Hello dear readers! I have a special treat for you today....literally! A dairy-free, grain-free "cheesecake" made from my Soured Coconut Cream recipe. This no-bake recipe is so simple to make and will delight your friends and family.

Do you ever crave that rich, creamy taste of sour cream but are sensitive to dairy products?

I wanted to share this scrumptious holiday kale salad with you. It makes the perfect potluck dish to share with friends and family this season. The combination of the orange zest, juice, cinnamon, pecans, and dried cranberries makes this dish quite festive! My children eat this salad by the bowlful!

The other morning I slept in and came downstairs to see my oldest daughter, Lily, put a pan of something into the freezer. I asked her what she made and she responded: "frozen coconut banana cream bars." We all enjoyed them as a treat throughout the day.

We have a garden full of vibrant, tender collard greens right now—lush, green leaves that inspired me to create these nourishing raw wraps filled with pumpkin seed pâté and served with a gingery cashew butter dipping sauce. These wraps are a refreshing, plant-powered meal that’s naturally grain-free, gluten-free, and full of flavor and texture. Even my children enjoy them! Well—my 8-year-old thinks they're just okay, and the littlest one prefers to nibble on the pâté and cucumber strips, but the rest of the gang devours them with delight.

Happy Holidays! I created this yummy gluten-free, vegan cinnamon roll recipe about a month ago and have been looking forward to posting it here for you all! It makes a fun treat to share with family and friends around the holidays.

There’s something so grounding about a warm winter pilaf—the way the grains softly steam, the greens wilt just enough, and those little pops of cranberry brighten every bite. This one has been a favorite in my kitchen for years. It’s hearty, deeply nourishing, and full of the vibrant plant compounds we naturally crave during the colder months. This pilaf makes a beautiful addition to any holiday table, and it also works wonderfully as a gluten-free stuffing for turkey or roasted vegetables. If you want an extra layer of richness, scatter in a handful of chopped, roasted hazelnuts just before serving. They bring such a lovely crunch.

If there was one thing you could do right now to improve your health would you do it? Eating raw cruciferous vegetables daily might be our saving grace in this increasingly toxic world. Cruciferous vegetables will upregulate or "produce" the enzymes your body needs to eliminate environmental toxins and properly metabolize estrogen.

After my last post I received many requests to share a pumpkin hazelnut muffin recipe that was also egg-free. As many of you know, replacing eggs in grain-free baked treats can be quite a challenge.

This is another guest post by my 10-year old daughter, Lily (I helped her format the recipe). For those of you who have been reading this blog for a while you might remember the first guest post she did on Homemade Seaweed Snacks.
