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 Bean Noodle Veggie Bowl + Homemade Peanut Sauce (gf) When I was working the Los Angeles Green Festival last month with The Coco Jack, we were directly across from the Explore Asian booth. During our shifts, they were kind enough to bring over samples of their noodles. I was only able to try the mung bean noodles, but man oh man were they good. At the end of the festival on Sunday, I headed over their booth to buy a few bags of their mung bean noodles, but they were out! I was going to just head out empty handed, but they insisted I purchase their black bean spaghetti. They said that if I loved the mung bean noodles, I would love these! I trusted them, and I am so glad I did. Black Bean Noodle Veggie Bowl + Homemade Peanut Sauce (gf)
