Almond Alfredo

You know how sometimes you have memories from your childhood that make you want to eat certain things? For me, that's Alfredo. I've been vegan for 7(ish?) years and never once have I craved cheese, but I do have a soft spot for Alfredo.

Almond Milk

About 6 years ago, just before I was fully into this whole "health" deal, I stumbled upon a restaurant in Oklahoma City selling homemade almond milk.

Peanut Butter Cookies

Growing up I was allergic to peanut butter, or so I was told. My dad and sister are DEATHLY allergic to peanut butter, so the doctors just assumed I was and therefore, I was never allowed to eat it.

Rosemary Cauliflower Soup

This soup is a take on my butternut squash soup, but made with cauliflower instead. It is fabulous! I actually think I might like it better than the butternut squash... and that is saying something.

Almond Butter Brownies

I'm more tempted to call these cookies rather than brownies, but to be honest they are so good I don't really care about the name! I'll go with a cookie-brownie :)

No-Pumpkin Pie

Growing up, pumpkin pie was the ONLY thing I cared about during Thanksgiving. Forget the casseroles, the turkey, and anything else that might have been on the table, I went straight to the pie.

Walnut Skillet Brownie

This very well may be the absolute BEST dessert I have ever made, and no I am not exaggerating. It's rich, it's gooey, and is likely something I would take a bite of and think, "This has got to be so bad for me." But ya know what? IT'S NOT.

Lentil Chili

Though I love smoothies and salads, I also love soups and stews when the temperatures drop. When I first switched to a plant-based diet several years ago, this lentil chili is what got me through the winter, and it's safe to say that it is still one of my favorite Fall staples.

Cashew "Ranch" Dressing

I could pretty much live off of raw food. Smoothies, salads, and raw snacks have always been my jam - BUT, this dressing is a game changer.
