Hi everyone! Hope this post finds you well and you are ending off the year well. I absolutely love November and December because it's a time for me to enjoy family gatherings, cook yummy comfort foods and prepare to knock next year off it's socks. Can you believe that we are almost in 2020??? I am so excited to share this recipe with all of you today! I love desserts. I also call all desserts - "pudding", which confuses all of my American friends because apparently those two words are ... View the Post

Açai Bowl Recipe

You know when you try something new for the first time and literally can't believe you hadn't tried it before because it instantly becomes your favorite dish of all time? Well that's what happened when I tried a Spoons Açai bowl for the first time. I kept buying them for a little while but at $12 a pop it's not a cheap meal for 1. So....I did what I do best and I tried a million recipes till I loved it enough to make it for a million more days haha. No seriously, if you follow me on ... View the Post

French Toast Recipe

Thanks to my Instagram Husband for pouring the maple syrup! I've loved breakfast my whole life and now that I've incorporated eggs (from my mom's friend who has chickens in her backyard) I'm excited on a whole new level. From omelettes to a good old fried eggs on toast, the options are endless. I'm releasing an eBook soon called "Healthy Kids Snacks" and in that will be a recipe of mine that I use ALL THE TIME for breakfast and snacks for Oliver. It's so easy because you can freeze the ...

Rooibos Cran-Peach Cooler

Say hello to summer with these refreshing 2 ingredient coolers. My son, Oliver, didn't have juice until he got sick when he was about 15 months old and the only thing he would drink was my Rooibos Cran-Peach Cooler. I say my cooler but the recipe actually came from my mom who tasted something similar at a friend's house in South Africa when she was visiting, and decided to make her own version when she got back to the States. So, thanks mom for letting me share this delicious recipe here on ... View the Post

Easy Dinner Recipes: Veggie Pizza with Vegan cheese drizzle

I didn't have pizza for quite a while because I couldn't find a good vegan cheese substitute but what's a Friday night-in without a pizza and a movie? Earlier this year my mom bought some Trader Joe's Vegan Mozzarella shreds and I finally found an option that I enjoyed in small amounts. So, I either use the Trader Joe's Vegan Mozzarella shreds or I make my own cheesy drizzle that takes 2 minutes. The recipe is included below. My hubby and I are busy watching the X-Men series in ...

Vegan Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups

I'm so excited with how easy this recipe turned out and how delicious these homemade vegan peanut butter cups are. Come follow me on Instagram and Pinterest I don't have a light and bright kitchen so I photograph all my food outside on my countertop, but of course it's been raining in Charlotte this whole year so far so it has not been easy. However, in between showers I managed to race outside and nibble on these chocolate peanut butter cups while trying to get a few good photos. The ... View the Post

Ikea Hack: Toddler Kitchen Helper Stool

I knew I wanted a "kitchen helper stool" or "toddler learning tower stool" (whatever you want to call it) but the only ones I could find here in the States were so expensive. They look great quality, like this one from Little Partners, but just out of our budget. Like ever. So as I was scrolling through Pinterest, as one does, I saw Sina from Happy Grey Lucky had instructions for an Ikea hack and I sent Daniel the link straight away. I am not handy at all, and neither is he (he will be the ... View the Post

Vegan Vegetable Lasagna

Best Vegetable Lasagna My mom told me that the secret to our family lasagna recipe being so good is that we use white sauce. Apparently here in the States, the white sauce isn't commonly found in lasagna recipes. No wonder people always love ours! The creamy white sauce adds so much flavor to an already delicious dish so don't skip this step. This dish takes an hour to prepare and 35 minutes to cook. It's quite an investment, so it's definitely not in my "Easy Vegan Dinner" collection but ... View the Post

Vegan Berry Protein Smoothie

I'm not lying when I say that the forecast for this week is rain, cloudy, rain and more rain. Also cold. So most people would look at that and NOT post a smoothie recipe but I miss my smoothies and like to have them every now again in the winter to boost our immune system. This is my favorite smoothie recipe that I know off by heart and just throw all the ingredients into the mixer and it's done in 5 minutes or less. It's an adaption of our Berry Antioxidant Smoothie and the addition of ... View the Post

Easy Dinner Recipes: Vegan Split Pea + Sweet Potato Soup

Split Pea + Sweet Potato Soup My younger brother moved to the states at the end of last year and he has always loved making up his own recipes in the kitchen. I only have one brother, just to clarify, because I guess saying "younger brother" makes it seem like I might have an older brother and I don't. Just saying. Anyway, he came home from Publix the other day with some split peas and made us some soup. It was delicious so I knew I was going to try my own version because Oliver eats soup so ... View the Post
