Peanut Butter Fudge Swirl Cheesecake {gluten free, vegan}
One of the most common questions I get is “Where do you get your protein?”. Generally I rattle off the usual vegan protein list (tofu, quinoa, nuts, seeds, legumes, whole grains, leafy greens, you know… the places where all those muscle-y animals like cows and gorillas get their proteins.

Dark Chocolate Fudge Filled Brownie Cookies
This recipe started out as a challenge from my husband. For a welder/construction worker it can be very difficult to find healthy foods near job sites. In addition, there is the constant temptation of junky snack foods at convenience stores, etc. To help him out, I often ask him what junk foods he finds himself […]

My diploma cover has been sitting empty for about two months, and now I finally feel like I have actually graduated. It’s […]

The other night she had a bowl of Easy Chocolate Pudding for dinner (along with a bowl of mixed veggies and […]

I love to have chocolate treats on hand, especially during this time of year when the stores are full of chocolate hearts and truffles tempting me away from my healthful ways. Chocolate pudding is one of my favorite chocolate craving fixers, but it can be surprisingly difficult to make a […]
