Feeding Vegan Kids: Sunday Morning Raw Section Plates and Raw Vegan Banana-Blueberry Ice Cream

Today I woke with a spring in my step and little boy requesting ice cream for breakfast.
And I was MORE than happy to make it for him,  because ice cream for breakfast is one of the sweet pleasures in life!
(and also because I really wanted some too)
I made the kiddos a raw vegan feast for [...]

Feeding Vegan Kids: Homemade Chocolate Covered Energy Bars

**Edited to include nut-free version down at the bottom of post **
Hi all!
We are wee bit snowed in this week and have been happily hibernating while the snow flies, so I decided to make a special snack for all my little snack-lovers.  While we do eat our weight in veggies each day, we are all [...]

Homeschooling Conference and Beet Juice For Kids

Hi all,
Sorry for my absence!  We’ve been busy over here in the Green and Crunchy house, and that means that blogging gets shuffled to the bottom of the (lengthy, daunting) To-Do-List.
That To-Do-List is  scary and it NEVER ENDS.
Just like my laundry pile.
With approximately 147 feet of snow here in Columbus, it’s pretty much the arctic [...]

Feeding Vegan Kids: Raw Vegan Breakfast Sundaes

Sundaes on Wednesday!
Today we decided to have sundaes for breakfast.
Because sometimes it’s fun to have a sundae on Wednesday.
Since we homeschool, we don’t have to rush to catch a school bus, which means I can make fun leisurely breakfasts for all my homeschooled punks.
So, early this morning, while the kids bustled around doing morning chores, [...]

Feeding Vegan Kids: Very Seedy Soaked & Uncooked Oats

Happy New Year! Hope your holiday season was lovely!
We had a wonderful winter holiday, and after a nice long stretch of having hubby home over the past couple of weeks, we were sad to see him head back to work this week.  On his first day back to work, we were tempted to hide his [...]

Homemade Vegan Chia Seed & Almond Butter Cups

Hello!  Hope everyone is doing well today!
I had a wonderful response to the “What’s In Your Fridge ?” post and several people played along and posted links to their fridge pictures.  Go check out the comments section of that post if you feel like snooping in their fridges.  I did and it was FUN!
My baby [...]

Raw Vegan Chocolate Avocado Pudding. Delicious, Rich, and Good For You, Too!

It’s Friday!  TGIF!  And since it’s Friday, we had chocolate for breakfast.  Just because. There is nothing quite like chocolate for breakfast, especially when you’re a kid.
I’m not talking about your run-of-the-mill chocolate, I’m talking the good stuff:  antioxidant-rich raw organic cacao, from whole organic cacao beans.  Healthful and indulgent!  And just perfect for breakfast [...]

Banana Breakfast Burritos. Very Vegan & Very Scrumptious!

Hi all!
Hope everyone’s doing well today.  It’s been a busy day around here!  Laundry, homeschooling, meals, outings, more laundry, and some leaf-raking filled our day…
My day started off with a pre-dawn dip into the frosty depths of my freezer.  Around 7:00 a.m. this morning, I was upside-down inside my deep freezer, with nothing but my [...]

Chocolate Coconut Haystacks. Raw. Vegan. Addicting.

I’ve got a chocolatey little somethin’ to share with you.  Try not to drool on your keyboard, okay?
This recipe for chocolate coconut haystacks is FABULOUS.  I came across this gem of [...]

In My Dehydrator: Candied Dried Apples, & Chocolate Ch-Ch-Chia! Oatballs

My dehydrator has been working overtime, cranking out tasty raw treats for my treat-loving brood (and their treat-loving mama!).  On Sunday while my family worked hard outside mowing the lawn, raking leaves, and tending the veggie garden, I was oh so VERY busy inside reading blogs doing laundry and loading the dehydrator with goodies for [...]
