Eggs and Peppers

Somedays cooking for one can be tedious. I sometimes get so lazy that I end up just opening up a can of tuna and eating it with a bowl of salad. Today I decided not to be so lazy and make dinner instead. This is an easy and quick light dinner that you can make….

Eggless Chickpea Quiche

Dehydrating Things

Why dehydrate your food? I dehydrate fruits because they are going to spoil. I dehydrate mostly in the summer and fall month when there is an abundance of fruits and veggies. I love dehydrating watermelon and apples. They make healthy snacks for work but recently I got into dehydrating veggies (until my dehydrator died). During…

Going dairy free can be hard. Especially when you love the rich creamy taste of milk in your coffee.  I have been looking for an alternative for quite a while.  The soy creamers that are available are usually full of sugar (which as you know I cannot have). I tried hemp milk, almond milk, cashew…
