Cilantro Corn & Carrot Slaw (and why I need to live in San Diego)

After a week long vaca in San Diego, my top three favorite things about our trip were the weather, the food and…oh yeah, the food. As great as it was seeing Jim’s family, spending our days relaxing on the beach and absorbing some much needed Vitamin D, nothing compared to my giddiness over the prospects […]

Raw Coconut Cranberry Energy Bars

These bars are absolute genius. Unfortunately, they were not my brain child. If you’ve got Pinterest or follow a plethora of food blogs, chances are you’ve seen this recipe EVERYWHERE the past few weeks.

I’m so grateful for my animal-free diet, especially because it’s provided me with the opportunity to […]

4 Ingredient Dipped Peanut Butter Pretzel Bites

I’ve seriously stumbled upon something amazing, my friends. These mini peanut butter pretzel bites dipped in vegan chocolate chips are downright addictive and I am willing to bet no one would believe they’re vegan at all. They’re one of those snacks you make a pit stop in the kitchen for every time you pass by them. I actively had […]
