Quinoa Chickpea Burgers

Well, after 2 unsuccessful attempts at making vegan burgers, I finally mastered it! And I couldn't say what was the key ingredient, though I did learn that adding too many chunky vegetables in them will cause the burgers to fall apart easier. So for this, I will add some optional additions to the burgers, but … Continue reading Quinoa Chickpea Burgers

Peach Carrot Broccoli Smoothie

Remember that Pumpkin Seed Nut Milk I made awhile back? Well, turns out that milk is a GREAT smoothie milk!

So, if you are wanting to make pumpkin seed … Continue reading Peach Carrot Broccoli Smoothie

Pumpkin Seed Milk

Let me start this off by saying that if ANYONE tells you "<insert name> seed/nut milk doesn't taste good, don't try it," do not listen. I heard from a friend of mine (who shall remain nameless) that they once tried making pumpkin seed milk, it tasted horrible and I should never try it. Naturally, this … Continue reading Pumpkin Seed Milk

Macadamia Nut Milk

I am typically so into drinking my Walnut Coconut Milk, that I tend to forget that there are so many other nut milks I haven't even tried making yet! Well, last week was the week I finally saved some of my macadamia nuts to make milk instead of eating them all! Like walnuts, macadamias contain … Continue reading Macadamia Nut Milk

It's a great way to use the excess coconut flakes to make a tasty, amazing snack, … Continue reading Coconut Vanilla Macaroons
