DRINKS: Coconut oil coffee
That's right, my level of love for coconut oil has reached a new level...

I'd read … Continue reading DRINKS: Coconut oil coffee
SWEET TREATS: Chocolate pudding
Chocolate pudding? But you're vegan, you can't eat chocolate pudding! HELL YEH I CAN.

Chocolate makes me very happy but now that I'm eating a plant based diet, it can be tough to get my chocolate fix these days and even when I do, I get sad that everything is packed full of sugar.

SWEET TREATS: Mint, chocolate ice cream
A while back I made some vegan friendly ice cream that was inspired by a Gwyneth Paltrow recipe for sweet and salty ice cream.

MEAL: Roasted tomato and pepper soup
I have been as sick as a dog. Well, I've had tonsillitis AGAIN!
