Cowboy Caviar

Cowboy Caviar by Lynn Yamamoto

This is fresh, healthy and delicious. People love it, even kids. You can make it ahead, so it's great for a summer party. Serve it with scoop-shaped tortilla chips, or have it on the side as a relish. I add extra cilantro, because there can never be too much cilantro!

Guacamole from Oaxaca

Guacamole from Oaxaca by John Spottiswood

This is an easy to make, flavorful, and slightly spicy guacamole. Previously I never blended the onion, garlic and cilantro into a puree as this calls for, and I think it does a better job of distributing the flavors evenly. It also reduces the amount of fine mincing required. Even if you've got a trusted guacamole recipe, you…

Raw Vegan Red Cabbage Salad

Raw Vegan Red Cabbage Salad by The Blender Girl

I love simple, raw, shredded salads, and this would be amongst my favorites. The first time I ate a version of this salad, it was made, and served to me, by a very proud 8 year old. That is how quick and easy it is. What I love about this cabbage salad is the vibrant colors. The luscious purple of the cabbage, and the fresh green…

Insalata di arance rosse

Insalata di arance rosse by Frank Fariello

I recently found some blood oranges from California at the market--and I love blood oranges--so I made a blood orange salad as 'dessert': you just peel and slice the oranges, sprinkle over some black olives (Gaeta or nicoise are best), bits of red onion and parsley. Season with a bit (not much) of salt and pour over un filo d'olio.…

Vegan Brown Rice Banana Smoothie

Vegan Brown Rice Banana Smoothie by The Blender Girl

I made this brown rice milk smoothie and it was nothing short of spectacular. OK – so it will be affectionately reserved for the “I don’t care about carb overload” trough for future emotional emergencies. But hey – I might just have to pull it out in times of celebration too! It is really that good. Rich, thick, creamy, and delicious.…

Banana and chocolate pudding

Banana and chocolate pudding by Gourmandelle LifestyleBlog

Bananas, bananas and again bananas! Don’t blame me because I love these sweet creamy fruits! I always make up some kind of dessert when I have bananas in my kitchen and I almost never eat them just as they are. I had some dark chocolate in the fridge and I thought “Why not combine it with bananas? Nothing wrong can happen... right?!”…

These crackers are the perfect combination and you can eat them with almost any salty meal. About tofu....what can I say?! At first I didn't like it so much, but know I enjoy it more than I used to…

Multivitamin Salad

Multivitamin Salad by Gourmandelle LifestyleBlog

Two weeks ago I kept a raw week diet in order to cleanse my body because I felt terribly guilty after eating a lot of crap (meat free though) in the mini-vacation at the seaside. It was a great week during which I filled my body with a bundle of vitamins and minerals, although it was a bit annoying that I didn’t have much time for…

Cranberries Jam

Cranberries Jam by Gourmandelle LifestyleBlog

I don’t eat any jams made with sugar. Sugar is another thing on my forbidden list. It is toxic! I only use natural and unrefined sweeteners, honey for example. All the jams that I make are made from dehydrated – rehydrated fruits, combined with delicious honey and amazing spices. The inconvenient is that they won’t last too long in…

Raspberry and Blueberry Raw Vegan Cupcakes

Raspberry and Blueberry Raw Vegan Cupcakes by Gourmandelle LifestyleBlog

I couldn’t live without fruits! Really! In my opinion fruits are a gift from Heaven! Every time I eat a fruit I thank God for that wonderful gift. I don’t know if it’s that sweet taste that makes me so crazy about them, or that lovely juicy texture, but one thing I do know for sure is that fruits make me happy. As I told you…
