Homemade Coconut Milk

March 11, 2014December 14, 2014 Melissa King 34 Comments

If you look at coconut milk in the store, you will notice that pretty much every brand contains carrageenan. Even the organic brands. So the only other option is to make it yourself. The good news is that homemade coconut milk is so easy to do. It only takes a few minutes. The best part about homemade coconut milk is that you can flavor it however you like. I like to add a couple dates for sweetness, but you can also add in some chocolate for a sweeter treat. 🙂 This homemade coconut milk would be great in my coconut vanilla chia pudding or my raspberry coconut smoothie.

Copycat Reese’s Peanut Butter Eggs. Easter is almost upon us and that is when we start to see the candy come out. Reese’s Peanut Butter Eggs are one of those Easter treats. So I made you some copycat vegan Reese’s Peanut Butter Eggs.

I had a hard time even locating the ingredients in the actual Reese’s Peanut Butter eggs online. That should be a red flag right there! I am sure they are less than ideal. S

o I thought I would come up with a homemade version of Reese’s Peanut Butter Eggs. It’s easier than you think! My Copycat Reese’s Peanut Butter Eggs only have 5 ingredients.

Crock Pot Spaghetti & Vegetables. I have been trying to come up with more crock pot recipes lately. This crock pot spaghetti recipe was actually my husband’s idea.

I love this crock pot recipe because it is a one pot meal making cleanup a snap. Not to mention it’s super easy! Slow cooking this allows for more of the flavors to develop as well.

White Chocolate Banana Bread

I have made you some white chocolate banana bread! After I became vegan, I thought anything white chocolate was out of my reach. Sure there are a couple vegan white chocolate chip brands out there, but most of those contain unwanted ingredients. 🙁 So I had to create my own “white chocolate.” As you probably already know, white chocolate goes so well with banana bread. This white chocolate banana bread is super delicious.

Slow Cooker Coconut Granola Bars. I love my slow cooker. I try and make as many things in it as possible. I have made slow cooker soups, slow cooker glazed nuts and slow cooker breakfast quinoa.

However, I had never thought to make cookies or granola bars in the slow cooker! So when I saw this recipe on Lauren Kelly Nutrition, I knew I just had to try it! If you haven’t checked out her blog, you should! Lots of good gluten free recipes.

Super Easy Vegan Nachos

My husband is a lover of Mexican food. Vegan nachos are his thing. In fact, when we go to our favorite vegan restaurant here in Dallas, he always orders the big nacho plate. He created these vegan nachos with that in mind. I promise these vegan nachos will not disappoint. They are also very easy! We used our homemade vegan cheese sauce that is cashew based and totally awesome!
