Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream Recipe (Dairy-free)

This recipe is a follow-up to my Shamrock Shake/Minty Smoothie recipe.  When I made it last week I thought to myself- “With a little tweaking, this could become a fabulous mint chocolate chip ice cream!” So tweak I did! And after just two trials (which the family “suffered” through) I hit upon a version I really like. This is more soft-serve consistency than hard ice cream, but the flavor...

Snowballs

A perfect holiday treat!  The pepperminty coolness  of these pretty little coconut balls make them a wonderful party contribution or holiday gift.  This recipe is a simpler version of a recipe in my raw book.  The raw recipe begins with a whole fresh coconut.  This one uses dried flaked or shredded coconut.  Simple, beautiful and tasty- just what we need at the holidays!         ...

Gluten-free and Dairy-free Cheesecake Recipe

In...

No-Bake Brownies (gluten-free and sugar-free)

These tasty little treats are sweet, dark, rich and oily- as I remember my mom’s brownies to be when I was a kid.  But it’s all the pleasure, none of the guilt with these raw, fruit and nut-based brownies.  Besides being incredibly tasty, they are rich in good oils and calcium!  Definitely the best of both worlds in this case. I always think it is a shame to hear how most people assume that healthy food...
