Dairy-free Skor Bar Cups

Dairy-free Skor Bar Cups

It didn’t feel right ending Health-oween without paying tribute to the Skor bar. Just like the vegan Twix bar we enjoyed last week, I wanted to make a Skor treat that I could feel better about eating. Heck, I just wanted to be able to taste a Skor bar again. And taste I did… again,…

Devilish Eggs

Devilish Eggs

No healthy Halloween recipe collection would be complete without an appetizer, right? It was a toss up between bat wings, octopus, and witch fingers. In the end, the idea of making evil deviled eggs won me over. I think I put the mustaches on the wrong way though. They should be pointed down not up and…

No Bake Vegan Twix Bars

No Bake Vegan Twix Bars

I gotta say, I was a sight for sore eyes yesterday. I had chocolate behind my ears, my house smelled like bacon, there was grease all down my shirt and I was hobbling around with a slipper missing off my left foot. It wasn’t pretty. But it was all in the name of the Twix…

Can’t Beet This Smoothie

October and November are the perfect months to detox our bodies in preparation for the long Winter ahead. There’s a 3 week cleanse program going on right now with whole food eats and while I haven’t been following it fully due to all the Halloween treats, I’ve been upping my fresh juice and smoothie intake…

Stuffed Jack-o’-Lanterns

Stuffed Jack-o’-Lanterns

I remember getting absolutely frantic the day of Halloween. Scratch that… I was frantic the days leading up to EVERY holiday. Besides making my costumes, I would consistently devise a Halloween treat plan that would help our crew (usually my best friend, my sister and her best friend) tackle each street with precision. No house…

Yoga challenge. Are you doing it with us? Can I be honest? It’s hard. Not that I want that to deter you… but this is harder than I thought it was going to be. My body hurts, my heart can’t take it at times, and I’m sick of washing my yoga gear every gosh-darn day….

Witches Brew Breakfast Pudding

Witches Brew Breakfast Pudding

I had a history of choosing the same Halloween costume year after year when I was a kid. Did you, too? I was a princess, then a queen, Cinderella… well, you get the idea. Royalty was kind of my thing. My sister on the other hand liked to be scary characters a witch, goblin, ghost,…

Sweet Potato and Fennel Curry

India has been on my brain for the past few weeks. It feels like ages since I got on that plane and headed to Mumbai earlier this year. The waterfalls, the beach, the ashram… I returned home with a strong sense of self, a free soul and a happy heart. Maybe this yearning has been…

Vegan Caramel Popcorn Ant Hills

Vegan Caramel Popcorn Ant Hills

Growing up in a small town had it’s benefits. #1 – We knew everyone. #2 – When it came time for Halloween and we received homemade treats while trick-or-treating, we were allowed to eat them. I remember the first Halloween we spent in the big city. Mom and Dad decided to move us ON Halloween…

Curried Cauliflower & Apple Soup with Roasted Chickpeas and Homemade Curry Powder

*long breath in* Wow, the title of today’s post is a long one, right? There’s just so much goodness happening today that I had a hard time deciding which recipes to include and which not to… so I just included all three. I was a recipe making machine yesterday afternoon and for good reason, too….
