Mmm.. vegan chocolate lava cake. It’s gooey, melty, full of rich dark chocolate, and usually the crown jewel of any dessert menu. I mean, who doesn’t want to take a giant spoonful of a cake that oozes delicious melty chocolate? Before making this vegan chocolate lava cake, I hadn’t had it in years. As a teenager I…

I have a secret. These vegan red velvet cheesecake brownies are healthy. Not just “not that bad for you” but actually healthy, especially for a dessert. I know what you’re thinking, there’s no way a red velvet cheesecake brownie could be good for you. But these actually (kinda) are! Not only are these beauties fully vegan…
If you’ve never tried vegan sushi before, I encourage you to give it a whirl! This was my first time making it myself and it was a COMPLETE success. This tomato spicy tuna is healthy, flavorful, and a snap to prepare. Rolling up vegan sushi rolls with no experience and no mat may seem daunting…

Ahh, Thanksgiving. This is the time of year when I get my stretchy pants ready and prepare to FEAST. This year, however, I am making healthier versions of all my favorite dishes so when I go back for seconds (and thirds) I can do so with less guilt and more pleasure. I mean, if you’re…
Sweet Potato Falafel Burgers combine two of my great food loves. It’s like if sweet potato and falafel had a baby. A bright orange, crunchy, delicious baby. These Sweet Potato Falafel Burgers were inspired by the incredible sandwiches at a local LA falafel spot called Fala Bar. With traffic, the closest location is nearly 45 minutes…
The idea for these Raw Vegan Chocolate Orange Tarts has been swimming around in my head for a few weeks now, just waiting for the opportunity to come to life and delight the senses. Let me tell you, they did not disappoint. Typically when I’ve been thinking of a recipe for a while, there’s always…
Now, more than ever, the world needs comfort food. Enter Vegan Shepherd’s Pie. I actually made this recipe nearly two months ago. I’ve been meaning to post it but the timing never felt quite right. I can see now that I was saving it for a time when my country and the entire world desperately needs…
Raise your hand if you love pumpkin butter. *Waves hands wildly. How about pumpkin butter with only 3 ingredients that’s naturally sweetened? *Begins clapping like a maniac. This is the time of year when I want to spread pumpkin butter on EVERYTHING. Toast, pancakes, biscuits, cinnamon buns, sundaes. You name it, I wanna put pumpkin…
