Pickling fruits and vegetables is a super simple and delicious must try recipe.
Jalapeno Cheese Stuffed Poppers with ‘Bacon’
Healthy raw vegan snacks and treats don’t have to be boring. And there’s no reason why you can’t adapt all your favorites. Sure, there are things that just seem impossible, but I’m here to tell you, that’s not true. Every recipe can be adapted. Sure, it might not be exactly the same, but sometimes it’s more about flavor profiles that an exact replica. Take these jalapeno poppers, for instance. Usually breaded, fried and full of animal products, our jalapeno poppers are the beyond healthy alternative to the calorie laden variety we’re used to. I guarantee you won’t miss the old poppers with these yummy little treats. For anyone that worries…

Oatmeal Super Antioxidant Bites
Oatmeal is a quick and easy go to option for a nutritious breakfast, but it can also be the most fun. Pairing deliciously with just about any fruit, seed or nut, you can create your own wonderful combination to fit your lifestyle needs. Oatmeal is a naturally gluten free option that isn’t just for breakfast anymore. The first flavor I experimented with was “Nutella”. The scent of hazelnuts and chocolate transports me to my cousin Vita’s house on Staten Island. She would give us all a spoonful of the creamy spread and we would go outside on the stoop and eat our treat. Our chocolate hazelnut bite is a healthy…
Jicama Crunch ‘French Fries’
My boyfriend’s a bit of a spice fiend and, as a great cook himself, his credo has always been,”More spice, more sauce!”. No matter what I make, I’m waiting for those words that will announce the final decree, “Not spicy enough!” Followed by the children inevitably chiming in like the Von Trapp family in complete agreement and unusual harmony. I think he bribes them to do this but, no matter… When it comes to the jicama fries everyone is in agreement. No more spice is needed. It’s perfect. I didn’t think it needed sauce either-until Melissa said she ate it with some spicy ketchup and it was great! Well, of…
Babaganoush Dip
This raw eggplant tahini dip tastes like babaghanoush and hummus had a baby.
Summer Fun Fruity Ice Pops
Ice pops are quick and easy treats that everybody loves – especially kids. Puree and freeze any fruit or vegetable or even turn your favorite shake into a summertime treat! The combinations are endless! Sometimes we go nuts with flavors here because we have a lot of things growing on the farm and why not get inventive? Never turn up your nose at the basics though, because they’re delicious, too. We have children here so we use those silly ice pop molds, but you can use ice trays instead. Just pop in the blender and liquify for a delicious frozen smoothie when you’re in the mood. Keep in mind that…
Chocolate Lemon Bark with Lavender and Goji
Chocolate makes the world go ‘round. I don’t know about you but for me, chocolate fixes everything. This whole recipe began as an experiment. Raw chocolate is known to have a relatively low melting point due to the high coconut oil content. So, this recipe was more of a search to find the key to a strong raw bark. I think I nailed it! If ever there was an antioxidant bank, this chocolate would be its currency! But antioxidants are not nearly all this tasty treat has to offer. In addition to cacao being a recognized aphrodisiac due to its ability to increase your body’s serotonin and dopamine production, cacao…
Spiced Tropical Fruit Chips
Not everyone who is raw or vegan can turn to nuts as a snack, and those that can, should probably think twice: a lot of alternatives are nut-based too! So what are we to do when we are craving something savory? Turn everything into a chip! So, we did just that. Well, maybe not everything, but damn if we haven’t tried. And what we did we get? Chips that are good for you and taste great too! The main fruits we used to make the chips are: watermelon, pineapple, mango, coconut, strawberries, oranges, bananas, plantains, apples and pears. It seems like we have a tropical theme going on, but, not…
