My Food Philosophy

It starts with realizing your connection with the Earth. The earth will always provide you with the food that you need. Whole food in its purest form. Not chemically laden formulas disguised as food. You will begin to appreciate the people who grow the food. You will not settle for a fruit or vegetable that was grown in the most clean way possible. Because, you see, the energy from these foods becomes a part of you when you ingest it. It's all about conscious eating. Being aware of not only what you put in your mouth but where is comes from. I choose to live a plant based and gluten free lifestyle. This blog is an evolution of sorts. It starts with my dedication to using whole foods and moves into my dedication to a plant based cooking lifestyle. All those recipes you didn't think you could have eating the way I do....Bon Appetite

Valentine's Day Sweets for my Sweeties!

Valentines day isn't always easy when you can't eat dairy. No milk chocolate hearts or chocolate covered anything. The kids have been begging me to make apple fritters for a while now so I figured that was next best idea. And I finally found a good recipe without too much sugar but that still was sweet.

Apple Fritter Donut Balls
3/4 cup garbanzo bean/ millet flour mix
1/8 cup coconut sugar
1/2 tsp salt
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp. Cinnamon
1 cup chopped apples
1 egg, egg substitute, or chia egg
1/3 cup milk
1 tsp vanilla

Mix wet ingredient and dry ingredients separately. Combine them together. Add enough coconut oil to a small saucepan until it is 3/4 of an inch high when melted. Drop by spoonful in hot oil and fry about a minute on each side. Upon draining, roll in coconut sugar. Serve immediately or warm in 300 degree oven for 10 minutes.


Kids loved them!! We loved them!! Success!!

After a nice Mexican lunch out with my hubby we returned home to  daiya cheezecake with the kids. I thawed out some raspberries and coco whip to top it off. It tasted beyond my expectations for dairy free gluten free prepackaged desserts. It was almost decadent. A nice way to end the day on a sweet note.
