Collard Green Wraps
I don’t always eat raw, but when I do, I really strive for it to be as tasty as possible. In order to do this, I like to combine sauces like pesto and cashew sour cream, and different flavored and colored vegetables like fresh herbs, red cabbage, and the like. In this recipe for collard […]
Cashew Cheese
I’m a huge cheese lover. When I was growing up, we’d have a cheese plate a least once a week, and my typical day didn’t go by without a slice of some kind of cheddar, mozzarella, or even brie. But in my early twenties, I started to notice some issues with cheese. I’m not lactose […]
White Bean Hummus

Quinoa Veggie Sushi
I’ve always been intimidated by home made sushi. I didn’t have a rice maker, I didn’t have the bamboo rolling mat. So many excuses, none of them particularly viable. One day, I got over myself, and decided to experiment. I had nori sheets, quinoa, sweet potatoes, mangoes, and avocados. I was able to create a […]
