overnight creamy cashew chocolate shake

One of my not-so-guilty pleasures is a chocolate shake. I love to do a dairy-free version so it fits best with my plant-based eating approach. Though I make shakes many ways, this overnight creamy cashew chocolate shake is my new favorite. And let’s face it … anything chilly is welcome in our way-too-hot summer that we’re having right now. Luckily, there’s no “giving up” scrumptiousness, creaminess, or anything else with this shake recipe. It’s one of my answers for the definition of “yum!”

no-cook plant-based cocoa mousse

If you want a really chocolatey dessert (or snack) that makes you feel really healthy, this no-cook plant-based cocoa mousse is my favorite pick right now. It’s based on chickpeas which provide so much nutritional goodness along with velvety creaminess. And the sweetness in this mousse is from dates—making it a no-sugar-added treat. The result is 100% yum.

fudgy miso brownies with sea salt

All the way from Ireland, my friend John sent me a recipe for salted miso brownies to try. Of course, I needed to Americanize the recipe measurements … because that’s still what we do here in the states. And, I added my own twists … because that’s what I do. For some reason, I can’t simply make a recipe the way the recipe is written. My creative side can’t seem to contain itself!
