A favorite flavor of mine is peppermint and one of my favorite things ever is chocolate!!! So a combo of the 2 gets me pretty excited. I just made this recipe for the first time for my Young Living Essential Oils workshop. It's a cross between my favorite chocolate bar (that I eat um... 'almost' daily) which has toasted quinoa for a light crispy crunch and a Nestle Crunch bar, which I no longer … [Read more...]
Lemon Meringue Cookies (Vegan & Gluten Free)
My current obsession are meringues. It's like magic (more on this below!) and I can't get enough. These VEGAN lemon meringue cookies are SO good my Dad (who is NOT vegan or gluten free) polished off an entire dish of them without even leaving me one! He also thought it was pretty darn cool when he found out what they were made of! Do you know what it is? No, not egg whites... it's VEGAN! Any … [Read more...]
Carrot Cake & Cream “Cheese” Frosting (Vegan & Gluten Free)
My husband's birthday was coming up and I asked him what kind of cake he wanted. Last year I made my chocolate cupcakes, but I wanted to make something new this year! His request... carrot cake! So I took the cream cheese frosting from my blueberry cake and made my first ever carrot cake! I know it's really hard to believe that as a bunny lover, I've never made it before but it's true! (Eaten it, … [Read more...]
Decadent Vegan Hot Chocolate
I had a friend visit recently. Normally people bring food TO a new mama, but she recently had a baby herself so ... same boat! She's a dear good friend who I've known for years. She used to be my neighbor when we were both married to our first husbands! Now, we are both re-married and have 2 children each and live close to each other again over a decade later! It was actually a cool and rainy … [Read more...]
Pumpkin Pie Truffles (Vegan & Gluten Free)
I love pumpkin and I LOVE chocolate! I'm also not a fan of dough, crust or unnecessary cookie parts in cakes or pies... I guess I'm a purist that way? :) So what happens when you take the best part of pumpkin pie (the inside!) AND combine it with chocolate!? Pumpkin pie truffles! These are so yummy, so easy and definitely healthier than your typical treat. A cup of pumpkin puree has 3 … [Read more...]
Roasted Creamy Cauliflower & Truffle Soup (Vegan & Gluten Free)
I was working on my Winter Soup Series and got so carried away that I ended up with one more, after I put together the recipes. I JUST made this tonight (it's actually a rainy day here in LA!) and it was incredible. So creamy, decadent and yummy! REALLY hard to believe it's vegan! This soup is great without cashews (if you want a nut free soup or don't have cashews!) and truffle oil BUT... I have … [Read more...]
[Babysitter Blog] – The Karma Baker
Today's guest "Babysitter Blog" post is from Celine, founder of Karma Baker - an incredible bakery in Los Angeles. Fortunately for me (and a little bit dangerously, too!), their products are carried at Erewhon Market, an all-organic grocery store just down the road from where I live! Although all her cupcakes, cakes, cookies and baked goods are first and foremost absolutely delicious, they're ALSO … [Read more...]
Creamy Roasted Butternut Squash & Sage Penne (Vegan & Gluten Free)
There is something about this recipe (besides that it's so darn tasty!), but I seem to always be cooking it for others. I think because it's super easy to make a huge batch! It really does feed a crowd, and it's a wonderful fall dish! I first debuted this recipe when I was a guest chef/speaker at Google. We made a big batch in their industrial-scale kitchen, and it was a huge hit! This … [Read more...]
