Vegan Key Lime Pie Raspberry Ice Cream
We are almost into summer and it’s been pretty warm here the last few weeks, so I am definitely craving ice cream! I could just go buy some vegan ice cream at the store, but I really enjoy making my own unique flavors. Last weekend I was thinking something citrusy sounded good, so I made […]
Roasted Spring Vegetable Buddha Bowl
I tend to eat the same 4 things every week for dinner. Unless I am creating a new recipe then I will vary what I make. But the rest of the time when I make the same things it is mostly just because I know what I like, and because it ends up being a […]
Strawberry Peach Avocado Quinoa Salad
We have a quinoa salad in the deli I work in that has Summer fruits in it and it is pretty popular. You wouldn’t think that quinoa and fruit would be a pair unless it was a breakfast quinoa or something but it actually really works as a savory salad! I actually have made quite […]
Vegan Summer Chocolate Berry Tartlettes
One of my favorite parts of Summer is the berries! And, luckily the wild raspberries are growing like crazy around here this year! Every time Eric and I go out for a walk practically we find more ripe ones to pick. I guess I consider berries special because it is only this time of the […]
Avocado Hemp Butter
Have you ever gone to the store and wanted a vegan spreadable butter, and looked at the ones that were available, only to find out that they contained processed ingredients, or unhealthy oils? Well, I have. It has been the only thing that has stopped me from buying them. About 10 years ago I actually […]
Vegan Avocado Brownies
Brownie baking is the perfect activity for your day off. Especially if it has been a particularly stressful, or the weather outside is crappy. I mean, one can not possibly be in a bad mood while baking brownies. The whole process is enjoyable. Eating the last bit of batter leftover in the bowl, taking in […]
Vegan Chocolate Avocado Cake
An occasion such as Valentine’s Day, deserves the perfect decadent rich chocolate. So, I decided to make one last weekend. Eric and I celebrated early since the actual holiday is during the work week and I am working. We went for a long walk around Minneapolis in our favorite area, then hit up our favorite […]
Vegan Spicy Sweet Potato Tots with Cilantro Avocado Dipping Sauce
Minnesotans love their tater tots. I mean, we have a whole hot dish featuring them and named after them. So, why didn’t I love them as a child like everyone else? I don’t know. Maybe because they were always served in school lunches, and the first time I tried them they were soaked in the […]
Holiday Entertaining! Mini Sweet Potato Avocado Crostini and GOODFOODS Guacamole
The Holidays are a beautiful time of the year. Getting together with loved ones you haven’t seen in ages, sparkling snow and twinkling lights, and choosing the perfect thoughtful Christmas presents for friends and family. But they can also be hectic, and stressful if you are the one hosting the get together, or maybe you […]
Vegan Avocado Potato Salad
I got my hands on some of the most beautiful potatoes I had ever seen last week. They were a mix of purple, pink and yellow. I have seen a lot of these potatoes at the farmer’s market lately and I have been wanting to buy some, but didn’t get around to it until […]
