Okay, now I’m really ready for this week to end! I got this bright idea for dinner to try a curry spinach pate because I have quite a bit of spinach in my garden now. Cute ladybug, huh? It’s like she was waiting there for me to take the picture. :-) Anyway, I got really […]
Key Lime Pie & Plenty of Salad
Sigh, here we are at Sunday night again, another weekend flew by too fast! I did survive my nephew’s birthday party yesterday and the two raw dishes I took were a hit. For the side dish (or main for me) I decided to take Ani’s Simple Oregano Rosemary Noodle Salad. But I ran out of […]
Alfredo Remix & Dinner-to-go
Happy Saturday, I hope everyone is having a super weekend so far. Today I will be preparing a raw key lime pie and one of Ani’s new recipes for my nephew’s birthday party. My sister is having the event catered by a very non-vegan Mexican restaurant, so I had to pack alternatives to mountains of […]
Red Hemp Kale Chip Recipe
It’s probably a crime that I have not made kale chips in my Excalibur dehydrator yet and I’ve have it for months! Wouldn’t you know I started seriously craving them during my “reduced nut intake” weeks and most of the recipes I’ve seen call for cashews. My goals for the next few weeks or so […]
Hemp Seed Broccoli Mash Recipe
It’s Monday and this week is already looking to be a busy one. As I mentioned yesterday, I’ve been noticing more skin breakouts and am doing a little experimenting this week to try and figure out why. One possibility is my high nut intake may be causing it, another is the possibility that I’m not […]
Great Outdoors
So sad this weekend is almost over especially if the looming work week is going to be anything like last week – ick! Over the last week, I’ve been noticing more face breakouts here and there again I’m not thrilled about! So I’ve been researching possible causes and it may be related to my high […]
Happy Earth Day
And happy almost-Friday! I like to think I celebrate Earth Day everyday and much more so since going high-raw. By making my own almond milk, I’m not using cartons the store bought stuff comes in or wasting the pulp. Most of the time I use my own bags when grocery shopping or shopping at Target. […]
Creamy Baja Dip Recipe
Happy not-Monday-anymore to everyone. This has been a hectic week at work so far, but it’s nice to come home and decompress in the kitchen and kick in some cardio to a new playlist. I had lunch with my nurse mother again today and got to listen to her vent about her frustrating day at […]
Spicy Spinach Tortillas
I hope everyone is having a great weekend so far. Mine has been wonderful thanks to beautiful weather! Finally, right? For once I’m not whining about the weather! :-P Anyway, it’s also been a productive weekend in gardening and creating another dehydrator recipe. First, yesterday I threw together a quick taco-themed salad for lunch – […]
Brazil Nut Parm Topping Recipe
I am so glad it’s Friday and a beautiful one here! Temps in the 70s with plenty of sun and it’s supposed to continue through the weekend, finally! I had lunch with my sister and two young nieces today and had an interesting conversation with the 4-year-old. She asked me what I usually had for […]
