Vegan Red Velvet & Berry Love Pies56Love is in the air, Happy Valentine's Day! In honor of this holiday, I made a special pink and red treat for you all: Vegan Berry Pie w/ Red Velvet Crust. This recipe is low in fat, nut-free, no-bake, raw, and easy peasy orange squeezy to put together. Feel free to decorate your love pies however you (or your love) would like, but above are ideas on how you could serve these. Details on how I decorated these can be found down below. Vegan Red Velvet & Berry Love Pies53This stuff is my jam! Haha but really, this jam is perfect for a pie filling, and is also a great addition to have in your kitchen. With the leftovers from this recipe, you can use it on toast, over banana ice cream, atop oatmeal, or even better, paired with peanut butter and bananas. It's made of 4 ingredients--

Cissy Lala is a vegan mama of three, living in San Diego, CA, and spreading the vegan message both through her Instagram account and new business, So Cute Co. I came across Cissy on Instagram when I first started my account, through Ellen Fisher, and I have been following her ever since. What I love most is that she is real and straight to the point about her life and her beliefs. She shows families just how easy and important it is to raise your children with a foundation of knowledge in nutrition. She even includes kid-friendly recipes in her posts, like the one below that you guys will love!

Without further or do, let's meet Cissy and make some muffins!

One Bowl Vegan Holiday Fruit Bread (gluten- and refined sugar-free)Every year for Christmas, someway or another, my family ends up with a boxed Fruit Cake. Have you ever tried these? If you haven't, I'd advise you to pass on it and try this Holiday Fruit Bread instead. Not only is this recipe easier than the traditional recipe, it is also gluten-free, refined sugar-free and delicious.One Bowl Vegan Holiday Fruit Bread (gluten- and refined sugar-free)

Cocoa Cherry Protein Holiday Fudge (Gluten-free) My next recipe for this Holiday season, a Cocoa Cherry Holiday Fudge that is gluten-free AND packed with plant-based protein! So far, I have shared my Healthy Gingerbread Smoothie (low-fat) and my Easy Vegan Holiday Chocolate Bark, with a few more up my sleeve these next 5 days! Fudge has been an integral part of my family's Christmas celebrations ever since I can remember. My mom's friend Kathy makes a fudge that my dad absolutely cannot resist, but ever since I went vegan and my family has been more mindful of our diet, he knows that her fudge is not what he should be eating. He asked if I could make a protein packed vegan fudge recipe, so I played around in the kitchen and came up with this.
