Raw Vegan Cinnamon Rolls!

Image
With the weather cooling down, these are a perfect treat for the whole family! You can customize them in so many ways and they are kid-approved, healthy deliciousness.   You will need a dehydrator for this recipe or a warmer drawer on your oven. A high-powered food processor really helps when making the sauce, but its not absolutely crucial for this recipe. Raw Vegan Cinnamon Rolls 5 Bananas 1 cup medjool dates (soaked for 30 min and then pitted) 2 tbsp softened coconut oil 1/2 tsp vanilla extract Pinch of sea salt 1/2 c water 1. Slice bananas lengthwise into thirds and dehydrate until soft and pliable. 2. While bananas are dehydrating blend remaining ingredients until smooth. 3.

Sprinkle with cinnamon and chopped walnuts. You can also sprinkle with nutmeg, add shredded coconut...

The Easiest Pie For that Leftover Turkey

Thanksgiving was wonderful, but you're left with half of a gigantic bird that's now taking up valuable real estate in your fridge. There are hundreds of recipes you could use, but this is probably one of the easiest and it's absolutely delicious! I love making chicken pot pies, so I got the idea of using leftover turkey, it's so simple yet an ultimate comfort food. The ingredients that you'll need for this recipe are all inexpensive and the prep takes about 5 to 10 minutes tops. Feel free to customize the seasoning depending on your preferences and how the turkey was originally seasoned. I normally buy the pie crusts that come rolled up in a two pack in the refrigerated section. If there's one you prefer, you can certainly use that instead. Here is my ultimate turkey leftover recipe! Turkey Pot Pie 2 Pie Crusts 2 Cups of Turkey (cubed) 1 bag of Frozen Vegetable Mix (Peas, Corn, Green Beans, Carrots) 1 can Cream of Mushroom Soup Salt Pepper 1...

Is Your Dining Room Table Living Up to its Full Potential?

With Thanksgiving fast approaching, it's time to take a heartfelt look at all of the things we sometimes take for granted. One of the biggest things is probably the dining room table. Eating at the table can be a magical experience. Its also very practical and beneficial for everyone. Sharing meals at the table has always been an excellent way to truly connect with others. When we eat with others, we tend to have improved communication. This is important for family and friends alike, but especially for children. Studies have concluded that children who eat at the table 5 or more times a week had better grades and lower rates of smoking, drinking and illegal drug use. Manners were also much more developed. Enjoying meals at the table is also connected to more mindful eating. We generally eat slower and can better understand our body's full signals. We can also focus on the tastes of our food and truly enjoy it. The table is the stage where our meals are allowe...
