Keep Up with the Latest Posts

March 1st is literally around the corner and the site will be open to the public and you no longer will be logging in to enjoy your recipes.
In the meantime, we are busy working in the background. One thing that is in question (on our end) is the FAVORITES FEATURE that allows you to compile a list of your favorite recipes on the site. We are not positive if this feature can or will remain on the site once the change over happens.
So… if YOUR favorite list is important to you, please copy and paste the links to your computer. Once I find out more information I will let you know! Have a wonderfully happy day! amie sue

~ raw, vegan, gluten-free, nut-free, sugar-free ~ I know, I know, this is just too easy to even consider it a recipe but when two ingredients come together to create one thing… then it’s a recipe in my book. :)  And if nothing else, it will spark the good ole’ creative… read more »

Spiced Chocolate Bouchons with Espresso Soaked Raisins

 Members Only, Cake & Pies

~ raw, vegan, gluten-free ~ The bouchons strike a subtle balance between chocolate, warming spices and the hint of creamy coffee.  This combination has a warm, comforting flavor which is perfect for topping with Espresso Buttercream Frosting!   To me, these taste like a gingerbread man went swimming in a… read more »

Tapioca Almond Custard with Rhubarb Strawberry Sauce

 Members Only, Pudding & Mousse

~ raw, vegan, gluten-free ~ The story of this recipe is one of evolution.  I started out wanting to make a raw pannacotta, but right off the bat, I over-processed my kelp paste.  So instead of a “strong” form, it had the consistency that reminded me of soft custard.  I… read more »

Spicy Fiesta Corn Pizza

~ raw, vegan, gluten-free ~ This isn’t your typical pizza, and it surely isn’t the what I grew up eating in the name of pizza. Remember Totino’s Pizza?  Back in the day, I think we paid a whopping 50 cents for a whole pizza. What does that tell you about… read more »

Creamy Vanilla Raisin Ice Cream

 Members Only, Frozen Desserts

~ raw, gluten-free, grain-free, dairy-free ~ Plain vanilla ice cream has always gotten a bad rap if you ask me.  They are often pegged as boring or uninteresting.  I for one beg to differ.  They offer a creamy, velvety base that can be soothing and comforting on its own or… read more »

Sunday Morning Bread

 Members Only, Artisan Breads

~ raw, vegan, gluten-free ~ Sunday Morning Bread… why did I name this recipe, Sunday Morning Bread?  For some reason, it just reminded me of a special treat that might be shared with the family on a Sunday morning. Throughout the week, our days get away from us, and we… read more »

Spaghetti with Vegan Meatballs (Night-Shade Free)

 Members Only, Italian Cuisine, Main & Side Dishes

~ raw, vegan, gluten-free, nut-free ~ This dish was inspired by a subscriber (C0c0) who asked me if I could create a pasta tomato sauce without tomatoes, and ketchup too!  I will be honest, at first, I thought that she was trying to pull my leg, but after I had… read more »

Buttery Walnut Flatbread

 Members Only, Artisan Breads

~ raw, vegan, gluten-free, paleo ~ The title of this recipe may indicate that there is butter within the flatbread… this isn’t the case.  The reason I used the word, buttery, is because the walnuts lend that flavor to the recipe. But that isn’t all…  walnuts are, in fact, the most… read more »

Honey Corn Flatbread

 Members Only, Artisan Breads

~ raw, gluten-free ~ Even though honey is not the main ingredient by volume, the slight sweet hint of it compels me to shine the spotlight upon it. I use to think that honey was honey.  It wasn’t until I brought the raw food lifestyle into my diet that I… read more »

Spicy Fiesta Corn Dip

 Members Only, Main & Side Dishes, Mexican Cuisine, Thanksgiving

~ raw, vegan, gluten-free, nut-free ~ Light, refreshing, slightly sweet almost describes this dish, but in the end, it is more like a fiesta party in your mouth.

The Reuben sandwich is normally a hot sandwich of corned beef, Swiss cheese, with Russian or Thousand Island dressing, and sauerkraut.  All grilled between slices of rye bread.  Of course numerous variations exist., and I am here to set the new norm, well for me anyway.

Thousand Island Cole Slaw

 Members Only, Main & Side Dishes, Salads

~ raw, vegan, gluten-free ~ The origin of the term “Cole Slaw” comes from the Dutch word, koolsla, which was a shortened version of the term koolsalade, which literally meant “Cabbage Salad.”  I have seen it spelled out as one word (coleslaw) or two words (cole slaw) and to be honest I can’t… read more »

Caramel Chocolate Candy Bars

 Members Only, Candy, Chocolate

Bob loves to share his raw treats with others, well except for these, which I found him hoarding.  He even stashed a few in the freezer, thinking they were for safekeeping… from others. Haha For about two weeks, he kept walking by with one in hand, and he would say,… read more »
