What I eat and don’t eat – diet update

Hey loves! I’m in the mood to write a more light-hearted, fun post than the last couple of recent ones. It’s been a while since I really talked FOOD on the blog so I thought I’d jump into it today and let you know how I’m eating these days, what has evolved and changed (I’m still high carb/low fat raw vegan these days, just not totally raw). There are also new people on the blog and I know whenever I first start reading about someone, I’m always curious to know  more personal details of their life like what their interests are, …

My new YouTube channel! Raw/vegan wellness

Hi loves, I know an update is definitely due, especially with moving — there’s a reason why that update’s been delayed and that is because I’ve been working on creating my new YouTube channel! This is something I’ve been wanting to do for a long time… in fact, if you’ve been reading the blog for a while you probably heard me mention it on here before. I’m happy to share that the channel has finaaallly been created! While traveling in Florida I did a bunch of filming vlog-style. This was insanely fun and I hope to keep on creating more videos! …

Raw vegan chocolate brownie smoothie bowl

Rarely do I eat chocolate these days but I can’t help it… Valentine’s Day is one of those holidays that makes me want something chocolatey and decadent! Carob is a nice chocolate substitute and all but it just doesn’t compare to the real thing. In honour of Valentine’s Day, I’m posting my favourite way to eat chocolate – which is in a giant smoothie bowl like this, a rich mess of flavours and textures all melding together. This one is chocolate ice cream topped with fudge brownie balls, drizzled chocolate sauce, raspberries and crushed brazil nuts. OMG – eating this was …

Eating raw vegan in Belize

One thing I want to start doing more is blogging on eating raw vegan in different parts of the world. The reason being, whenever I travel somewhere new I’m always doing a ton of research on how to eat healthy there, how I can access fruit, what kinds of restaurants I might be able to eat at, what areas are the most vegan-friendly, food safety conditions, and any other useful info that I might need to know. This takes a lot of time and often there is just no real info out there from raw vegan travelers. Vegan travelers, yes. But …

Vegan potato crust pizza (fat free, grain free + mostly raw)

Sometimes I get asked if there’s any “normal” foods I miss eating, from before my big diet change. Pizza would have to be at the top of that list. Truthfully I have not been able to find any raw vegan pizza recipes that taste even remotely close to the real thing. Don’t get me wrong, there are amazing raw vegan pizzas out there. I have tried many and have gone nuts over pretty much all of them! And I think it’s incredible that raw vegan pizza even exists in the world, filling that comfort food void for many a raw vegan. …

Christmas bliss ball truffles (raw, vegan, lowfat)

I’m dreaming of a raw vegan Christmas… 😉 It’s my favourite holiday and the season of festive desserts! Usually I follow my tradition of making Christmas chocolate bark at this time of year but I had to come up with a different plan now that my diet has changed. What could I make that I would love but could also bring to Christmas dinner for a lot of other guests? I almost went with raw chocolate brownies but decided on bliss ball truffles instead – the perfect finger food to snack on! These taste like a decadent fudgy brownie, in bite-sized …
