Plum Banana Nice Cream

It’s August, which means we are right in the thick of summer 🔥🔥

Aside from sun burns and global warming 😩 down here in South Texas we find relief from the blazin’ hot sun on the beaches of South Padre Island, eating some tasty raspas 🍧 or indulging in locally grown watermelons. One of my other favorite go-to treats during warm weather days is banana nice cream. Actually, it’s usually a staple in my diet year round, but I particularly crave it right about this time of year. When I saw some juicy plums at the grocery store a couple of weeks back, I grabbed a few, figuring I’d find something to do with them. I wondered if adding them to nice cream would be weird or wonderful, so I did some googling and discovered it’s definitely doable!

Plum Banana Nice Cream is basically the easiest recipe in the world, so give it a try. It’s creamy and sweet, but kinda tart, and you can add whatever creative toppings you like. Best part is, you get 3 servings of raw fruit with one bowl of nice cream, and it tastes like dessert! If you like this recipe and want more ideas, check out my Turmeric Persimmon Nice Cream or the classic Delicious One Ingredient Banana Nice Cream.

Golden Turmeric Milk

It’s no secret that I love turmeric. I use it in my Cheesy Veggie Tofu Scramble, Turmeric Persimmon Nice Cream, my go-to Cheese Sauce, Fully Loaded Vegan Mac n’ Cheez, and even a Turmeric Face & Tooth Mask. It’s such a powerful antioxidant that consuming turmeric on a daily basis can aide the recovery of brain function and neurodegenerative diseases like Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s, lower blood sugar, curb depression, prevent heart disease, and prevent & treat cancer. No wonder it’s known as “Holy Powder” 🙏

Enter Golden Turmeric Milk. This creamy yellow liquid is a great way to incorporate turmeric into your day, especially if you like warm, cozy drinks ☕️🍵

I actually posted a slightly embarrassing recipe for Turmeric Milk over two years ago. It was one of my first recipes, when I was still sometimes using my phone to take photos for the blog! Check out my fancier, updated version of this drink and give it a try when you want something that is both healing and filling.

Chocolate Chip Cookie Cake

You know it’s gonna be a good cake when it’s the same exact color as your wooden table 👌😂

But really, it’s got those crispy brown edges, caramel color, chocolate chips, and a perfect rise. These are all things you can see, but how does it taste you ask? Well, it’s got that nice moist cakey flavor, bursts of dark chocolate, and tastes amazing with a cold glass of coconut milk. And did I mention this cake is vegan, gluten free, and contains nutrient dense ingredients? Yep, it does 😘

I realize summer is in full swing and that means 90+ degree weather for most people and the last thing you wanna do is turn on the oven and make your house feel like the depths of hell, but trust me, this cake is totally worth it. VegNews liked it so much they published it on their website, and VegNews is pretty legit so check it out below!

Creamy Tomato Shells & Meatballs

I’m going to be honest here… I’m not sure if this recipe even looks appetizing, but I’m posting it anyway because it’s 100% delicious no matter how pink and weird looking it may be. Just close your eyes and imagine perfectly cooked pasta shells in a creamy tomato sauce with sauteed meatballs seasoned in Italian herbs 👌👅

The good news is, your recipe may come out looking totally normal and non-coral. I based this recipe off of Pinch of Yum’s 3 Ingredient Creamy Tomato Shells and well, mine turned out rather awkward… but our attempts don’t always turn out as perfect as the ones on professional food blogs and that’s okay. As long as it’s delicious and/or you had fun making it!

Chia Lemon Muffins

May 29, 2017 by Jillian Leave a Comment

chia lemon muffins

For the longest time I hated lemon flavored sweets. I couldn’t understand why anyone would want to eat lemon candies or lemon desserts or lemon ice cream. I mean, what kind of psycho would choose lemon cake over chocolate cake? It just isn’t right. But slowly, my love for lemons began to shine through my chocolate exterior. Finally, I could admit to myself that lemon squares are delicious. Lemon sorbet? Don’t mind if I do. Raw lemon cheesecake? Even better!

So I decided to make lemon muffins for the first ever last week, and I also added chia seeds because one can never have too many chia seeds. The result? A hearty, flavorful muffin that tastes super amazing with homemade strawberry jam and a cup of coffee ☕️🍓
