The plant-based yogurt game is STRONG these days which makes it easy and fun to get my probiotics in each day! Amongst my favorite brand is Lavva Yogurt made from. Pili nuts and coconut cream. It’s smooth, tangy, creamy and the perfect base for this quick Vanilla Mousse that makes a beautiful and memorable Spring dessert! The mousse is simply Vanilla Lavva whipped with full fat coconut cream and a bit of stevia to sweeten. […]

Heyyy there! I’ve got the best news! I created a crazy easy no-churn ice cream made with just a handful of organic, plant-based ingredients. (thanks, So Delicious!) This frozen treat is full of sweet cinnamon, fragrant vanilla, caramel-ly dates, and is easily whipped up in a high-speed blender.

Coffee filters are wasteful. And although sometimes it’s necessary to grab a to-go beverage from a coffee shop or dare I say fast-food joint, it’s certainly wasteful to make it a daily habit. That being said, what’s the best way to create an […]

Sometimes I’m just chugging along at life – doing what I gotta do – and I need a cookie ASAP. Can you relate? Ya know those moments when, like, whipping together cookie dough becomes the most important thing to do that very second because your appetite becomes a BIG distraction? And of course it’s in this moment when I am mindlessly throwing ingredients into a bowl that a whole new epic cookie recipe (or kind […]
