Creamy Caramel Sauce

This is the healthiest caramel sauce you'll find that still tastes like a super yummy treat. I love to eat it over my Banana Bundt Cake, or as a delicious fruit dip. The best part is that it's super simple, so I won't overcomplicate it for you...

In a high speed blender, combine your plant milk, dates, vanilla, and soaked cashews (I add my cashews to boiling water for just a few minutes to soak them, nothing fancy or time consuming) until smooth. Chill in the fridge to allow flavours to blend (this is my preference) or serve warm with fruit or drizzled over my Banana Bundt Cake.

Enjoy!

Coconut-Cashew Tiger Ice Cream

Hope you all are enjoying your summer as much as I am! I have been DYING to write this post for a while now! I am absolutely loving this ice cream recipe, and I know that it'll be a hit at your house too. I have always been a fan of Tiger ice cream, and when we went plant based and dairy-free, I wasn't about to accept the fact that I might never taste it again. I have been experimenting for a while now, doing a load of researching and looking for natural food dyes and gut health helpers, as well as ratios of flavours etc. After lots of experimenting, the results are better than I would have expected! The black liquorice ice cream is coloured with food grade, activated charcoal , which is great for gut health, and the orange ice cream is coloured with both sweet potato and a bit of turmeric to add not just colour, but also anti-inflammatory benefits and a little extra hidden goodness! I can now honestly say, this one is a gooder! I will even ...

Sourdough Banana Bread

Mmmm...Banana Bread. Who doesn't love it, am I right?!? Even my child that absolutely hates bananas, LOVES banana bread. And this is the kind of banana bread you really can feel good about eating because it's chuck full of healthiness! Yay!!!! Plus, if you have a sourdough starter and are into getting that yummy, tangy goodness into your gut, this is another recipe to add to your repertoire. If you don't have a starter, there's modifications you can follow in my recipe tips. This recipe is actually modified from my lovely friend Kelsey's Sourdough Banana Bread recipe. She gave me permission to change a few things to make it conducive to my Whole Foods Plant Based lifestyle, so it is now completely free of refined sugar, oil and animal products. So here goes... My kids usually convince me to throw chocolate chips into the banana bread (I actually found some that are both dairy-free and sugar-free, but man are they expens...

"Cheesy" Italian Pizza Buns

These Pizza Buns save my sanity Every. Single. Day. I make them every 2.5 - 3 weeks, and it keeps me from having to make sandwiches every day for my 3 school aged kids. Life Saver, I'm tellin' ya. I've been making them for close to 5 years now, and I'm still going strong, because it really is soooo worth it. I just store them in the freezer, and pop a few out every morning (or put some in the fridge the night before) as needed. For a long time I made these pizza buns with regular all purpose flour, which admittedly works great, and results in larger, puffier Pizza Buns...but as I'm trying to steer clear of refined flour these days, I've been making them lately with my own ground whole wheat (I use hard white wheat). After you've ground your wheat, measure and dump all the dough ingredients into the inner compartment of a bread machine. Select the dough setting, and press start. My machine takes about 2 hours to complete the dough c...
