Raw Mango Cheesecake
Just before the holidays, my partner and I had some friends over for a BBQ dinner. I decided to make a mango-based dessert because they’re at their peak in Australia right now. And because it’s been so warm out (sorry Polar Vortex sufferers), a raw mango cheesecake seemed like the perfect treat. I’ve been a … Read more
Rocket & Cashew Spread
This arugula / rocket and cashew spread is delicious served with crostini bread or crackers, or used as a sandwich spread. It’s vegan and naturally gluten-free. I haven’t blogged about arugula (rocket) very much before, but it’s really popular in Australia, so I’ve been eating a lot more of it since moving back here a … Read more
Asian Cashew Quinoa Salad
Yesterday’s lunch was inspired by Julie Hasson’s Peanut Sesame Noodles. I halved the dressing and swapped the noodles and peanut butter for quinoa and cashew butter. I also added some red bell pepper (capsicum), carrots, and purple cabbage for color, and some additional raw cashews for extra crunch. The result is an Asian Cashew Quinoa … Read more

Mushroom Mini Quiches
Warning: this is another post for mushroom-lovers. If you’re not a fan of them, then you may want to escape to chocolate-land and forget that you ever saw this. Ok, onto the fungi. Once again, I have gone overboard at the farmer’s markets, and last week I found myself with way too many mushrooms. What can I … Read more

Nooch Disclaimer: If you missed my post on Nutritional Yeast, and you’re not familiar with that ingredient, you may want to check it out before reading further because this Vegan Mac & Cheese recipe is very “nooch” dependant.
