Ever since I made my mini vegan cheesecakes, I have been wanting to create more flavors.  Since we are now in Spring, I knew the next vegan cheesecake I would try would be one with berries.  And that is how this vegan raspberry chocolate cheesecake was born!

Coconut Vanilla Granola (Vegan and Gluten Free)

Coconut Vanilla Granola.  I have to admit, I am more of a vanilla girl than a chocolate girl.  You could probably already tell that from my coconut vanilla overnight oats and my coconut vanilla chia pudding.   I couldn’t get enough of this coconut granola.

It was so good!  My picky 4 year old ate this up fast!

I have to admit, this recipe was actually supposed to be granola bars, but when I went to cut them, they crumbled.  Same thing happened with my Blueberry Cashew Trail Mix.

Since the taste was amazing, I decided to share the recipe as granola.  This homemade granola is bursting with vanilla and coconut.

I just love those ground vanilla beans. They make everything so yummy!  If you haven’t tried them, I highly recommend it.

Gluten Free Apple Cinnamon Waffles

Gluten Free Apple Cinnamon Waffles.  My kids love waffles.  Before we decided to eat clean, I used to buy the pre-made boxed waffles.

For some reason I thought waffles were hard to make yourself.  That could not be further from the truth!  Waffles are super easy and these Gluten Free Apple Waffles are my daughter’s favorite.

I have had an Apple Cinnamon Waffle recipe on my blog for some time now, but I didn’t have one that was gluten free.  Now I do.

Thai Peanut Sauce.  Who doesn’t love Thai food?  Being vegan, Thai restaurants are a godsend because there is almost always something vegan on their menu.

This healthy vegan peanut sauce tastes just as good as the ones in the restaurants and it’s easy to make at home.  Without the refined sugars or additives. 🙂  If you like this, you may also like my Homemade Sriracha Sauce.
