Blackberry Ginger Vegan Cheesecake – a creamy and delicious dessert.
Oh man you guys, are you ready for this? Blackberry Ginger Vegan Cheesecake. Have you ever tried a vegan cheesecake before? I honestly hadn’t until I started recipe testing this … whoa. I am officially enamored with cashews and they will be making another appearance very, VERY soon! But for now, I cannot try and persuade you enough to try this recipe. Especially for those who are sensitive to dairy (me) and have been having to say No to the offer of cheesecake for oh-so-long…. this is so amazing. My husband loved it, my kiddos loved it and I really loved it. I have a feeling this is the first of many different vegan cheesecakes!

Oatmeal Superfood Breakfast Bowl – the perfect way to start your day is with this nutrient, superfood-packed bowl of warm and healthy goodness.
This bowl is amazing, you guys. All I wanted to do was jazz up my boring bowl of oatmeal. It escalated. Into something freakin amazing. Yes, that is chocolate you see there (where is the rule that says you can’t put chocolate on your oatmeal). Plus, when you have all that other perfectly healthy goodness, what’s wrong with sprinkling a little chocolate-o-lat on top. In fact, I am going to argue that “healthy” includes a little indulgence. It doesn’t have to always be spinach and kale. ….. Okay, that got a little off-topic. My point is, this bowl is my perfect little bowl of healthy goodness, chocolate included, and I am pumped to share it with you guys!
…
Vegan Chocolate Donuts + Pink Beet Coconut Butter Cream Frosting – absolutely delicious version of your favorite breakfast item that is flavored and colored with the wonderfully nutritious and bright beets! 
Okay whoa. Yes, these are vegan. No, I have “become vegan” overnight . Yes, I also provide alternatives in the recipe if you don’t want to use coconut butter in your frosting cause hey, real butter-cream frosting is flipping amazing and if that is what you want on your donut – by all means – do what the heart wants.
All that being said, there are certain times where I love having vegan options and I just feel better when I eat that way (hello – milk allergy here). So, there may be some more experimenting on the blog in the coming months with more vegetarian/vegan options. With a fair amount of delicious recipes featuring all different sort of proteins. Don’t worry!
