Cooking is one of my favorite things to do. It is well known by my family and friends that Whole Foods is a second home to me, but I don't go just there for the (eco-) friendly people, the extensive food bar, the kombucha teas, or the comfort of organic produce. I am a vegan, and I also have food allergies. I first found solace in the allergy-friendly products at Whole Foods, but have since been inspired to experiment in the kitchen on my own. I didn't know there were so many gluten-free, soy-free, and even raw vegans out there, but I am happy to say that after a great deal of exploration, I have mastered the art of refining google searches and tailoring my recipe inquiries to my dietary needs. I have been working off of recipes I have found through these searches, but I am hoping to eventually take some off-book risks. I hope my blog works it's way to the screens of other individuals like me who are investigating and discovering innovative, natural realms of wellness.
Since I have been contemplating creating this page, I started photographing some of the things I have been cooking (well, also because I am very proud of my latest achievements). Highlights include:
 |
| the timeless avocado sushi |
 |
| almost-raw vegan pumpkin pie |
 |
| raw cashew cheese |
Tonight's feature was brown rice pasta with avocado pesto. At first, it seems counterintuitive to mix avocado with pasta, but I have learned to trust the foodie blogs and websites (who knew agave and balsamic vinegar make such a wonderful pairing in rice dishes?). It turned out wonderfully. Next time I think i'll use a spiralizer and try it with raw zucchini pasta.
That's all for tonight. I must say, I am eager to share these pictures with more than just the photo album on my phone.
