Sometimes I buy berries with the grand idea of freezing them so I can add them to smoothies, muffins or a dessert crisp. But then I see how exquisite they and want to eat them completely raw and untouched.

Easy as Pie: Vegan Chocolate Chip Cookies
These amazing vegan chocolate chip cookies are for anyone who doesn’t bake much. They are fast, easy, and great when you want a warm cookie for dessert or want to bring your non-vegan friends a treat they will enjoy!!! I love the rustic texture of these chocolate chip cookies and believe the Spelt flour gives them a sophisticated flavor.
Granolicious: This Granola is Addictive!
I’ve always loved cereal and prided myself on eating the “healthy stuff” like Cheerios and Frosted Mini Wheats (the frosting was the bomb). As I got older, I tried to make healthier choices – or so I thought. I started reading labels more closely and was horrified to learn that my favorite “health cereals were really just sugar in a box!!!! Cereal is marketed as being a healthy breakfast option when in reality it’s a highly processed food that contains large amounts of sugar. This Granolicious granola is a better substitute. It still has some sugar in it, but that’s not the main ingredient.
Cheater Chai
I love hot chai lattes especially when it’s cold out and I’m feeling chilled. The warm spices and light sweetness taste healing and comforting. I also like having a warm vegan treat now and then which is hard since I don’t drink coffee and am very sensitive to the effects of caffeine. Most cafe’s and coffee shops don’t offer decaffeinated chai so I make this as a special treat for myself at home.
