vegan nachos at candle cafe west! i love their new restaurant… the space is so beautiful and the space and menu is kind of like a mix of candle 79 and candle cafe (east). 

this banana soft serve is my new obsession. this time I just blended 1 1/2 bananas and topped it with peanut butter and raisins. yummmmm :)

it’s amazing how much more food you can eat for so few calories when you eat healthy :) baby carrots, cauliflower, hummus, and marinara sauce (all for 99 calories… and so filling)

most delicious salad take 2: baby spinach with hearts of palm, artichoke hearts, grape tomatoes, craisins, and dijon/agave/lemon juice dressing

raw hemp bread from choosingraw.com

after seeing gena talk at the NYC vegfest, i’ve been obsessed with looking at the recipes on her blog choosingraw. i finally got around to making this recipe. you can either click the photo to go to her site or the URL for the recipe is: http://www.choosingraw.com/lucky-hemp-bread/

this bread is SO good. even the dough was delicious… i had to keep myself from eating it all before putting it in my dehydrator. i didnt have flax oil so i subbed it for olive oil… and the spices i used were rosemary, thyme, and oregano. i’m so excited to eat this for lunch tomorrow! 

raw banana soft serve with peanut butter and chocolate chips on top— this is so heavenly!

just made myself the most delicious salad for dinner: baby spinach, broccoli, hearts of palm, artichoke hearts, dried fruit, & dijon mustard/agave/lemon juice dressing

chocolate avocado “ice cream”

since i’m so obsessed with the blueberry/banana/avocado ice cream, i wanted to try to make another flavor. this definitely turned out good, but i still think the blueberry/banana/avocado is better (sweeter!)

• 1/2 avocado
• 1/2 banana
• 3/8 cup unsweetened almond milk
• 1 tbs + 2 tsp raw cacao powder
• 1 tbs maple syrup
• cinnamon
• 5 ice cubes

blend it up and top with 

• strawberries
• 1/2 banana
• vegan chocolate chips

ordered black bean empanadas from V Spot off of fresh direct! they are so delicious! the restaurant is in park slope, Brooklyn- I need to check it out!

dehydrating more almond pulp cereal ! this stuff is honestly so good!
