Vegan Recipes

Seven years of being a vegan and countless pictures of my food put on my Instagram has inspired me to start my own blog with recipes, inspiration, etc.

• Treated myself to a DELICIOUS #vegan donut from The Source - it's purely sweetened with dates, it's #glutenfree and is made with only whole food ingredients. The cacao glaze is the cherry topper! #health #healthy #healthyvegan #vegandonut #donut #soyfree #willowglen • (at The Source Willow Glen)

• Ginger turmeric colada smoothie: 1 c frozen pineapple, 1 frozen banana, 1 cup frozen spinach, 1 small chunk fresh ginger, 1 tsp ground turmeric, 1 tsp maca powder and cold water or coconut water. #health #healthy #healthyvegan #vegan #raw #rawvegan #rawvegansofig #vegansofig #glutenfree #soyfree #smoothie •

• Puffed Rice Cacao Bars - Over medium heat, melt together - 6 T coconut oil, 2 T cacao butter, 5 T #raw cacao powder, 2 T maple syrup and a pinch of salt; stir until all is melted and combined. Turn off heat and stir in 1 to 2 cups puffed rice cereal (Wholefoods) - add more if all the liquid isn't absorbed), ¼ cup cranberries and ¼ cup pistachios. Pour mixture into a parchment lined pan and chill until set. This was the first time making them so I plan to add a bit of coconut butter to make them stick together better. These did crumble, during the cutting process, so I wound up with 60% bars and 40% granola. #soyfree #glutenfree #vegansofig #vegan #health #healthy #healthyvegan •

• #Raw cereal bowl for dinner - one large honey crisp apple cut into chunks, one and a half bananas sliced, raisins, hemp seeds, sprouted vanilla chia granola, raw walnuts and unsweetened almond milk on top. You can add any kind of topping you'd like. Super filling and satisfying! #eatclean #soyfree #glutenfree #superfoods #vegan #veganfood #vegansofig #rawvegan #rawvegansofig #health #healthy #healthyvegan #rawcereal •

• Collard wraps for lunch. Split a leaf in half (cut out the main stem) and made two mini wraps filled with #bitchinsauce (if you haven't had it, you MUST try it in veggie wraps... it's everything!!!), mung bean sprouts, shredded carrot and arugula. You can absolutely add tempeh strips (saute in coconut oil and add turmeric) or any kind of desired #protein and you won't miss the tortilla or flatbread wrap! Super filling and low cal. #cleaneating #raw #rawvegan #vegan #rawvegansofig #soyfree #glutenfree #eatclean #superfoods •

• Made a quick and easy cauliflower fried rice yesterday. Super flavorful and the leftovers are great. Rice - sauté fresh garlic and ginger in a little bit of cold pressed olive oil or coconut oil. Add cauliflower rice and cook for one minute. Add #TraderJoes Green Dragon sauce then toss in shredded carrot and chopped zucchini. Cook until zucchini has softened slightly. Add a few dashes of #raw coconut aminos, salt, pepper and red pepper flakes. For the last two minutes of cooking, add raw slivered almonds and green onion. Serve alone or on top of a heaping pile of arugula. #soyfree #glutenfree #veganfood #vegan #vegansofig #health #healthy •

• Strawberries and chocolate #nicecream - two frozen bananas, two cups frozen strawberries, one cup frozen @kitehillfoods strawberry almond yogurt, one tsp maca powder, half tsp ashwaganda, two tbsp powdered peanut butter, two tbsp #rawvegan cacao powder and water. Topped it with a #vegan #magicshell - melt a tbsp coconut oil, add cacao powder and maple syrup. #vegan #rawvegansofig #vegandessert #veganfood #soyfree #glutenfree #healthy •

• Simple salad with a wonderful and flavorful #homemade tahini dressing. Start with #raw tahini in a mini blender (magic bullet) and add in coconut aminos, garlic powder, purified water and lemon juice; blend til smooth. You can add nutritional yeast and liquid smoke for a smoke cheese flavor dressing. Play around with ingredients but the base four are perfect together on their own. I put the dressing on a pile of romaine, spinach, carrot and dried onion flakes. #vegansofig #vegan #rawvegan #rawvegansofig #health #healthyvegan #veganfood #glutenfree #soyfree •

• Maca berry #nicecream for lunch - two cups frozen mixed berries, one and a half frozen bananas, two tsp maca powder, half tsp ashwaganda powder, one scoop clean protein in chocolate and water.

• Sloppy presentation but so delicious... #organic banana slices with Jem #raw cacao hazelnut butter (basically a #rawvegan Nutella). Quick sweet tooth cure. 🍫🍌 Sprinkle with a little cinnamon, if you so desire. #vegan #veganfood #vegansnack #banana #cleaneating #eatclean #health #healthyvegan •

• Finally grabbed a #Miyoko #vegan cheese... it is SO GOOD! Why did I ever wait so long?! I had a taste with #Marys seed crackers and #SimpleMills crackers. Both were delicious! Can't wait to try the other flavors. #organic #vegansofig #eatclean #cleaneating #veganfood #vegancheese •

• My favorite FOUR ingredient brownies - three overly ripe mashed bananas mixed with half cup cacao powder, half cup pure maple syrup and one cup melted nut butter. Spoon into cupcake pan or cake pan and bake for 45 min at 350. Check with toothpick before removing from the oven. I topped mine with sweet cacao nibs prior to baking. You can add peppermint oil for a thin mint inspired brownie. 🍃🍫 #glutenfree #soyfree #health #healthyvegan #healthy #vegan #veganbaking #veganbrownies #baking #cleaneating #eatclean #veganfood #vegansofig •
