mimi kirk’s dark cacao milkshake (v, gf)
Oh my goodness! Ever since I saw Mimi Kirk’s video demonstration of her very decadent dark cacao milkshake I have been waiting to have two avocados lying around to try it. Today was the day, and with being at home a little under the weather it was the perfect pick-me-up, or rather ‘is’ the perfect pick-me-up – ‘ll be working on this bad boy all day… the photo only shows half of it!
raw vegan sour cream
I realized last night that I owe you a recipe for raw vegan sour cream for my baked butternut squash and red potato bisque recipe! This is also fabulous with raw vegan chili, which makes sense given that this and the chili recipe are both courtesy of Matthew Kenney and that’s exactly what he suggests :)
raspberry and brownie ice cream
Sunday morning… bf at golf… hair treatment in, face mask on… tunes blasting… what to have for breakfast? Ice cream of course! I was planning on having this for dessert last night but was too full after dinner, and then I fell asleep on the couch watching a movie… ooops. I also wanted a good excuse to write a blog because my first Sunday chore is to remove all the aphids from our passion vine and I don’t want to!
cheddar cheeze sauce
I used to love cheese sauce. Love with a capital L… with cauliflower, with lasagna, with a spoon and with tuna baked on a croissant topped with paprika. My brother was my cheese sauce partner in crime. The best bonding we ever did as teenagers was over cheese sauce.
Once I went vegan, I never thought I’d be able to eat cheese sauce again. Devastated.
raw vegan ‘white chocolate’ macaroons
I have been meaning to post this recipe since MAY! Oh dear, I did drop the ball on this one, but a big thank you to my FB friend Linda who requested the recipe yesterday after seeing the pic… thank goodness someone is keeping me honest.These are great to have on hand in a pinch… or even just to satisfy sweet tooth cravings.
And may be I’m dreaming, but I actually think they have an aftertaste reminiscent of white chocolate:)
raw vegan brownies: sans dehydrator!
I was supposed to be having an friend over for dinner tonight so I made a batch of my latest most favorite recipe in the world – butternut squash and red potato bisque and an experimental wfpb vegetable bake that needs refining before I post the recipe (she couldn’t make it in the end, which might have been just as well given the quality of the bake!). I also threw together a raw dessert in a last ditch attempt to not entirely abandon raw food – and I could never, ever justify cooking a dessert when raw desserts are just soooo good!
butternut squash and red potato bisque
This was an unexpectedly spectacular outcome of a big cooked vegan experiment last night in an effort to use up some of the vegetables I got from my Marshall’s Fenway Farm Stand CSA in the last week or so. It was also the result of a little competition I was having with my mother that she has no idea I was conducting…! Read More
peach and kiwi pulp
This drink turned out so much better than the juice I intended it to be… it came out all chunky and smoothie-like and turned out to be a very satisfying breakfast yesterday in lieu of the buckwheat porridge that was a total disaster even though I followed the recipe to the letter! I will work on the porridge though, I think it has potential…
raw falafel, no beans!
I love these falafel patties so they were the perfect thing to make yesterday to kick start a week of all raw food – something I haven’t done for an embarrassingly long time, and definitely something I need to do more often – I miss it and I just don’t feel as good as I used to.
These are a little sentimental for me – first made for me by my very good friend Brooke. Whenever I make them I am reminded of her, which is useful now she has moved very far away. Miss you Brooke!!
