Zucchini Noodles with Persimmon Ginger Dressing (hclf, raw)4 ingredients Fat-free Raw vegan Absolutely delicious :) Last year for Christmas I made a Raw Fall Zucchini Pasta + Ginger Persimmon Dressing that my family absolutely LOVED, so I thought I would bring this dish to the Ugly Sweater Vegan Potluck. I simplified the recipe quite a bit, and focused on highlighting the persimmons in. BEST. DRESSING. EVER.

Sweet Pumpkin Chia PuddingI really thought that by the time this fall holiday season ended, I would be all pumpkin'd out, but I'm still on a pumpkin kick! I made another batch of my Pumpkin Pecan Milk and decided I would see how it would turn out as a Sweet Pumpkin Chia Pudding and oh my, this recipe is heaven in a cup. It is so light, yet it's decadent and creamy. My parents thought I was serving them some vegan junk food, and they devoured it!

Black Rice Pilaf + Veganish Book Review & Giveaway"Eat Smart, Get Healthy and Feel Beautiful Inside & Out"

Today I am going to review for you another resource that I recommend as part of my How to Adopt A Plant-Based Diet and Succeed. What I have here today is Veganish: The Omnivores Guide To Plant-Based Cooking. This book is definitely something I wish I had had while transitioning into a plant-based diet from a standard American diet. It covers literally every aspect of plant-based cooking, both nutritionally and culinarily. It basically helps you transition with no fears, worries or temptations. It covers any and every type of recipe you may be craving, and will help you prove to yourself, and the world, that living this lifestyle is not only easy, but it is enjoyable and such a beautiful way to live.

If you have ever dreamed of having a personal chef  to provide you with not only a healthy diet, but one that is great tasting, this book will do just that. Veganish offers a holistic approach to food that will make you healthy AND satisfied. This book will be your go-to guide.
