I declare this the best party dip and I think you’ll agree! With most traditional dips, you end up eating empty calories that are hard on the digestive system and the waistline.

Also, any leftover vegetables […]

Today’s recipe involves three of my favourite things. Indian curry, a big load of veggies and raw foods. Nik and I love Indian food and over the years I have learned to create many of the traditional Indian dishes using only whole plant-based ingredients. However this time I wanted to keep it 100% raw. The…

Happy Summer Friends! What inspired us to create this Pineapple Kiwi Chia Fresca? These past few days we have been experiencing a serious heatwave, with the outside temperature reaching 29C (84F)! I know some of you might not consider this a crazy high temperature, however for those of us who live in Vancouver this kind…

Hello, beautiful beings. Let’s talk colon health. Why? Because your colon is the key to vibrant life. Yes, keeping your colon healthy and clean is that important!

I will admit, I am currently having a mild love affair with this granola. However, it’s all good, because this is probably the healthiest and most nourishing granola recipe I have created thus far.

This hot chocolate is not your ordinary hot chocolate. It’s loaded with herbs and superfoods which I will touch on later in this post. You can keep this recipe 100% raw by blending all ingredients in a high-speed blender such as Vitamix or Blendtech for 3-5 minutes on high and you will end up with…
This is not a traditional “Butter Chicken” by any means, however, it uses a similar principle of combing plenty of warm spices, a hint of tomato and some dairy-free cream. I think the roasted cauliflower is a great substitute for chicken in this flavour-packed Vegan “Butter Chicken” dish. Plus the addition of peas gives this meal an…
Let’s get real. Nik and I (and Oliver) eat a very clean diet 99% of the time. Yet during the holidays, we love to indulge a little bit. Even though we still eat whole plant-based foods, the amount of food we consume during the holiday season is usually more than usual – which we…
