My favorite item at Sunday brunch growing up -- french toast! Not only does this recipe no longer require eggs, it does not have to be fried, either. Want to know my secret to the PERFECT low fat vegan french toast? BANANAS! This past weekend, Chris and I took an impromptu trip to Big Bear, CA to spend the Fourth of July weekend with my family and enjoy the festivities held at the lake. My mom surprised us with homemade bread on Saturday morning and Chris had a brilliant idea -- let's make french toast!

Healthy 3-Ingredient Vegan Pancakes {gluten- & oil-free} sweetsimplevegan.comAn easy, no-fuss recipe that is filling, comforting, and does not skimp on flavor one bit. I was actually very surprised by how fluffy these pancakes turned out to be, considering I did not use any baking soda. I have been seeing oat-banana-nut-milk pancakes all over Instagram and I finally had to try my hand at it + the fancy food styling that always comes along with it as well ;) The day I made these in the kitchen was also a day where Chris and I worked on 2 other recipes, his Epic Thanksgiving Leftovers Pizza and his Easy to Make Potato Leek Soup in Sourdough Bread Bowls as shown in the recipe video I put together for this (below). My favorite out of them had to be his bread bowl soup ;P

jackfruithowtographicJackfruit is definitely an intimidating fruit! It's appearance is jurassic, as I have heard it described, and it is the largest born tree fruit in the world. Did you know that they are capable of reaching 100 pounds? Oh what I would do for 100 pounds of jackfruit :) But have no fear, Sweet Simple Vegan is here to help you cut through your very first jackfruit at home!Jackfruit17

Protein Chocolate Chips61I threw together a random recipe for breakfast, and it was too good for me not to blog about. So what did I do? I made it again for lunch so that I could share it with all of you ;) This recipe only requires a few ingredients, and is actually good for you, as opposed to the dairy, fat-filled, cruelty-filled ice cream at the supermarket. I listed this recipe as a dessert, but it is high carb, low fat, and mostly raw, so I say eat this whenever the heck you want. Really, do it!
