Vegan Cauliflower Pizza

I LOVE pizza. It is just the best food on the planet. If I could eat it everyday, I would. But pizza is SO bad for you.

So, I decided I had to make one up myself. … Continue reading Vegan Cauliflower Pizza

Raw Gingerbread Cupcakes with Lemon Icing

Cupcakes are some of my favorite desserts in the world. Unfortunately, a traditional cupcake is loaded with saturated fat, sugars and processed ingredients.

I try to live by the Raw Till 4 … Continue reading “Cheezy” Baked Potato Chip Tacos!

Split Pea Hummus

I love making hummus out of any bean that is available to me, and I also LOVE the taste of split peas. Split peas are already creamy with an excellent strong flavor on their own, so I didn't find the need to make this hummus any other flavor except enhancing what split peas already have. This … Continue reading Split Pea Hummus
