I really love the healthy truffles that I discovered a couple weeks ago but when I went to make them yesterday, I realized that I didn’t have enough walnuts, pecans, or almonds to make them. I did however have a lot of desiccated coconut and really felt like something “coconut-y”. Hmm – I wonder what … Read more
These everyday healthy truffles are a sweet treat without the guilt. While I make some pretty awesome vegan truffles, they’re a little bit of a mess to put together and certainly not something you’d want to eat everyday. However, these little guys are full of healthy ingredients and they’re super easy to make. If you … Read more
Pretty epic title, huh? Well, it’s totally true. The other day, while watching a boring movie (can’t even remember the title, it was THAT bad), I was Googling vegan raw recipes on my iPhone. I was in the mood for something sweet, yet healthy, and I eventually settled on some raw vegan brownies. They turned … Read more
You’re probably sick of holiday sweets by now, but I made these elegant truffles over the holidays and wanted to share them with you. I actually found this recipe for Easy Decadent Truffles a few years ago and have veganized it with great success a few times now. You’ve got to get your hands messy to … Read more

They’re just as delicious and comforting as fruit pies, without all the effort of … Read more
Continuing with my tropical theme this week, here’s a yummy tropical tapioca pudding recipe. I’ve named it “Drunk Pineapple Coconut Tapioca Pudding” because the pineapple is sautéed in dark rum. I especially like serving this after Indian or Thai food. The cool, creamy texture is refreshing after a spicy meal, and the tropical fruits compliments … Read more
These wholewheat pineapple carrot muffins are perfectly fluffy and delicious. The recipe yields 10 regular sized muffins, which can be made ahead as they’re freezer-friendly.

This vegan chocolate truffle torte is the most luxurious dessert that I make. It’s definitely not an everyday dessert, but something that I reserve for special occasions a few times a year. It easily holds-up to any non-vegan dessert served at fancy restaurants. It’s extremely rich, so you only need to serve a small piece, and … Read more
These caramel apple muffins are one of my favorite vegan muffin recipes. The crumbly, sugary topping makes them taste like gooey caramel apples — minus the sticky fingers and face! You could leave out the topping to make these a bit healthier, but it really adds a great taste and texture to these muffins. Go … Read more
