Lunar Noodling – Heirloom Apple/Butternut Pasta & Sunflower Seed Butter Sauce

Happy Lunar New Year! This time of year marks that particular moment when many of us (myself included) choose to observe onset of a new full calendar reset – and in this case the Year of The Monkey. In honour of kindred primates worldwide, this seems more than an appropriate time to celebrate with the best possible food to fuel primates of all species (including humans): FRUIT!   As it seems that ritual accompanies the onset of each new year, symbolism always plays an integral role in the way many of us are...

Raw & Vegan Thousand Island

Thousand Island?   I always found this particular dressing to be incredibly odd, right down to the name. What exactly is it? How did it come to be known by such a strange name? Does it ever go off? Is that colour really natural?

Happy (nearly) Full Moon! Wouldn’t it be wild if the moon just happened to be made of (raw vegan) cheese? 😉 Whilst musing such mirthful fancies, I’ve decided that this week would be as good a time as any to share an exceedingly simple, low-fat, creamy & seemingly decadent raw vegan formulation with all of you! I’m posting a few days early (just in time for #VeganRecipeHour), since I wanted to have something up for the occasion and shall once again be working away at a client’s place...

Raw Cacao Crunch Bars

Happy Spring! I know it’s been ages, and that is mainly because I’ve been on hiatus. Having lived quite simply through the Winter, these days I eat mostly simple fruits and home fermentations whilst focusing my energy on coursework, counselling, and a few other projects. That said, it became rather imperative for me to make a point of arranging something extra special for my Vernal Equinox blog post (you deserve it, and I am so grateful), despite still living in a sort of Luddite bliss with neither a...
