Vegan Matcha Chocolate Chip Pancakes
What do you make for dinner on a rainy day when you need a mood booster? Pancakes. At least that is what I made. Colorful pancakes, because those are fun right?! Well, I was just in a matcha sort of mood, so I made matcha chocolate chip pancakes to share with Eric, because he is […]
Vegan Green Tea Strawberry Rhubarb Cupcakes
Did your Grandma ever make jam? Or did she have friends that did who shared it with you? Well mine did, and let me tell you, that jam was some of the best I have ever eaten. I mean really, most store bought jam just doesn’t compare to home made. So, I was thinking about […]
Green Tea Mint Scrub
I recently tried a facial scrub with peppermint in it, and I loved it so much that I decided to create my own mint body scrub. In the summer after a workout in the hot humid air, it is nice to pamper yourself while in the shower cooling off. The peppermint in the scrub cools […]
Matcha Almond Fig Overnight Oats
I got my hands on some gorgeous figs, and although I enjoyed some plain, some made it into my breakfast as well. I have been making special variations of overnight oats on the weekend. During the week I am pretty boring, just the same old spices that are cheap and quick. But on the […]
Vegan Matcha Raspberry Meringues
With all of the vegan meringues that have been popping up lately on social media I had to try my hand at making some. I admit that these types of things have always intimidated me a bit, especially macarons which I used to love before I stopped eating animal products. Funny because I like […]

Raw Matcha Almond Tart with Berries
The weather here has been glorious lately. Waking up to about 45 degrees, running in the cool morning air, taking in the aroma of the few spring blossoms that have decided to start blooming and listening to the song of the excited birds is pretty amazing in the morning. Then in the afternoon it is […]
Raw Green Tea Ice Cream with Strawberry Swirl
When I was enjoying a cup of warm matcha recently, I admired the lovely green color in my mug and I thought, how lovely would it be to make a matcha ice cream with a strawberry swirl? The green contrasting the red, and the earthy matcha paired with the sweet berries. I had to make […]
Raw Green Tea Almond Raspberry Granola
My Mom drinks green tea every day, and she loves my granola for breakfast. So I thought I would create a recipe for her that combined two of the things she loves. Plus, I am a fan of granola myself and I can not resist anything with matcha in it lately. It has found its […]
Vegan Matcha White Chocolates

Everything about it is appealing to me, from its beautiful green hue to its earthy addictive aroma and flavor. I love it in desserts paired with sweet […]
