A High Fiber Vegan Diet: How? Why? When? What About Supplemental Fiber?
Last week, I discussed several conditions and circumstances where integrating more fiber would actually detriment oneself more than benefit, despite fiber’s functionality and role in physiological wellbeing. Some people cannot tolerate as much fiber for a certain period of time due to intestinal disorders that forbid otherwise or if they need to ingest a higher…

Sugar Cookie Granola (vegan and gluten free)
A baking endeavor I was willing to experiment with popped up in my mind while I was sleeping a few nights ago. Kid you not, I gasped and nearly jumped out of my bed. It was challenging for me to figure out what to do with the Lakanto sugar cookie mix because it was not…

Cauliflower Rice Sushi (healthy, vegan, and gluten free)
Put me on “My Strange Addiction” because I am officially obsessed with cauliflower rice sushi. Granted it has been a while since we’ve had cauliflower rice in our kitchen…same with raw and crunchy almond butter. By that, I mean it’s been a day. I’m suffering. Sushi tends to be quite expensive and often quite modest…

Peanut Butter Pumpkin Donuts (oil free and gluten-friendly)
It was National Donut Day a little more than a week ago, but I honestly wouldn’t mind whipping up more donuts this time around! To be totally honest, this opinion will be unpopular and I am prepped for the spears and swords coming towards me: donuts are overhyped. Perhaps overrated as well. I don’t know…

Reverse Dieting: My Experience
Trends in the fitness industry come and go all the time. The amount of fads we come across online in regards to nutrition and working out are absolutely insane. One day pre-workout is the holy grail, other days it is a marketing scam. Same with foam rolling or high-intensity interval training. There are a few…

Last Minute Memorial Day Recipe: Vegetable Gochujang Pasta (made with Banza)
Pasta and I have had an interesting history. Ten, fifteen, heck, arguably twenty years-ago, I lived for pasta consumption and just the presence of pasta. Yes, I was possibly destined to become a pasta snob. Macaroni and cheese, fettuccine alfredo, classic marinara, peanut noodles, Pad Thai, pho, chow mein, I loved everything that involved a noodle. However,…

Whole Wheat Baguette Recipe (vegan, oil free + healthy-ish)
Lately I’ve been cutting carbs…into slices, wedges, cubes, quarters, halves, and sometimes just in random pieces when I’m cooking something that will be blended or puréed later. Come on guys. I know a vegan keto diet is possible to follow, but it’s something I don’t want to do anytime soon! But anyways, onto the subject…

Lazy But Gloriously Delicious Meal Ideas
Let me break a stereotype about us foodies. Not all of us like to cook. In fact, a lot of foodies don’t really like it, or alternatively, a lot don’t really know how. Some people are miracle-workers and can put random ingredients in a bowl, mix it up, and it literally belongs in a five-star…
