< I love hearing Kevin talk about his childhood in Germany, especially the memories he has of Christmas. The traditions his family created during the holidays are so different from my own. The Christmas markets that one could visit for hours, visits from Christkind, children being kept from seeing the Christmas tree until the very…
We made vegan cream cheese and now we’re going to do something awesome with it. Are you ready? It’s one of my favorite dairy-free recipes to date! You’re going to start by making a walnut-based crust. It’s just four ingredients, none of which are dried fruit. As much as I love the no bake crusts…
A dairy-free cream cheese recipe that’s great on your ketogenic diet if you’re dairy-free and wanting the dairy feel. Serve with your favorite low-carb vegetables, boost your fat intake on your ketogenic diet, or smother overtop homemade ketogenic crackers. We’re making cream cheese! And, it’s fabulous if you’re doing keto without the dairy. Eating keto…
Whoop, it’s the last day of the month! I thought this day would never come. Really, I didn’t. After this evening’s hot yin class at Moksha Yoga NDG I will have completed 60 straight days of yoga. Wow, even writing that boggles my mind. I feel like I’ve gone through a meat grinder and been…
I ate this for breakfast yesterday morning, had it again for lunch… and can just about guarantee that I’ll be enjoying it again today. It’s just that good. Now I know what you’re thinking, ‘dairy-free butter chicken? It has to taste off.’ It doesn’t. I had my fair share of authentic butter chicken while I…
Oh boy do I have a treat for us today! I’ve gotten back into making my own nut butters (enjoying a tablespoon or so drizzled over a fresh cut apple as a post yoga snack) and this latest batch is better than any other nut butter I’ve ever made. It’s more satisfying than my Vanilla…
There are so many things that I love about this meal. I’ve wondered if grains were bothersome to my body for awhile but the reaction was so faint, so barely there, that I didn’t pay much attention to it. The key to becoming the healthy, balanced being that we all strive for is listening to…
A girl’s gotta treat herself every once in awhile. Whether it’s a weekend retreat, getting a pedicure, or an elaborate haircut, doing something kind to ourselves makes us feel good, relaxed and special. It doesn’t have to be huge. Heck, I consider taking myself out to tea and reading for a couple of hours in…
The weather’s been strange here. Wait, let me rephrase that… I’m not used to living in a snow-free city in November. The sun is shining, I find myself wearing light jackets, sweaters and I even got away with wearing shorts on Monday. Shorts in November… that’s madness! As a result, today’s cleanse recipe has bright…
Did you like beans when you were a kid? Gosh, I hated them. They were so… granola. I refused to eat them on the basis that my Dad didn’t like them. Same goes with beets. That man hates his beets. Instead, my proteins of choice were things like turkey, kielbasa, fried eggs and; my favorite…
