These orange spiced truffles are another recipe I created when I first started the raw food diet. When I initially started going raw the idea of making desserts overwhelmed me. I had a complete creative block trying to make them. Understanding new ingredients and their measurements, which nuts make a good base or what flavors […]
Ginger Apple Pumpkin Spice Smoothie
Autumn is such a delightful time of year. I love the changing of the weather, the changing of the colors of the leaves and I really love fall fruit. One of my favorite colors is orange, it’s so rich and earthy so when I’m grocery shopping my eyes naturally drift to such colors of fruit. […]
Raw Vegan Cranberry Pecan Relish
Cranberries finally arrived in the stores. That’s like my official sign that fall is in full effect and I love it! Unfortunately here in Los Angeles the weather usually gives very little sign of autumn but when I see pumpkins, pomegranates, cranberries and persimmons starting to be stocked on the shelves I still get that […]
Raw Vegan Pumpkin Spice Latte
This pumpkin latte is creamy, smooth, and full of aromatic spice. It’s the taste of fall flavors with pumpkin, cinnamon and warming spices like ginger. When the cool autumn air begins to set in what could be more comforting than a warm spiced latte? And what says autumn better than pumpkin?? Sipping on this pumpkin […]
No Bake Gluten-Free Peach Cobbler
With all the wonderful fruit that’s in season now, there’s such a lovely variety for making desserts. One of my favorites has always been cobbler. The peaches from the farmers’ market this year seem to be exceptionally sweet, maybe it’s just because I have missed them all year so it’s just so good to bite […]

When I started healing my fibromyalgia with raw foods, the first thing I cut out was refined processed sugar […]
Spiced Chunky Cranberry Applesauce
This week I found myself with a large bag of apples not knowing what to do with them. Usually I’ll juice them, add them to salads or as a snack I just adore them cut up with almond butter. But, today I decided to do something different. I felt like making applesauce. I’ve always found […]
Thirst Quenching Mint Lemonade Whip
Lemons are a staple in my kitchen. I use them for so many things! For salad dressings, to put in my water to some flavor and their cleansing benefits, I like to add it into my vegetable smoothies and juices to give them a tangy kick. In the summertime one of my all time favorite […]
Real Fruit Popsicles With No Added Sugar
This week here in the Valley (Los Angeles) it was as hot as 108 degrees! This is weather we normally have in July, kinda crazy. So I was desperate to find something to cool down with. I definitely was enjoying a lot of watermelon but I was craving fruit popsicles. When I was young I […]

I’m so excited to share these gingerbread truffles with you! I have to say they came out ah-mazing, if I do say so myself. 🙂 I’ve been working in the kitchen tweaking this recipe over and over again until they came out just right. I even brought them into work with me to have all […]
