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!

Savory Baked Plantain Chips

November 8, 2019 by Jillian Leave a Comment

baked plantain chips

So, I tried to make baked tostones, but I sliced them too thin and didn’t mash them, so I ended up with plantain chips! Still delicious, but very different from the original tostones. Plantains look like bananas and are in the same family, but do not contain as much sugar and are not eaten raw like bananas. When cooked, however, they are delicious! These plantain chips are crunchy, slightly browned, with a thin coat of olive oil and salt, and go great with guacamole!!

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.

Apple Pie Muffins

Even though it’s warm and sunny today where I live and I’m wearing shorts and a tank top, it’s technically winter and I wanted to post a recipe that has winter vibes ☕️

I’ve been making a lot of chocolate chip cookies lately and wanted to mix it up a little. So I took the same basic batter I use for that recipe, incorporated apple, and made some delicious muffins that taste and smell like apple pie! The best part about it is that when you’re preparing the apple mixture on the stove, your house will smell like an apple cinnamon candle! These muffins are really filling, too, because they have healthier ingredients than your typical muffins. They are great for breakfast, an afternoon snack, or even dessert!

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!

SERIAL KILLERS. Oh, do I have your attention?? 🧐 I visited the prison cemetery in Huntsville a few months back and discovered not only are 2 infamous serial killers buried there, but a cowboy from the prison rodeo who was killed by fellow inmates, and it was the first resting place of a prominent Kiowa chief named Satanta who committed suicide by jumping out the window at the Huntsville Penitentiary rather than spend life in prison. The link in my bio will take you to the full story and more photos from my visit to the cemetery 🪦

The second is Greek Red Lentil soup that tastes like a gourmet tomato soup 🍅 and also has carrot, rosemary, lemon, and a hint of cumin. Both soups have kale because that makes them 💯% better.

One of the things that has interested me about the One of the things that has interested me about the horrific scene at the Capitol yesterday is the connection between veganism and colonialism. Some of the mob members yesterday were proudly covered in the skins of dead animals. To me, it's no surprise that white male supremacists are speceiests at their core. They believe they are inherently superior. They have historically compared people of color to animals, and treated them as sadistcally as they treat animals. In America, the government orchestrated the slaughtering of 60 million buffalo for no other reason than as a way to starve Indians into submission. Among other things, white supremacy and colonialism is linked to an obsession with killing, hunting, and dominating over others. So here are some bomb homemade VEGAN Butterfinger I made yesterday. Free of cruelty and made from plants. I'm not just vegan for the animals, I'm vegan for people because it is all connected.
