I’m calling this both a cheesecake and a pie for lack of a closer dessert relative. It’s got all the elements of a cheesecake. Minus the dairy. Rich. Decadent. Creamy. Yum. That said, it doesn’t have the tang that a cheesecake has. More like a creamy pumpkin pie I guess? But dang is it delicious. Kinda odd to preface a dessert recipe like this but I just want to convey exactly what this dish is all about. So. Disclaimer: If you want a true [vegan] cheesecake, this is the recipe for you. It’ll wow vegans… Read more >

This is an attempt at a “what I ate” full day of food. I think I got everything. Cantaloupe. With this, I get credit for vitamin C, vitamin E, riboflavin, folic acid, & B vitamins…it satisfies both a fruit and leafy green requirement as per What To Expect. Efficiency in my nutrition – I like it! For breakfast we were out of iced tea AND eggs. Basically a mini disaster. I made decaf tea in as little water as possible and cooled it down to room temp with a ton of almond milk. It… Read more >

Contrary to what my posting may indicate, I do still work! Sorry I’ve been withholding my packed eats from you guys. I have only been taking pictures of 50% of them, though, so here’s what I’ve got. Hope this helps you with some ideas! Oats. Veggies. Pretzels. Sabra hummus (x2). Lasagna (leftover). Cookies. Apple. Candied ginger. Oat preference as of late: nuts, cinnamon & dried cherries. When the cherries soak overnight they plump up to get to be the size of full cherries. It’s pretty cool. Now that we are meal planning, my real real… Read more >

After a long work week, Kyle and I soaked up the weekend like two sponges. And of course, I’m only just now getting around to blogging about it. So pathetic. But let’s just pretend this is timely and the weekend was yesterday, okay? Starting with a Friday date night at Whole Foods. He got off work before I did so he walked from our apt and met me there once I peaced out of the hospital. I had salad bar ADD, but eventually got myself squared away with a monster salad – complete… Read more >

Just a typical morning bowl of oatmeal. The weird part about this breakfast was how I picked around the nuts. I don’t know why, but I wasn’t in to them this morning. The cinnamon and maple syrup were all the topping I needed. After breakfast I set to work on mega errands. Our laundry needed to be done immediately (our clothes reeked of smoke from our weekend away). On top of that we had dirty dishes, an empty fridge, a thirsty tomato plant, and much much more. To do list, game on. Eventually, I… Read more >
