Pine nut parmesan is one of my favorite toppings and is great on many dishes: pastas, salads, pizza, lasagna. It is delicious, nutritious and very easy to make. I love to have a jar of this around to sprinkle on foods. It has a wonderful nutty, cheesy taste – just fabulous! || Read more
I love Caesar salad so it would make sense that I would need to create a fabulous raw vegan version of it and I have to admit that I really love this one and so do many others. This is one of my most requested recipes. This Caesar Salad dressing is remarkably close to the some of the best Caesar dressings I have tried and it’s vegan, raw and very nutritious! I hope you enjoy it just as much!
Chia pudding is a wonderfully easy way to eat chia seeds. It is like a tapioca pudding with an almond-vanilla flavor. Chia doesn’t have a flavor on its own and takes on the flavor of whatever it is put with, in this case almond milk and vanilla. Chia seeds swell up and make you feel full quickly and so are great for weight loss and for endurance, helping you to stay full for a long time. These little seeds have a big nutritional profile and are also go great for your health.

This recipe was a special request. It’s a recipe that we used to make at Toronto Sprouts and it used to be the base layer for our famous ; ) Earth Bread sandwiches. These sandwiches were the biggest hit of the cafe, everyone loved them. & here’s a shout out to all of you underground Toronto raw people who came and ate those sandwiches made with Marie’s famous Earth Bread (which I helped to perfect ; ). But back to the Pate. I love this and make it often to have on crackers. It’s perfect with the Multi Seed Crackers! || Read more
This is a recipe I created years ago and it still has yet to be improved upon. It’s still a favorite and even if I create others (it’s nice for a change) I keep coming back to this one. I made this the day before yesterday and some skeptics around here were delightfully surprised. Well, I was delighted, especially when yesterday, a day after eating the soup I kep getting sporadic compliments on it. “That green soup was great” I kept hearing. It made me feel good to turn people, who didn’t believe a green soup could taste good, onto it. || Read more
Nori is one of the most nutritious foods around so I am always happy when I think of a new way to make it interesting and add to my diet. In this recipe veggies are mixed with an avocado and mayonnaise mix – of course, you know I’m using my hemp oil mayo! So it is super nutritious and loaded with healthy EFA’s. Getting healthy fats into your diet is great. They are not only beneficial to your health but they help clean out the bat fats from your cells and can actually help you lose weight. These veggie nori rolls are delicious and for health, it’s hard to beat a veggie/sea veggie combo like this! || Read more
I love beets! And I love this salad. It is one of my favorite ways to eat beets. This salad is sweet and savory (and for me often a little spicy, with extra cayenne!) It’s a great way to eat beets raw to get their full nutritional power. Apples give this salad its sweetness and celery gives it a crunch. To me it is a simple and wonderful combination. I always make a lot when I make this and it’s one of the easiest salads to make! It is definitely one of my favorites and I hope you enjoy it as well. || Read more
