Pumpkin Spice Latte Overnight Oats

When I was young, my dad would tell me to be “neither for nor against anything.” As a grown woman, I disagree with this statement except when it comes to one thing: pumpkin spice lattes. It seems like these days you either have to be a PSL fanatic or a PSL hater. I am neither….

Turmeric Ginger Energy Balls

It’s officially fall, and here on Long Island we’ve already had some days that have felt more like winter! Now that the temperatures are starting to drop, I’m reminded of the two-part process it takes to keep warm in my little drafty house. Step one includes my cozy fleece robe and ugly slippers that I…

Iced Cacao Matcha Latte

I am obsessed with all things cacao and this recipe is no exception! I’ve been drinking matcha for about a year and a half now (since I quit coffee) and I recently started adding cacao which has been a total game-changer. I won’t lie, I still dabble in coffee from time to time, but I…

The Best Damn Pureed Rutabaga

This post was initially titled plain old “Pureed Rutabaga” but I felt like that just doesn’t do it justice. I’ve changed LIVES with this recipe. Okay, that’s a slight exaggeration, but I have changed many minds about rutabaga with this simple, six-ingredient recipe. Many of you reading probably have never cooked with rutabaga, or eaten…

Cinnamon Sweet Potato Muffin Bites

These Cinnamon Sweet Potato Muffins (or muffin bites if you have a mini cupcake pan) are deliciously moist, naturally sweet, and totally pop-in-your-mouth-able. Totally easy for the non-bakers out there and made with super simple ingredients. I’ve never been much of a baker (savory > sweet any day) but many moons ago, I worked at…

Emerald Energy Elixir

With the weather heating up as we transition into summer, I’ve been craving ice cold drinks in the morning. While I love cold brew coffee or iced tea, I find that I never seem to remember to get them going at night, leaving me with nothing ready to go in the mornings. I love this elixir recipe because it doesn’t require any heating over the stove, meaning I can throw it together in just a few minutes before work in the morning. Throw the ingredients in a blender and you’re done!

Vegan Strawberries & Cream Latte

Hellooo coffee lovers! I love coffee too, but you’ll almost never see me at the coffee shop, and here’s why. As a vegan, I struggle to enjoy drinking coffee out because most places only have soy milk or water-y artificially flavored nut milks as the only non-dairy options. Sure, it’s fun to go out with the girls for a coffee, but the milk options never taste good or blend in coffee, and I have to deal with those weird side-eye looks when the soy milk starts to separate and curdle…(vegans, you know what looks I’m talking about.)

Autumn Apple Whiskey Cocktail

Fall is here and I’ve officially switched over to whiskey as my autumn drink of choice. I recently bought a bottle of Leopold Brothers Apple Whiskey which I have confirmed from the brand is vegan-friendly and has no sugar added! (Beware of yucky apple whiskeys which are made with artificial flavors and no real apples…) So, here it is, my first autumn cocktail of the season. Enjoy!
