RECIPE: Tahini Mocha
It’s no secret that I am obsessed with tahini. The first recipe I ever published here, many years ago, did indeed use tahini. I even joke with people that if I ever write a book, it will be all about tahini! Funny story….have you ever gotten so excited about something such as a book, a…

RECIPE: Organic Hemp & Green Juice
We’ve been doing really well about drinking at least one green beverage a day – whether in smoothie form or juice. Today, I’m sharing one of my latest favorite juice combos! Lately, Willow requests green juice, but since she likes hers on the sweeter side, I added some Granny Smith apples to cut back on…

RECIPE: Rich, Creamy (Vegan) Hot Cocoa
After a day of sledding or snow fort building, there was nothing better than warming up to a mug of cocoa. For me, every time I sip on hot cocoa, I’m flooded with childhood memories of playing out in the snow and cold with my brother – and we’d come inside to hot cocoa with…

RECIPE: Iced Hazelnut Latte with Toffee Sauce Drizzle

We’ve been buying this brand from Natural Grocers, but I know you…

RECIPE: Iced Tahini Mocha with Maple-Tahini-Cacao Sauce AND a GIVEAWAY
I warned you that there were going to be more tahini recipes! This one has even been approved by one of my dear friends, Diana, who hasn’t quite hopped over to the tahini lovers side. When tahini is paired with coffee AND chocolate, you’ve got a dangerous combo. If you follow me on Instagram, you already got…

RECIPE: Cacao Crunch Smoothie
Often times I just throw things in the Vitamix and don’t pay any attention to measurements…leaving me guessing when I try to replicate a delicious smoothie. Several weeks ago, I created a chocolate one that received quite a few ‘likes’ on Instagram, so I thought I would share the recipe here, for those who don’t…

Recipe: Berry Protein Smoothie & Homemade Granola
We start every morning off with a superfood smoothie – it’s a great way to sneak in a whole bunch nutrient rich foods, especially when you’ve got a toddler. Our kiddo is on a green strike – she refuses all things green, but hidden in a smoothie, she’ll suck it down! Silly girl, I hope…

RECIPE: Blue Sunset
Nothing says summer like a cold fruit smoothie. This morning I decided to try my hand at making a Blue Sunset…I’ve seen many variations of this drink – some using oranges, strawberries, spinach, coconut oil and much, much, more. Here’s what I came up with: Blue Sunset: 2 cups pineapple chunks 1 cup diced mango…
