I say that a lot? I think I say that a lot. You’ve probably at least heard me obsess about granola right? Well, muesli is basically the close cousin of granola but it’s just a little different. The first time I heard of museli I just didn’t get it. I know for sure I didn’t even know how to say it right and I couldn’t figure out the difference between it and granola. So whats really cool about muesli is that it’s even simpler to make than granola. Granola is actually really easy so that’s saying a lot. With muesli you can choose to…

Walnut Chocolate Chunk Banana Bread (V+GF)+ Video
Sup, my friends? So I’ve gotta say, after a few weeks of traveling and being on the go so much it’s been really strange to try to get back to sharing recipes again. It’s kind of hard to explain but, regardless, I’m really happy to be back in the kitchen. I’ve been really in the mood for simple classics recently. I’ve also been really trying to come up with more balanced treats to share because I know personally I always feel better when I’m eating something that’s both nutritious AND delicious and I’m guessing you do too.
