Vegan Neapolitan Waffle Sundaes {raw, oil-free} -- 3 Ingredient Waffles! sweetsimplevegan.comHealthy neapolitan waffle sundaes that is vegan, gluten-free AND oil-free?! I know I know, you already knew that from the title, but I just had to repeat it to myself. Prior to going vegan or having any sort of exposure to this lifestyle, I would have never that could be done! Have you ever photographed ice cream? OH MY GOD is what I have to say to that. I plated these Waffle Sundaes and felt like everything was suddenly PANIC mode. I had to do all that I could to beat the melt of the ice cream, luckily I had Chris with me to help to shoot these photos and some for our roundup. I think that we did a good job in the tight time, I am very happy with the photos <3 But most importantly, I was pleased by the outcome of this recipe! I appears indulgent but is made from nothing but healthy ingredients, oil-free, and allll vegan of course. The variation of textures and flavors created such a well rounded dish. I can't wait to make these again for a Vegan Super Bowl Sunday...or as we called it, Souper Bowl Sundae  ;)

Halloween Oreo Cat Cupcakes26Cupcakes + cats? Count me in. I grew up with oreo cupcake cats every halloween, it was our Briones family holiday tradition. So much so that everyone at school would expect it at our yearly celebrations, and boy did we make sure to always deliver ;) The source of this recipe? A good old Nabisco Oreo Box from when I was about 2 years old. Really, this started about 20 years ago, it's really hard to believe. Unfortunately, we misplaced the original recipe cutout that my mom had saved all of these years, but the memory is so vivid in my mind that it was no longer needed to recreate this treat. The original recipe used a prepackaged frosting and cupcake mix, artificial orange stuffed oreos, candy corn, licorice, jelly beans and, well, very unhealthy ingredients. But you guys know me, I had to healthy this up before sharing. Using my homemade healthy oreos, vegan chocolate cupcake + chocolate avocado frosting recipes, homemade candy corn and dried fruit, I successfully made it happen. Halloween Oreo Cat Cupcakes50Th
