Fabulous Vegan Recipes

Tis the season for the shamrock shake, lots of drinking and overindulging.  It's so easy to make the shamrock shake into a healthy treat for yourself that I could not miss the opportunity to share this healthy, whole foods recipe with you. I'm back to training for the May Brooklyn half marathon so whole, healthy plant foods are the name of my game for at least the next two months.  I'm going to lay off the sugar and save the super sweet fruits (dates, bananas) for before my runs to give me energy. Stay tuned for lots of whole grain recipes, beans and recipes with healthy fats and lots of fiber.

Irish potatoes....they are not potatoes at all but a sweet dessert that resembles potatoes in appearance only. Apparently they are a Philadelphia/South Jersey dessert as not everyone is aware of what irish potatoes are. I grew up eating these tasty truffles around St. Patty's Day and they are so easy to make vegan and healthy. They are made from cream cheese mixed with coconut, sugar and rolled in cinnamon, some recipes call for butter but you don't need it. I made this recipe mostly raw so feel free to check out what these yummy morsels are all about.
