Foodie turned Holistic Nutritionist
This is a quick and easy sugar free chocolate smoothie recipe for you that is going to totally re-energize your tastebuds and your health. I came up with the idea after being on day 5 of my teatox and was craving chocolate BAD. Since all chocolate has some sugar in it (at least the one’s in my cupboard), I decided to try out Affect Health’s Drinking Chocolate as it is sugar free and it did not disappoint!

Although were heading into spring, it hasn’t exactly felt like spring yet to me so I decided to try out a new vegan chocolate banana bread recipe because I was in a baking mood and wanted something comforting. There is something about banana bread baking away that screams comfort food to me, probably because I used to love when my mom would whip some up for us when we were younger. The smell that overtakes the house is absolutely magnificent and I could eat the whole loaf in a matter of days no problem. I love adding chocolate chips to mine, but if you prefer to leave them out, no worries, it will still taste amazing.

Ohhhh granola, you are crunchy, satisfying, sweet and make a perfect topping to almost anything, plus when you are baking away, you make the whole place smell incredible. With this healthy granola recipe, there is absolutely no need to ever buy store-bought granola again, because not only does this taste better (I promise) it’s actually much more nutritious and can even be cheaper as well. Store bought granola can contain a frightening amount of added sugar and other additives which often people mistake as healthy and then eat more of it then they should (thanks to the sugar). It’s actually a common misconception that store bought granola is healthy, mostly because its labeled and marketed in such a clever way that people look past the ingredients and focus instead on the fluff. Hey, I used to buy granola bars all the time and would often keep them in my bag when the mood struck for something sweet and healthy. Unfortunately, the hunger would only subside for a short time and then I would be craving more and more, and having more than one was no big deal, because they were healthy (they contained like 4 grams of fibre, right?!?). Now that I know better, I do better and I put together this insanely delicious and slightly addictive healthy granola recipe for you to have instead of that store-bought “healthy granola.”

That’s a pretty bold statement I know. But with this one, I can back it up. You see I have quite a love affair with veggie burgers and over the years I have had some good ones and I have definitely had some bad ones. You may not know this about me, but for about five years I was a strict vegetarian and then vegan so I have had my share of good and bad veggie burgers. I would always prepare myself for the onslaught of comments with some of my friends about my choice in choosing a plant based diet or the look of disgust when I whipped out a veggie burger at a BBQ. But this veggie burger might just make the biggest skeptic a believer…I know another bold statement, but hear me out.
