YOUR DOSE OF NUTRIENT-RICH PLANT-FORWARD DISHES
Designed to provide your body with the essential nutrients it craves and redefine the art of mindful eating. Celebrate both flavor and nutrition with wholesome recipes that are as delectable as they are beneficial.
WELLNESS LATTE ESSENTIALS
CLASSIC NUT & SEED MYLK
This is my classic base formula for making all my non-dairy milks. I like to make a fresh batch on Sunday to enjoy throughout the week and will typically rotate between macadamia, pistachio, or walnut, but will occasionally do a brazil nut or pumpkin seed milk.
PLANT-BASED CHEESE BASICS
These are staples in my kitchen and I’ll frequently reference them in my other recipes. I personally don't like the taste of a lot of store-bought imitation "cheeses" so prefer to make my own where I can use higher quality ingredients and avoid preservatives or additives.

ROSE-INFUSED DATE & WALNUT PROTEIN MUFFINS
If you’ve been following me for a while, you know I like to make a batch of fitness-friendly protein muffins to enjoy throughout the week as a convenient on-the-go, pre-portioned snack. These aren’t intended to replicate an indulgent dessert-like muffin but, instead, fill the place of something like a protein bar for me. While they won't mimic the typical bakery muffin, they offer a lighter option, rich in plant-based protein and free from heavy ingredients found in traditional muffins.
RED BEET ROOT WELLNESS LATTE
Beets aren’t one of my favorite foods, but this is one of my favorite ways to get a small dose in. This latte combo packs in several benefits — Beet root powder helps lower blood pressure, improve circulation, and enhance athletic performance. Mesquite is mineral rich, contains prebiotic fiber, and helps stabilize blood sugar levels. Maca supports hormonal balance, boosts energy, and enhances…
HOMEMADE VALENTINE’S CHOCOLATE BARS
Making your own chocolate bars is much simpler than you might think and I always have so much fun customizing the toppings for each season. They also make a perfect little festive gift to pass out — just wrap the finished product in cellophane bags with a cute ribbon & note!
PINK HEART RICOTTA THYME RAVIOLI
I love to make these every year around Valentine’s Day. They get their pink hue from beet root powder, but trust me, it doesn’t impart any flavor so don’t worry if you’re not a fan of beets. Feel free to customize the filling with butternut squash, pumpkin, mushrooms, spinach, pesto, etc.
CHOCOLATE COVERED PUFFED MILLET CRISPY TREATS
These are a healthier take on the classic rice krispy treat. They contain whole grains and fiber from the puffed millet & brown rice cereal, healthy fats from the cashew butter & coconut butter, antioxidant-rich cacao butter, minerals like manganese & zinc from the maple syrup and mood-boosting benefits from the dark chocolate.
PLANT-BASED CHEESE BASICS
These are staples in my kitchen and I’ll frequently reference them in my other recipes. I personally don't like the taste of a lot of store-bought imitation "cheeses" so prefer to make my own where I can use higher quality ingredients and avoid preservatives or additives. I sprinkle this cashew parmesan on pasta, salads, roasted vegetables, or any dish where you would typically…
