Maqui & Cherry Chia Pudding
Christ is in our midst! The endless creativity you can do with chia pudding is mind blowing. Once you enter the realm of making chia pudding, using my recipe that has been perfection, you can get lost in creativity for this recipe alone!

Love is patient \\ Greek Roasted Artichokes with Lemon and Basil
Christ is in our midst! Spring has passed, and we are in summer mode. Springtime, alongside summer, is when I really enjoy having artichokes. Spring to me is defined by different things. One, helios me thondia, which translates to sun with teeth. It is bright and sunny, but when you step out, there’s a “bite”…

Kale & Seed Crisps by Julie Morris
Christ is in our midst! I think my stomach has been serenading Bee Gees songs to me lately. My stomach has been so happy since I have been listening to the prescription of eating more greens and drinking more water. I am glad that I have finally listened because I have so much energy and…

Hot Chocolate / from Lakanto
Christ is in our midst! Fasting from foods is what majority of people think of when fasting during Great Lent. Speaking humbly, as someone who lives a plant based lifestyle, it is much easier to fast from food than from our passions. We each have our own demons to battle with, be it despair, envy,…

Sun-Dried Tomato Bread
Christ is risen! Summer is here, which means tomatoes are making an appearance and beginning to be in abundance. I am not a raw tomato person per se, except I don’t mind the occasional pasta all pomodoro, salsa, and ketchup. It’s odd that I am okay with cooked tomatoes but raw gives me nausea by…

Carrot and Spinach Breakfast Muffins
Christ is Risen! Glory be to God! Another recipe to share from Phaidon’s “The Greek Cookbook”. So far, nothing has been a disappointment from this cookbook. The recipes are easy to make vegan for someone who has an intolerance to dairy. The flavor combination of dill and cumin and the Greek yogurt is a mixture…

Raspberry Lemon Yerba Mate
Christ is Risen! I have recently decided to give coffee a break, yet again. It tastes so good and nice to have as part of my morning routine but I have noticed my anxiety levels going up more than usual so coffee has got to go! Yerba mate, along with matcha, is an alternative caffeine…
