This ooey, gooey, cheesy sauce can be the base to so many of your favorite meals; macaroni & cheese, nacho cheese, queso dip, green bean casserole, and/or simply eaten plain! The base of this sauce is just carrots, potatoes, and yellow onion — that’s it! You can also add soaked cashews for an extra creamy affect and some healthy fat.
First and foremost, happy September!.. .Autumn weather has arrived here in Seattle and I am definitely craving soup this year! And yes my friends, it is gluten-free and vegan… [and!] it’s entirely fat-free. I promise you, the best thing you can do for your kitchen is invest in a Vitamix.

Not only will your smoothies and juice creations become an entirely new experience, but the Vitamix can puree just about anything until it is silky smooth (as if there was something fattening in there to make it creamy!) It will not disappoint, and more importantly this soup does not disappoint. It’s perfect for chilly Autumn evenings or as a base to a mushroom stroganoff! Continue reading

If there is one question I get asked the most it’s “how do you do it” [eat plant-based]. It’s quite simple really…you have to prepare; or prepare to fail. You have to physically, mentally, and emotionally prepare yourself. Most people think that a vegan or plant-based lifestyle is not sustainable and it takes “too much work” or “you can’t eat anything.” In reality, it’s quite opposite. Continue reading
