Vegan Smoked Salmon & Cream Cheese

January 28, 2021 by Jillian Leave a Comment

vegan smoked salmon & cream cheese

carrot lox

I finally did it! I have been wanting to make carrot lox for quite a while now, but it seemed complicated, so I never did. That is, until I was recently looking up carrot lox recipes on Youtube and found this easy one by the Edgy Veg. I decided to give it a try and WOW – I’m so glad I did! Made some cashew cream cheese while I was at it and let me tell you, this is the perfect breakfast, brunch, lunch, there’s no bad time for vegan lox.

I’m somewhat of a lox connoisseur, having grown up with a Jewish dad and a grandma from New York, I was scarfing down lox and bagels almost since birth. Lucky for me, this recipe for vegan smoked salmon & cream cheese imitates the same smoky, tangy, flavorful non-vegan version I remember. And it doesn’t take as much effort as you would think!

Buffalo Cauliflower Bites

vegan buffalo cauliflower bites

“Wings” made from cauliflower are pretty popular around Super Bowl time to replace the non-version wings that are served up at all the parties. I’m a couple of months late for the Super Bowl, so maybe these can be Easter wings??? In my opinion, cauliflower wings are perfect any time of the year, including these buffalo cauliflower bites. They have just the right amount of tang and spiciness. They are also very filling, which causes a quandary because they are so delicious it is hard to stop eating them! Check out my brand new recipe video below for these tasty little bites 💃

Candy Corn Fruit Juice

May 26, 2019 by Jillian Leave a Comment

candy corn fruit juice

I realize this post may be deceiving because candy corns are associated with Halloween, which is in October, and I’m posting this in May. The “candy corn” part of the recipe is aesthetics only – it tastes like full on summer, trust me. I decided to shoot some footage of me creating this recipe awhile back, and recently felt motivated to edit it together, so here’s to Halloween in May!

This fruit juice is sweet (also hence the word “candy” in the title) and tropical tasting, so kids will love it too, and it’s full of detoxifying properties and immune boosting vitamins. Plus, it’s easy to make and has simple ingredients. Serve it at your Halloween party or as a healthy alternative to sugary, artificial candy and processed juices. Either way, it will have you feeling energized and glowing! Check out the video and the full recipe below.

Homemade Almond Butter

August 3, 2018 by Jillian Leave a Comment

homemade almond butter

Homemade Almond Butter has become a staple in my house. I make it about once every week or two, and it’s cheaper and much tastier than buying it at the store! This almond butter tastes perfect with sliced apples, on a sandwich with banana, or even as a sauce on dark chocolate – yum! And I have a couple of secret tips to make sure each batch always comes out delicious!

Vegan Cream Cheese with Dill Crackers

Vegan Cream Cheese with Dill Crackers

vegan cream cheese

When I made this recipe, I took the leftover green onions that I didn’t use and put them in my compost pile. Well, a few months later, a completely new green onion plant grew from it! It reminded me how delicious this recipe was and that I needed to post it. I looked up a few different vegan cream cheese recipes online and incorporated ideas from all of them to create this recipe. The result? A smooth, creamy cheese that is perfect for a party, get together, appetizer, or just a snack. The dill crackers go with this dish perfectly, and they are so easy to make! Let’s get crackerin’! See what I did there?

Was waiting in line at Walmart when I saw this Bey Was waiting in line at Walmart when I saw this Beyond Meat jerky. It's been probably a good decade since I had regular jerky, but this tasted pretty legit. However, don't eat an entire bag at once as a substitution for actual lunch bc you'll probably get a stomachache like I did 😝
