Super satisfying, healthy, and delicious meal that only uses 10 ingredients and only about 10 minutes to prepare! It is Vegan and Gluten- free! For the past week I have been trying to stay away from breads, baked goods, and pasta. It has been SO hard, but I have also really enjoyed the foods I’ve…
Vegan Strawberry Cake

Vegan Chocolate Chip Banana Pancakes
Bananas are my absolute favorite fruit.

Vegan Crumble Top Apple Pie
Oh, apple pie. Apple pie is a classic American favorite and for good reasons too.

My goal when making this recipe was to embody everything that makes apple pie a classic,…
