Soft and Chewy Skittles Sugar Cookies (Vegan)
Happy November everyone! Now that Halloween is over, it’s officially holiday season – at least in my book it is. Before you know it it’ll be Thanksgiving, and shortly after that we’ll be celebrating Christmas! But before we can move past Halloween, we have to do something with all the leftover candy. I don’t know…
Healthy Vegan Date Caramel Dip
What’s your favorite thing about the autumn? Is it the pumpkins, or maybe the leaves? For me, it’s the food, particularly the desserts! There’s something especially comforting about having pumpkin or apple-flavored treats this time of year. When I was a kid, autumn was the only time of year when I could convince my mom…
Vegan Pumpkin Graham Bread
There’s something so wonderful about baking during the autumn. The heat of the oven provides warmth on chilly days, and the desserts in the oven fill the house with a delicious smell, particularly when baking something with cinnamon in it. One of my favorite treats to make when I want the house to have that…
Baked Peach Pop Tarts (Vegan)
For many of us, Pop Tarts represent an important part of our childhood. Some may recall eating Pop Tarts everyday for breakfast, while others, like myself, remember looking forward to them as a rare treat. Either way, Pop Tarts are definitely a nostalgic food. Just the smell of a strawberry Pop Tart reminds me of…
Carrot Cake Sandwich Cookies With Cream Cheese Filling
Carrot cake is one of the most underrated desserts of all time. The fact that it’s made with a vegetable turns a lot of people off, but you’d have to be crazy not to love the taste. Honestly, it’s pretty much exactly the same as spice cake, just with some carrots folded in. I’ve also…
Coconut Berry Acai Bowls
In an ideal world, I would wake up every morning, go to the gym, do my hair and makeup, pick out a cute outfit, and stop at a healthy café for breakfast, all before starting my day. That would be great, wouldn’t it? Unfortunately, real life doesn’t usually allow for this kind of a morning…
Pecan Crescent Cookies (Gluten-Free/Vegan)
Growing up, shortbread cookies always had a special place in my heart. Every time we would fly to Japan, my mom would allow me to buy some Walker’s shortbread at the airport, so I could eat it as a snack on the airplane. I don’t know if you’ve ever had Walker’s shortbread, but it’s not…
Vegan Maple Pecan Cinnamon Rolls (With Maple Cream Cheese Glaze)
Lately, I have been watching a lot of TV, mostly the show Shark Tank. Although I’ve seen nearly every episode already, I’ve been continuously rewatching episodes over and over again. I’m obsessesed with the show, mostly because I hope to journey down the path of entrepreneurship one day. Seeing other entrepreneurs and the businesses they…
Chocolate Cupcakes With Mint Chocolate Chip Buttercream (Vegan/Gluten-Free)
What’s your favorite flavor of ice cream? Is it vanilla? Or chocolate? Or strawberry? Personally, I’ve always been a mint chocolate chip type of gal. Sure, the classics are great, but nothing will ever beat the cool, refreshing taste of peppermint in my mind. Shamrock shakes, candy canes, peppermint patties… I love it all! In…
