Chocolate Avocado Mousse
I used to be a huge fan of the Food Network and watched tons of their shows. Then we shifted the way we eat, and cancelled our cable and the programs fell by the wayside.
Double Chocolate Chaga Cheesecake with Coconut Whipped Cream
We didn't go too nuts with sweet treats during the holidays this year – mostly because we were in the midst of moving and didn't have a lot of opportunity to bake cookies!
Lemon Lavender Cashew Cheesecake
I am not typically a lemon dessert person, however this cheesecake recipe is the exception to the rule! I was inspired to try my hand at this combination when I tried the Lavender Lemon Cheesecake at Be Love last week.
Milk (aka Holiday Nog) and Cookies for Santa
Over the past few years our ritual of setting out milk and cookies for Santa has shifted somewhat. We have gone from Almond Holiday Nog in a carton to a homemade variety, created with my friend Johanna at the same time as the Gingerbread Latte I posted a few days ago.
Superfood Cashew Pumpkin Cheesecake with Coconut Whipped Cream
When I was a kid, long before plant based foods became an integral part of my life, Thanksgiving was about one thing, and one thing only: Pumpkin Pie. I could take or leave the turkey, along with the weeks of turkey soup that followed. What I looked forward to the most was pumpkin pie, topped with a healthy dollop of whipped cream of course.
Popsicle Trio
Nothing says summer quite like a popsicle, especially the home made variety. I am not a huge fan of conventional popsicles; I have done quite a bit of research into artificial flavours and colours and am simply not comfortable putting all of that junk in my body (and more importantly, the bodies of my kids).
Chocolate Panda Tea Infused Coconut Ice Cream
This week's ice cream post was motivated by a few different things. We have had a glorious summer thus far, with beautiful sunny days - and thankfully a bit of much needed rain in the last little while. I have always felt that ice cream pairs well with warm, sunny days and our recent acquisition of a new ice cream maker opened up a whole world of possibilities.
